What is a beacon?
Beacons are tiny Bluetooth based radio devices which emit a unique signal. When are then placed strategically throughout our BUCO stores, for example, they can be used to tailor unique experiences for our customers.

The BUCO app is designed to be non-intrusive and simply waits in the background for a nearby beacon to be detected. Its important to note that battery use is conserved by enabling radio only when in the vicinity of a beacon using our Geo Fencing software.

Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
