Bizerba CE Series Compatibility with Clover POS
Pole and bench display models supported—barcode format determines app selection
Question
A neighborhood market just installed a Bizerba CE Series scale to weigh and label items like fresh produce and deli meats. One store uses the bench-top model, while another location uses the pole display version. Both stores operate on Clover POS and want to ensure smooth label scanning at checkout. They’re unsure whether their barcodes include total price or total weight—will this still work?
Answer
Yes—the Bizerba CE Series is compatible with Clover POS when paired with the appropriate CSI Works barcode parser app. These scales are configurable to print barcodes that contain either total price or total weight, and CSI Works supports both formats.
To ensure proper integration with Clover’s Register app, select the correct CSI Works app once your barcode format is confirmed:
Variable Price Barcode Parser – for barcodes that include total price
Weight Embedded Barcode Parser – for barcodes that include total weight
The CE Series is available in two configurations. Both support the same barcode functionality and label printing features.
Configuration | Description |
---|---|
Bench Model | Compact form with integrated display |
Pole Model | Elevated customer-facing display |
Both versions are identical in terms of barcode output and integration steps.
Barcode Format | Use This CSI Works App |
---|---|
Barcode contains total price | Variable Price Barcode Parser |
Barcode contains total weight | Weight Embedded Barcode Parser |
Here’s what to do:
Print a sample label from your CE Series scale
Look at the barcode—does it show the price or the weight?
If unclear, send a photo of the label to CSI Works and we’ll identify it for you
For full Clover POS compatibility:
Set your items in Clover Inventory as Variable Price Type
Use the Product Code field (not SKU) to match the PLU programmed in the scale
Choose and install the correct CSI Works barcode parser app based on barcode format
Once setup is complete, the scale labels will scan directly into Clover with the correct product and pricing.

Whether you’re using the bench or pole version of the Bizerba CE Series, your scale is fully supported. Just confirm the barcode format and install the right CSI Works app for a smooth, automated checkout experience.
