Your Owner Kiosk comes pre-configured, so first-time setup is mostly connecting to Wi-Fi, entering your location code, and choosing a few service preferences.
Requirements
Owner Kiosk
Your staff PIN or your location-specific device code. The device code is tied to your location and is available in your Owner Dashboard.
Before you start
Check that your shipment has these three items:
Kiosk tablet
Card reader
Power cable
ℹ️ Note: You don't need to remove the bezel or cover to set up the Kiosk. You do everything in the on-screen settings menu.
Step 1: Power on the Kiosk
The tablet and connected card reader turn on automatically as soon as you plug in the tablet. There's no separate power button.
Plug the tablet's power cable into a standard electrical outlet.
Step 2: Open the Kiosk app
When the tablet finishes starting up, find the Kiosk app icon on the home screen.
Tap the icon to open the app.
Step 3: Open settings and connect to Wi-Fi
The settings menu stays hidden during service so guests can't open it by accident.
Open the setup menu
Tap the top-right corner of the screen four times within about one second.
Enter your staff PIN or location-specific device code when prompted. A toggle on the verification screen switches between the two, and the Kiosk remembers your last choice.
Connect to Wi-Fi
In the Kiosk settings menu, tap Device settings to open the tablet's Android settings.
Join your Wi-Fi network, then return to the Kiosk app.
ℹ️ Note: The Device settings row only appears on Android devices.
Step 4: Set your Kiosk preferences
With the Kiosk connected, tap each setting to match how you serve guests. In the Order type and Table numbers pickers, tap Done to save or Cancel to discard the change.
Setting | What to set |
Menu | Choose which menu the Kiosk shows. |
Card reader | Check that the card reader shows as Connected via Bluetooth. Tap the row to reconnect if needed. |
Order type | Choose All, Dine-in only, or Take-out only. New kiosks default to All. |
Table numbers | Choose On or Off to match your service. This row is hidden when Order type is Take-out only. |
Inactivity timer | Set how many seconds without a tap pass before the Are you still ordering? prompt appears. The default is 20 seconds and the minimum is five seconds. The 10-second countdown that follows is fixed. |
ℹ️ Note: To learn how the Kiosk clears guest info between orders, see What is the Owner Kiosk and how do guests order?
Step 5: Go live
When your preferences are set, exit settings so guests can start ordering.
Tap Back in the bottom bar of the Settings screen. The guest-facing screen opens, and the Kiosk is ready for guests when the home screen appears.
Reopen settings or log out
Settings stay hidden during service. To change a preference or log out, tap the top-right corner of the screen four times, about one second apart, then enter your staff PIN or location code.
To sign the Kiosk out, tap Log out in Settings and confirm. Do this when you need to switch to a different location or station.
