The touch-screen terminal and dynamic display boom
In the restaurant trade, especially the fast food sector, touch-screen order terminals have become a powerful and almost omnipresent digital solution.
Touch-screen order terminals are both easy to use and flexible, they present many advantages for both the customer and the restaurant.
The features of our interactive terminals specially designed for the restaurant trade
Touch-screen ordering terminals can be used to:
- Propose a quality service thanks to a personalised ordering experience
- Reduce food preparation times
- Optimise queues and waiting times
- Increase orders and therefore turnover
- Stand out from the competition
- Make your brand image more dynamic
Optimising the ordering process
The touch-screen ordering terminal is an effective way to present your product offer. The interface makes menus easier to understand. The choice of dishes, beverages and side-orders is image-based. Clients can make their choices or modify them easily. Points of sale have noticed that order entry errors have dropped significantly, processes are optimised and efficiency has increased. All of the terminals are linked up to the cash-register via a dedicated software application and the order is automatically prepared as soon as the customer pays. Restaurant-owners appreciate being able to use the same dedicated software application to immediately update terminals with promotional offers or replacement products if any go out of stock.
Present the latest special offers
Fast-food restaurant managers can present new products along with any currently effective special offers on their touch-screen terminals. Customers see these by simply navigating around the menu. In this way customers can be encouraged to go for a particular dish or special offer and this will have an effect on your turnover. A restaurant touch-screen terminal will allow you to easily implement “push marketing” operations such as “Add a dessert or a beverage for just €1” type offers.
The advantages of touch-screen terminals for the restaurant trade
Personalise the customer experience
Touch-screen terminals have ergonomically designed interfaces which encourage interaction with customers. They can personalise their orders (sauces, side-orders or special ingredients). Customer loyalty programs can be used to save order profiles and reward customer loyalty.
Save time
Touch-screen terminals can save a considerable amount of time for customers. Every stage of interaction with the interface has been optimised, right through from product selection to payment. Point of sale staff can therefore be more available to prepare the orders and customer flows within the restaurant will be more fluid.
Strengthen your brand image
Customers read advertising messages displayed during the order process more easily. As well as menus, the screen can communicate and strengthen your restaurant’s intrinsic values. Earning the trust of your customers and showing your transparency is primordial. With these terminals you can display the origins of your products and the presence of any allergens (this has been a legal obligation since 2015) And you can also choose to specifically indicate which dishes are vegetarian, vegan or gluten-free, etc.

Touch-screen terminals save a considerable amount of time for customers as well as optimising staff efficiency!
The customer makes their order and pays for it directly with the terminal, they can then go and pick up their order or eat-in. Ordering and payment queues are thus reduced and customer flow within the restaurant will be more fluid!
