What is CDS?
A Customer Display System (CDS) is a digital display typically placed at the checkout counter in restaurants. It is designed to show customers the details of their transaction as it is being processed, such as menus, prices, and total amount.
Key Features:
- Transaction Details: Displays real-time transaction information to customers, providing transparency and reducing errors.
- Promotional Messages: These can be used to showcase promotional offers, discounts, or advertisements to customers during checkout.
- Interactive Features: Allow customers to enter membership information.
Only Android terminal with second screen display with Android 10 and above are supported for the CDS system.
