Overview

NexKiosk turns a tablet into a point of sale. Operate it in two modes:
  • POS mode — staff-operated. Ring up purchases for members and guests, take card payments, and manage invoices.
  • Kiosk mode — self-service. Customers pick their own products and pay at the counter.

NexKiosk is only supported in landscape mode.

​
Choosing a mode

When the tablet opens, you choose between POS and Kiosk mode. Both modes then ask you to select a payment provider.

​
POS mode

A full point-of-sale interface with a sidebar drawer giving access to:
  • Sales — browse products, add to basket, apply discounts, and take payment.
  • Customers — search for members and contacts, view their details, and charge their account.
  • Invoices — view past and upcoming invoices, including those created outside NexKiosk (when “show all invoices” is enabled).
  • Products — browse the full product catalogue with stock levels.

​
Customer types

POS mode distinguishes between:
  • Members — logged in with their credentials. Purchases can be charged to their account (added to bill) or paid immediately.
  • Guests / Quick Sale — no login required. A designated default customer is used, and payment is taken on the spot. Quick Sale requires a connected card reader.

​
Team billing

For teams with merged invoicing, POS identifies the paying member and attributes charges accordingly. Non-paying team members can still make purchases that are billed to the team.

​
Kiosk mode

A streamlined self-service flow:
  1. Customer picks Member and signs in with their email and password (or picks Guest for a quick sale when enabled).
  2. Browse available products and add to basket.
  3. Pay by card or have the charge added to their account.

​
Payment providers

NexKiosk supports the following payment providers: The payment provider is selected per-location in the Admin Panel. Some features (like Quick Sale) require a physical card reader to be connected.

​
Billing behaviour

Depending on your settings:
  • Charge to account — for members with a subscription plan, purchases are added to their monthly invoice (unless “always invoice” is enabled).
  • Immediate payment — the customer pays on the spot by card or manual method.
  • Disable add-to-bill — force all purchases to be paid immediately, even for members.
  • Tax display — show tax breakdown on receipts when enabled.

​
Discounts

Kiosk-mode purchases can carry configurable discounts (enabled/disabled per location).

​
How to set up

1

Activate and configure in the Admin Panel

Using a full unrestricted admin, activate NexKiosk for each location. Choose the payment provider, enable/disable Quick Sale, set the default customer for guest transactions, and configure which products are visible.
2

Set up the tablet

On a landscape tablet that meets the device requirements, install and sign in to the app. Connect a card reader if you’re using a card-payment provider.

​
Settings

  • Enable NexKiosk — master toggle per location.
  • Payment provider — Stripe, Square, Zettle, or manual.

  • Disable add-to-bill — force immediate payment for all purchases.
  • POS payments — enable card payments in POS mode and choose who can pay (everyone, members only, or contacts only).
