In their own words
MyKiosk
MyKiosk is MyTec’s touchscreen self-ordering kiosk for food service, available as a complete kiosk or as hardware only. Customers can choose and customize menu items, add loyalty details if they wish, pay using a preferred method, and receive a document bearing an order number. Orders can go to production through a monitor or pager, with customers notified when they are ready for pickup or table delivery. The system supports counter, fast-food, self-service, table-service, takeaway, and delivery operations, and can work independently or connect to MyTec and other restaurant cash-register software. Stores and chains can tailor menus, products, payment methods, ordering content, and delivery types. The complete setup can include a 22–27 inch touchscreen, printer, QR-code reader, and bank POS; automatic cash handling is optional. Its cloud portal and database provide management and reporting. MyKiosk runs on web and Windows, and pricing is on request.
