PalmNet Self-Service Kiosk vs RestioX

PalmNet Self-Service Kiosk lets restaurant guests browse menus, customize items, place orders, and pay in store without staff assistance. It is presented for fast food stores, tea shops, cafes, and restaurant chains. Menus can switch languages and show images, prices, descriptions, sizes, add-ons, notes, combo recommendations, and offers. Promotional banners may use images or video, while membership features include login, points, coupons, discounts, gifts, and other benefits. Listed payments include online, card, and QR methods, with counter payment available when needed. Palmnet says the kiosk synchronizes in real time with POS, kitchen display, membership, and online ordering systems for unified orders, inventory, and data. The large PALMKit K01 is intended for high-traffic locations; the compact PALMKit MK01 fits counters and pickup areas. Palmnet recommends hardware and setup based on space, traffic, and payment methods. Pricing is available by quote, with fees and billing defined in an order form, plan, or invoice.
