How to Setup Tablet Ordering System

Steps-by-step


What is the Vendtill Tablet Ordering App? 

The Vendtill POS Tablet Ordering App is a user-friendly digital solution designed to streamline the order-taking process using a tablet. Ideal for restaurants, cafés, and other service-based businesses, the app allows employees—such as waiters or stewards—to take customer orders and send them directly to the POS system, Kitchen Order Ticket (KOT) printers, or KOT display screens.

This functionality helps improve service speed, reduce manual errors, and enhance the overall customer experience.
