Enabling customer-facing display options

GreenBill allows your customers to scan, save, or email a digital receipt, so you don’t have to print a physical copy. Depending on your business needs, you can either enable a dedicated electronic display or print a static QR code that can be scanned by your customers.

Any tablet or smartphone with internet access can be used as an electronic customer display. The electronic customer display works by accessing an encrypted website that is unique to your business, so you don’t need to install an app.

Customer Display

This display option allows you to set up a permanent, customer-facing screen that automatically updates with the last generated receipt.

1. Open GreenBill backend.
2. Click Outputs.
3. Select customer display.
   
4. Click the QR code icon to retrieve a scannable QR code and the access code for the encrypted website.
5. Open the link by scanning the QR code with your electronic display device.
6. Enter the access code provided in step 4 in the provided field.
7. Once the encrypted website is launched, you can physically set up your device as a permanent customer-facing display.

Service List

This display option allows you to select and present a receipt to a customer using an electronic display.

1. Open GreenBill backend.
2. Click Outputs.
3. Select service list.
   
4. Click the QR code icon to retrieve a scannable QR code and the access code for the encrypted website.
5. Open the link by scanning the QR code with your display device.
6. Enter the access code provided in step 4 in the provided field.
7. Once the encrypted website is launched, use the data to open the desired receipt and display it to your guest.

Static QR

This display option allows you to download and print a QR code that your customers can scan with their mobile devices to access the last generated receipt. Unlike the other display options, you don’t need an electronic display for a static QR code.

1. Open the GreenBill backend.
2. Click Outputs.
3. Select Static QR code.
   
4. Click the QR code icon.
5. Right-click the QR code to download it as an image.
6. Print the QR code image and display it in the customer area for customers to scan with their mobile devices.
