Terminal & Kiosk Apps (iPad/iPhone)

Use the OpenPOS Terminal app to receive and print orders, ring up sales, take phone orders and run open tabs, and the OpenPOS Kiosk app for customer self-ordering.

Last updated October 12, 2026

OpenPOS has two native iOS apps for the store. OpenPOS Terminal is the staff-facing register on an iPad or iPhone: it receives and prints your orders, rings up walk-in sales and phone orders, runs open tabs and takes card payments. OpenPOS Kiosk turns an iPad into a self-order station for customers. Both connect to your store with a device code from the dashboard.

Where to find it

OpenPOS Terminal on the App Store and OpenPOS Kiosk on the App Store.
Sidebar › SETUP › Devices: device codes and the devices connected with each one.

In SETUP › Devices, tap New Device, name it and pick POS Terminal, Kiosk or Time Clock (see Time Clock & Timesheets). Tap Create.
Install the app on the iPad, open it and enter the code. Your menu and store settings load on their own.
For card payments, pair a Stripe Terminal M2 reader. See Printers & card readers.

Good to know

Online, kiosk, Voice AI and phone orders land in the Terminal's order list and print on your receipt printer. Calls answered by Voice AI show in Call History.
Charge takes a card on the M2 reader or records cash; Save Ticket keeps an order open as a tab, including phone orders.
At checkout, look a customer up by phone number to apply rewards, store credit or a promo code. Nothing applies by itself. See Customers & loyalty.
For the Kiosk, put the iPad in a stand and turn on Guided Access (iPad Settings › Accessibility) so customers can't leave the app.
Tap to Pay on iPhone and iPad is coming soon. Today, in-person cards use the M2 reader.

If something's not working

Lost a device? Revoke its code in SETUP › Devices; Connected Devices shows what signed in with it.
The browser screens (the staff app, the Kitchen Display) don't need a device code; staff sign in with their PIN.
