How the kiosk works for customers

Your storefronts also run on a touchscreen kiosk in the shop, including the Photogize kiosks many stores already have. Graphx sets the kiosk up; the setup is done once per machine. This article is what your customers see.

The home screen

The kiosk opens on your Picsha page with a big tile per product you carry. The customer taps a product and lands in that storefront in kiosk mode: full screen, with the card reader and on-screen keyboard ready.

Bringing photos in

Photos come in two ways:

• From a memory card or USB stick in the kiosk's reader, through a thumbnail picker in the page. There are no Windows dialogs.
• From their phone. The kiosk shows a QR code for sendthepix.com. The customer uploads from their phone, gets a six-character code, and types it at the kiosk.

See Getting photos in: memory card, USB, or from a phone.

Typing

Names, emails, phone numbers, and codes are typed on an on-screen keyboard in the page, so a kiosk needs no physical keyboard.

Paying

Paying happens on the customer's phone. Instead of a card reader, the order page shows a QR code. The customer scans it and pays there with Apple Pay, Google Pay, or a card, and the kiosk moves on by itself when the payment goes through. See Paying at the kiosk with a phone (QR code).

Between customers

After a few minutes with no one touching it, the kiosk warns, then clears the previous customer's photos and details and returns to the home screen. Browser autofill is off, so nobody is offered the previous customer's email. While a payment QR code is on screen, or while the Picsha AI is building a book, the kiosk holds its reset.
