A compact tabletop digital signage display designed for cashier counters, ordering stations and product-promotion areas. Show menus, prices, new drinks, seasonal campaigns and upselling offers exactly where customers make purchase decisions.
Customers often make final purchase decisions at the cashier counter. A countertop digital menu board helps cafes, beverage shops and restaurants display featured drinks, limited-time offers, add-ons and membership promotions at the exact moment customers are ready to order.
Unlike printed countertop posters, the display can be updated quickly for new products, changing prices, daypart promotions and seasonal campaigns.
Choose a USB standalone display for single-store promotion, an Android CMS display for chain-store content management, a Windows configuration for POS or third-party software integration, or a monitor-only version for existing media players. Final configuration depends on counter space, content type, network and software requirements.

|---|---|---|---|
| USB Standalone Landscape Display | Single stores, milk tea shops, cafes, single-product campaigns | Landscape, 10.1"–21.5", USB loop playback, non-touch | Screen size, content update frequency, counter space |
| Android CMS Chain-Store Display | Milk tea, coffee and fast-food chains | Android, Wi-Fi/LAN, cloud CMS, multi-store groups, daypart switching | Number of stores, permissions, playback reports, network |
| Windows POS-Integrated Display | Projects requiring POS, membership or third-party menu software | Windows industrial PC, HDMI/USB, POS interface, custom software | POS brand, interface documentation, software compatibility |
| Monitor-Only Counter Display | Buyers with an existing player, POS host or AV system | HDMI input, external media player, non-touch | Resolution, cable length, player compatibility |

The compact tabletop form factor is designed for limited counter space. Place the display beside a POS terminal, at the ordering point or near featured products to deliver clear promotional messages without blocking daily service operations.
The featured product uses a landscape display, which is well suited to hero beverage advertising, two-product comparison, combo recommendations, horizontal video, wide-format menus and split-screen content such as menu + promotion + QR code.
| Orientation | Content That Works Best | Typical Placement |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape | Wide beverage images, two-product comparison, combo recommendations, horizontal video | Cashier counters, coffee bars, product display cabinets |
| Portrait | Single-product posters, membership QR codes, new-product features, vertical price lists | Narrow counters, store entrances, queue areas |
| Split-screen layout | Menu + promotion + price + QR code in one view | Chain restaurants, milk tea shops, quick-service stores |
For projects that require customer interaction, a touchscreen option can be configured for menu browsing, product selection, membership registration or customer-service applications. Touch functionality should be selected according to the intended software and user workflow.
Use the display to recommend high-margin add-ons, upgrade options and product bundles. By placing targeted messages beside the payment or ordering area, stores can promote relevant offers while customers are still deciding what to buy.
Best for: Independent cafes, single milk tea shops, bakery counters, pop-up stores, temporary promotion stands and small restaurants.
Placement: Cashier counter, ordering area, drink pickup area, beside display cabinets, waiting area.
Value: highlight new products and toppings before ordering or at checkout to support a higher average order value.

Peripheral integration should be selected according to the final application. A promotional display may only require video playback, while a touchscreen ordering or membership terminal may require additional software, network connectivity and payment-related hardware.

A countertop digital menu board is designed for close-range decision-making at the ordering counter. It combines commercial display hardware, flexible content management and optional POS or membership integration in a compact tabletop format.
Qtenboard was founded in Shenzhen in 2005 and started inside the display supply chain, supplying CKD and SKD panel kits to assemblers and local brands before most commercial display brands existed. That component-level origin means quality is controlled from the module up, and OEM/ODM projects are adapted for local voltage, certification and assembly requirements.
