Self-serve checkout on the tablet you already own
Turn any iPad or Android tablet into a self-checkout kiosk. Customers scan, pay, and walk — staff supervise. Built into Oliver POS, no extra software.
Self-checkout, the WooCommerce way
Designed for shops that want self-service without buying enterprise kiosk hardware.
Tablet-first kiosk UI
Big touch targets, big buttons, locked navigation. The kiosk mode hides admin features so customers can only complete the checkout flow.
Card and contactless only
Self-checkout accepts cards and digital wallets through your integrated payment processor. No cash drawer, no cash-handling risk.
Built-in supervisor PIN
Cashiers can step in for age-restricted items, refunds, manual price entry, or aborted sales with a PIN — without unlocking the whole register.
Idle reset and session timeout
If a customer walks away mid-sale, the kiosk auto-returns to the welcome screen after a configurable timeout. No abandoned carts on the screen.
Receipts: email, print, or skip
Customers choose how they want their receipt. SMS, email, paper, or nothing — and the option is presented in plain language.
Two-way WooCommerce sync
Self-checkout transactions are normal WooCommerce orders. Stock decrements, customer profiles update, reports include them automatically.
When self-checkout pays for itself
For most shops the maths is simple: every minute a staff member spends processing a basket of bottled water and a sandwich is a minute they could spend on the floor, on the phone, or rebuilding the display. Self-checkout takes the simple sales — the "I know what I want, I just need to pay" sales — off the staffed line.
Cafés use it at peak hours to absorb queue length without adding cashiers. Apparel shops use it for tap-and-go on accessory purchases. Convenience stores use it for grab-and-go items. Bookshops use it after closing for events.
Because the kiosk runs Oliver POS underneath, every sale is a normal WooCommerce order. Stock, reports, customer profiles, and tax all behave exactly as they do at the staffed register.
