Customers add products to the bag on the kiosk and tap Continue to check out. What happens next depends on the Checkout method you choose. The bag and checkout only appear when Features → Bag is turned on in the Endless Aisle settings.

- Customers pay on the spot without staff: Grid Checkout
- You already sell online and want orders in your web shop: External
- Customers pay at the till, nothing else to set up: Print Barcode
- Staff fetch the items and bring them to a pickup point: Tasks App
- Staff fetch the items, and customers choose store pickup or home delivery: Print Barcode with Customer Info, and Tasks App
About Tasks
Tasks is a separate PhyGrid solution where store staff receive and handle customer requests. Smart Fitting Room uses it too. Endless Aisle can send its orders there, so staff see each order with its products, prepare it, and hand it over. See the Tasks section.
Settings for every method
These settings under Features → Bag apply whichever method you choose:
- Checkout method: the method, as described above
- Hint text that is placed under the checkout button: a short note in the bag, for example about delivery times
- Display Total Discount Calculation?: shows the subtotal and discounts in the order summary
- Type of notification, which user sees after product was added to the shopping bag: a pop-up message, or a note in the search bar at the bottom of the screen
After checkout, the kiosk empties the bag and returns to the idle screen.
