Digital signage

Digital signage that stays in sync with your POS menu

Turn lobby TVs, counter screens, and window displays into live menu boards. Peppar Smart Signage binds slides to your catalog — when a price, combo, coupon, or sold-out flag changes in the POS, the TV updates without a redesign.

What is it?

Restaurant digital signage (or digital menu boards) is software that plays designed slides on TVs. Peppar signage is data-driven: each slide is a design document with bindings to menu items, categories, coupons, and promotions. HTML is a render of that document, not a static Photoshop export that goes stale.

Challenges restaurants face

  • Static Canva or PowerPoint boards show yesterday’s prices after a menu update
  • Standalone signage SaaS is disconnected from POS, stock, and offers
  • Staff reprint posters when a dish sells out or a combo ends
  • Proprietary TV hardware lock-in and extra monthly signage fees

How Peppar solves it

Peppar Smart Signage lives inside your restaurant POS. Design in Signage Studio, bind dishes and offers from the live catalog, publish to playlists, pair any browser or Android TV with a code, and let CometD push content when bound items change. Included on Pro — no separate signage vendor.

Key features

  • Signage Studio with landscape (16:9) and portrait (9:16) templates — specials, split boards, hero, offers
  • Live bindings to menu items, sizes/prices, veg tags, photos, coupons, promotions, and combos
  • AI generate and revise slides from a prompt, still stored as validated design JSON (not raw HTML)
  • Playlists with duration, entry/exit, and sold-out policy: hide, mark sold out, or substitute
  • Schedules by time window, days of week, and date range (lunch board vs dinner board)
  • Pair any TV or Android box with a one-time pairing code — no proprietary player hardware
  • Realtime content packs over CometD plus a 45-second poll fallback
  • Staff hub for screens, pairing, publish, and playlist assignment

Benefits

  • Guests always see the same prices as QR menus and billing
  • Sold-out items leave the board automatically instead of embarrassing guests
  • Campaigns and combos appear on TVs the moment they go live in Peppar
  • Reuse existing TVs — no lock-in to a signage hardware brand
  • One subscription: POS, QR, KDS, and menu boards together

How it works

  1. Open Digital Signage in the staff console and tap Open Studio
  2. Start from a TV template or describe a look — bind live dishes, coupons, and promotions
  3. Publish the slide, add it to a playlist, and optionally schedule lunch vs dinner
  4. Generate a pairing code and enter it on the TV player (browser kiosk or Android box)
  5. Assign the playlist — the screen plays published content and refreshes when the menu changes

Frequently asked questions

What is Peppar digital signage?

Peppar Smart Signage is POS-connected restaurant digital menu boards. Slides bind to live menu items, combos, coupons, and promotions so TV prices and availability stay in sync with billing and QR ordering.

Do I need special TV hardware?

No. Pair any HDMI TV with a cheap Android box or Fire TV, or open the player in a browser kiosk. There is no Peppar-branded player SKU required.

Do menu prices update on the TV automatically?

Yes, for bound items. When staff change a price, toggle stock, or edit a coupon or promotion that a slide uses, Peppar rebuilds that screen’s content pack and pushes an update.

Can I use AI to design slides?

Yes. Signage Studio can generate or revise a layout from a prompt. Output is structured design JSON validated by Peppar — TVs never execute arbitrary scripts.

Which Peppar plan includes digital signage?

Smart Signage is a Pro feature (also Professional / Enterprise). It is not included on Starter and is off during the default trial unless enabled for your account.

Is this the same as kitchen display (KDS)?

No. KDS is for chefs to bump tickets. Digital signage is guest-facing menu boards, offers, and brand content on lobby and counter TVs.
