How Discounts Are Applied on the Kiosk

Once discounts are configured in the POS Dashboard, they will be automatically applied to eligible orders on the kiosk:

• When customers place an order on the kiosk, the system will check if the order meets the criteria for any active store or category discounts.
• If the requirements are met, the discount will be applied to the order.
