Summary

The Peppered Kiosk functionality is an overview of a selection of upcoming events that can be displayed on any touch screen at your location. Visitors can scroll through the overview and select an event. This will open a detailed view of the event with extra info and a QR-code which you can scan with your mobile. This QR code takes you directly to a new order with the event already selected. All you have to do is select the amount of tickets and pay on your phone. It is that easy!




Configuration

The kiosk is accessible on your own website via the URL extension /nc/kiosk (so the url would be something like mytheater.com/nc/kiosk). It also works in different languages if your website supports that. Just add the language tag en in the url if you want the kiosk to display in English, just like on your website (mytheater.com/en/nc/kiosk)


The kiosk displays a list of events that you can curate yourself by adding extra variables to the url of the kiosk. This works exactly the same as the url structure of the calendar view on your website. You can filter the Kiosk view on genres, tags, start-and end date, type of event (movie, default, etc). Just copy-paste the url extension from your website calendar page when you are happy with the selection.


Examples

  • mytheater.com/nc/kiosk?production_type=movie&max=30
    will display an overview of the next 30 movies.

  • mytheater.com/nc/kiosk?genres%5B%5D=2&genres%5B%5D=1
    will display an overview of events with genre ID 1 and genre ID 2

  • mytheater.com/nc/kiosk?start=2022-09-04&end=2022-10-06 
    will display an overview of all events between 4 september and 6 october.


All settings can be combined by adding them together with an "&" in between. 


Design and use


Just like the narrowcasting (mytheater.com/nc/) this feature is already accessible on your live website to check out and play with.


If you want to actually use the Kiosk, a design needs to be implemented, and the proper licence needs to be activated. Please contact us when you are keen to use this feature!


The Kiosk feature requires a touchscreen with internet access and a web browser. Peppered does not provide this hardware.
