Quick Service Restaurant Digital Signage by Nento

Quick, concise, and catchy menus are the lifeblood of any fast-food restaurant. Printed menus often slow down service, cause errors, and require costly reprints. Quick service restaurant digital signage also allows you to streamline operations and upsell more effectively, and eliminates print waste. 

Nento assists QSRs to make every interaction with their customers exciting with dynamic screens, cloud-based updates, and intelligent capabilities that are intended to maximize sales. We make digital transformation easy and profitable, whether it is indoor or outdoor drive-thru boards. 

Static menus cost money — digital menus make money.

So, what is QSR exactly? Quick Service Restaurant (QSR) is a fast-food or cafe type establishment where customer loyalty is based on speed, consistency and effective communication. Customers want to be able to order fast, have the right displays, and get the right promotions in time, particularly in busy settings. 

In the case of QSRs, digital signage is not merely a displaying tool. It’s a growth engine. With digital menus, real-time pricing, dynamic promotions and switching between breakfast, lunch and dinner are possible. This agility keeps customers engaged and ensures a steady flow of orders. 

Fast, consistent, and clear — that’s what keeps QSR customers coming back.

Not all signage solutions are created equal. Nento’s QSR digital signage platform is aimed at high traffic, fast-moving restaurants. 

With Nento, you get: 

  • Speed of service: Menus are clear, bright, and easy to read, thus making customers make their decision quicker.
  • Higher average order value (AOV): Smart upselling areas will encourage customers to order combos or extras.
  • Zero print waste: Menu changes are all in the cloud, so expensive menu reprints are not needed.
  • Consistency: Promotions can be rolled out in a few seconds across a variety of locations.

QSRs using Nento see faster service and higher ticket sizes.
