Digital menu boards for Chinese takeaways

A Chinese menu is the longest in the trade and no screen will hold all of it. So the board shows what people actually stand and read: starters, the chicken and the beef, rice and noodles, and the set meals that are most of the takings. The rest stays on the paper menu they take home.

Fourteen days free, no card. After that £14 a month for one screen, £22 for two, £32 for three or four, and £45 for five or more. No VAT charged.

Why shops move

You make the changes, not us

Most signage companies hand you a screen and keep the software. A new price, a line you have sold out of, a special for the weekend: you email it over and wait, and it goes up when it suits them.

Counterboard hands you the keys. Changing the set meals for two and for four takes about ten seconds behind the counter and every screen in the shop has it before the next customer. We still draw your first board and put your prices on it, at no extra cost. We just do not keep hold of it afterwards.

What you get on day one

The artwork is already drawn

You do not start at a blank screen. The board above is yours the moment you sign up, with an empty box waiting under every printed heading: Starters, Chicken, Beef & Pork, Rice & Noodles and Set Meals. Put your prices in the boxes and it is finished.

A board can turn between pages on a timer, so a second screenful of the menu follows the first without anybody touching it.

Getting your prices on it

Photograph the menu you already have

Take a picture of your printed board, your leaflet or your delivery listing. The prices are read off it in seconds and come back as a list you can check. No typing out a hundred lines, which is the reason most shops never get round to this.

You do not have to do even that yourself the first time. Send us the photograph and we put your prices on the board for you, at no extra cost, before you have paid us anything.

What you need

Probably the TV you already have

A smart TV runs it on its own. An older one needs a streaming stick in the HDMI socket, about £30 from any shop, or we send you one set up. Each screen keeps the menu on itself, so the board stays up when the line goes down. The price goes by how many screens you put up, from £14 a month for one.
