Set Up a Check-In Kiosk
If your business checks customers in when they arrive — a studio, a clinic, a class, a facility — DCS can run an on-site check-in kiosk. Customers check themselves in on a dedicated device, sign any waiver you require, and you manage the kiosks from the portal's Revenue workspace.
This page is a quick orientation. For the full tour of the workspace, see the Revenue Overview.
How it works
- A customer arrives and checks in. At the kiosk, the customer identifies themselves — including by scanning a registered credential — to check in for their appointment or visit.
- They sign any required waiver. If your business requires a liability waiver, the kiosk prompts the customer to sign before check-in completes.
- You manage the devices in the portal. The Kiosk Devices screen in the Revenue workspace is where those devices are set up and managed. It is available to company owners and admins.
Where kiosks fit
The kiosk works alongside the rest of the Revenue workspace:
- Customers — the people who check in are the same customers you manage here.
- Liability Waiver — the waiver customers sign at the kiosk is the one you author in the workspace, written in Markdown.
- Bookings & Schedule — check-ins line up with the appointments on your calendar.
Because the Kiosk Devices screen is limited to owners and admins, day-to-day staff can run the kiosk without access to device configuration.
Is this available on my site?
Kiosk devices are part of the revenue add-on, which appears only on sites where it is enabled. If you do not see a Revenue area in your portal, revenue features are not turned on for that site yet. Contact us through the portal to enable them.
