Kiosk mode

Enable kiosk mode from your Customer Area.

View source

Kiosk mode is intended for payment terminals in unattended environments, such as next to a vending machine, token dispenser, or parking payment systems. Kiosk mode hides the navigation bar and the settings and transaction buttons at the bottom of the screen. In this way, you can prevent customers from using the terminal screen to change or minimize the default app, or to power off the terminal.
