# Display data on the terminal

Make a display request to show data on the terminal display outside of the payment flow.

[View source](/point-of-sale/shopper-engagement/display-data.md)

A display request lets you show information on the display of the payment terminal outside of a payment flow. You can:

* Show a **QR code** that the shopper can scan with their mobile device. For example, a QR code with the URL to join your loyalty program or to download an app.
* Let the shopper preview a **virtual receipt** of the items they are purchasing. You can also show a QR code next to the receipt lines.
* Engage shoppers by showing an **image**, such as an advertisement or an offer generated by the POS app.
* Force the terminal to show the regular **standby or 'idle' screen**.
