Advertising screens — set up what to show

Add a webpage to your PAC library, mark a default, and pick what to host as the idle screen.

An advertising screen is a named webpage in your PAC library. Each screen points at a URL — the terminal opens it fullscreen when it's meant to be showing. One screen can be the default, which shows whenever no campaign is scheduled.

Add an advertising screen

  1. 1

    Add a screen

    In the Advertising screens section, add a screen, give it a name, and paste the web address (URL) it should show.

  2. 2

    Set a default (optional)

    Mark one screen as the default. It shows whenever no campaign is scheduled to run.

  3. 3

    Turn the feature on

    Use the master switch so terminals actually show the screen while idle.

Tip

The screen is just a web page you host — you give PAC a URL and the terminal opens it fullscreen. Anything that opens in a browser works.

What to show, and where to host it

A few concrete ideas, easiest first:

  • A promo poster image — upload a JPG/PNG to any image host and paste the image's direct URL (a Canva or Google Drive public image link, for example).
  • A hosted menu page — your online menu, a PDF link, or a simple one-page site.
  • A "tap to pay" or brand page — a single hosted page with your logo.

No website of your own? A free design tool (Canva, for instance) can publish a poster as a public link you can paste straight in. The only requirement is that the URL opens in a normal browser without a login.
