Getting Started with MyFoodFast Kiosk
The MyFoodFast Kiosk is a self-service ordering system that runs on Sunmi terminals, allowing customers to place orders directly without staff assistance. This guide covers the initial setup process.
What You Need
- A Sunmi terminal (K2, D3 Pro, or Flex 3)
- Internet connection (WiFi or Ethernet)
- Your MyFoodFast account credentials
- Access to your restaurant's menu configuration in Back Office
Supported Terminal Models
Sunmi K2 (24" portrait)
The K2 is the full-size kiosk terminal. A 24" wall-mounted display in portrait orientation, designed for self-service ordering with everything customers need built in.
Specifications:
- 24" 1080×1920 portrait touchscreen
- Integrated receipt printer
- Built-in NFC reader for Tap-to-Pay (card payments via Stripe)
- Wall-mount design for a permanent installation
Sunmi D3 Pro (15.6" landscape)
The D3 Pro is the new landscape-native kiosk option — roughly half the cost of the K2 with the same core capabilities. Suited to counters or wall mounts where a wide format fits better than a tall one.
Specifications:
- 15.6" 1920×1080 landscape touchscreen
- Integrated receipt printer
- Built-in NFC reader for Tap-to-Pay
- Smaller footprint and lower price point than the K2
Note: The kiosk app automatically picks the right orientation for each device — the K2 always runs portrait, the D3 Pro always runs landscape. No configuration needed.
Sunmi Flex 3
The Flex 3 is a flexible terminal designed for high-traffic environments.
Important: The Flex 3 does not have an integrated printer or NFC reader. If you need to print receipts, connect an external printer separately. If you need card payments, choose the K2 or D3 Pro instead. See Kiosk Printing Guide for details.
