Points of sale can be grouped together in Sales zones. Each point of sale or delivery point within the sales zone has the same settings. Ultimately, each point or destination has a separate URL: oido.me/name-of-store/code
The customer scans the QR code or the URL via NFC that is attached to a predetermined location, e.g. a hotel room, sun bed at the pool, table in the restaurant, seat on the train, bed in the hospital, pick-up counter, anchorage in the harbor....
In the order overview, the delivery destination is at the top of each order and informs you or your staff where you should deliver, serve or prepare goods for collection (in the example hereunder the "Pool" is the Sales zone and "Sunbed 1" the point of sale in this zone).
The Points of sale do not only have to be a specific place or service, but can also be a person or a company. For example you can create a separate URL for each regular customer. This allows your customer to order and, if desired, pay immediately without being asked for data, registration or a password.
Example: You are catering business jets and assign a URL to each customer aircraft. The respective crew only has to scan the personal code or call up a bookmark and can order. You already have the billing data. The crew only needs to specify the airport and parking position to receive their products.
Access to your OIDO Shop can be via NFC, QR code, link or embedding your URL in your website.
Each Sales zone represents a (group of) pick-up or delivery points with the same properties. An initial sales zone is predefined by OIDO and can be changed at any time.
Add sales zones using the red button at the top right.
Edit the sales zone using the red EDIT button at the top right of each Sales zone. Don´t forget to Save your settings.
The Edit sales zones settings is divided into five areas.

Here you can activate the order and payment process for this sales zone.
Without an OIDO subscription, you can only test the combined order + payment process with payment simulation for this sales zone.
This checkbox activates payment processing by OIDO.
With OIDO subscription: Payment processing includes the recording of the order, receipt creation, security check of the payment, receipt of payment and a detailed accounting entry for the entire transaction with payment reference.
Once payment has been done, the order is automatically forwarded to production, e.g. to the order-overview screen.
This checkbox allows your customer to choose payment on site. You can use OIDO purely as an ordering system. The order is transferred directly to the order overview screen.
This function requires an OIDO subscription.
The bookings can also be automatically transferred to your POS via the REST API.
If both payment options—on-site payment and payment via OIDO—are enabled, customers will see a selection menu allowing them to choose their preferred method before confirming their order.
The process is registered and can be viewed in the order list, but does not replace the booking obligation for cash or other payment acceptances.
There are three available options to select from here (options can also be enabled simultaneously)
Activate table service: when they bring the products to this destination. For example, to a poolside lounger in a hotel or a seat on the train.
Enable delivery: shows your customer a form requesting the delivery details before completing the order.
Enable Pick up: The customer can pick up the order themselves. For example, at the counter of the store for takeaway.
If you have activated both pickup and delivery, your customer will see a selection menu.
By activating it, the order status is displayed on the receipt page
Activate when you want to allow comments such as without onions for the individual dishes when ordering via this Sales zone.
When activated, this feature allows the customer to adjust the serving order of dishes, such as selecting a salad to be served either as a starter or as a main course. (only valid with table service).
A note field with a freely definable description is inserted here in the process before the order is finally sent. This is useful for requesting the customer's name or pick-up time when paying on site.
Use this field to input a custom text with any explanations or notes you wish to provide.
Select whether to display the Discount Code field in this sales zone during payment by activating the checkbox.
By activating this function, your customer must enter a telephone number before completing the order or order and payment process. The phone number is not checked for authenticity.
The activation applies to the specific Sales zone and the associated Sales points. It makes the telephone number mandatory.
The standard data protection settings of OIDO exclude the use of the telephone number beyond this business transaction. If you wish to use the phone number beyond this, you must explain this in your own data protection conditions.
This selection menu allows you to assign different categories of the product catalog to different sales zones. For example, to display a reduced menu for the pool loungers. Options:
Show the entire product catalog
Show only the selected categories
Show all categories except the selected ones.
Confirm all entries and changes with the “Save” button at the top right.
