The quiet, glanceable KDS for cafés & coffee shops
Keep your café peaceful. Ditch the constant screaming of receipt printers and keep your baristas focused. Small KDS displays your Square drinks and kitchen orders on quiet, clear screens.
Prices exclude applicable sales tax.
Prices shown as a guide. You're billed in your Square location's currency.
Bar & kitchen, one queue
Put one screen on the espresso bar and one in the kitchen. Both show the same live ticket list, so each side can see the whole order and time it together.
Small footprint
Fits perfectly on tight counters next to your grinder. Runs on cheap, compact Android tablets or iPads.
Track ticket age
Watch ticket times at a glance. Visual aging timers make sure no customer is left waiting too long for their latte.
The trouble with paper tickets in a busy café
Steam curls the paper. Handwriting turns to guesswork by the third rush of the morning. A dropped or smudged ticket means a redone drink, an apologetic barista, and a customer checking the clock.
Add a second station or a weekend pop-up window, and most square kds systems and other kitchen displays charge you again, per screen, per month. Costs creep while your counter stays exactly as small as it always was.
How Small KDS actually helps
Unlimited screens, one price
Add a screen for the espresso bar, one for the pass, one for a weekend pop-up window. It's all covered under the same flat plan, with no per-screen surcharge.
One flat price, no surprises
$10/mo per location after the $1 first month. No tiers, no per-seat math, and no annual contract you have to fight your way out of.
Works on the tablet you already have
No proprietary hardware to buy. Small KDS runs on the cheap Android tablet or spare iPad already sitting behind your counter.
No paper, no printer noise
Skip the receipt printer entirely. Tickets appear instantly on your bump screen, stay legible, and never run out of thermal paper mid-rush.
Set up before your next shift starts
Connect your Square account, open Small KDS on the tablet you already own, and you're taking orders on screen in minutes. No technician visit, no IT ticket, no downtime.
