What YOU need to use Gustaio Studio

  • Tablet or Smartphone with installed Gustaio Studio App

    for managing your shop and orders

  • POS Printer (optional)

    Connected to the same WiFi network as your smartphone so the app can control the printers

Initial Shop Setup

For the initial configuration of your shop you need the following:

  1. Logo in vector format (AI or SVG)
  2. Background image without text and logos
  3. Menu / food list and extras
  4. Ingredient list
  5. Delivery locations with price per location (optional)

Getting Started

Login

After activation by the Gustaio team, you can log into the platform.

For optimal use, we recommend using the Terminal App. Log in there with your email and password.

App Download

If you want to use the web version, you can also log in there: terminal.gustaio.ai

Note: The web version is exactly the same as the app. However, printing with POS printers is not 1:1 the same and requires an extended setup. Therefore, it's recommended to use the app if you want to manage orders and have them printed!

Admin Access

For advanced settings and connection to the payment provider Stripe, you must log in at gustaio.io.

ATTENTION: This login should only be performed by the administrator/manager of the shop.
