Table Sticker scan prompt checklist
How to publish the prompt
Choose the scan moment
Use this prompt when the fixed table or booth surface scan moment is: guest notices the QR code while waiting.
Write the destination first
The prompt should explain that the QR opens the current drinks, pastry, and light lunch menu, not a generic website or ordering flow.
Add support copy carefully
Add fallback, language, and accessibility notes only when they are true for the live menu destination.
Publish and measure
After printing the table sticker, review watch scan dropoff from damaged or low-contrast stickers and staff feedback.
Prompt copy is not the same as QR setup
Use scan prompt examples for the words around the code. Use setup guides for size, placement, contrast, materials, and scan testing.
How FlipMenu fits
FlipMenu helps restaurants import an existing menu, publish a mobile-friendly QR menu, generate QR codes, update menu content without reprinting, translate guest-facing menu content, and review scan and menu engagement. It is not a POS, ordering, payment, delivery, or certified compliance platform.
For cafes and bakeries, the useful workflow is to publish the live menu first, confirm the QR destination, write a truthful prompt, then print or distribute the table sticker. The counter manager should watch watch scan dropoff from damaged or low-contrast stickers and adjust prompt wording when guests scan but do not continue into the menu.
