Counter Stand scan prompt checklist
How to publish the prompt

Use this prompt when the register or pickup counter scan moment is: guest is close to ordering and wants menu details.
Write the destination first
The prompt should explain that the QR opens the current room service or outlet 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 counter stand, review compare counter scans with item view spikes during rush periods 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.
