Terminal Max is a countertop till with the card terminal built in. It runs NeroPOS, shows the customer their order on an 8-inch customer-facing display, and takes card payments on the same device.

### Try it yourself

Take an order on Terminal Max: tap dishes to add them to the basket, then press **PAY** and drag a card onto the terminal, or press **Add to table**. Switch to Tables or Orders at the top to look around. Nothing here is a real payment.

### Tables

Terminal Max shows your floor plan, so you can see at a glance which tables are free and which are in use. Go to **Manage → Tables**.

### In the box

Terminal Max comes with a stand for the counter and a USB hub for extra connections.

An order taken at a table on a Flex, or on a phone with the NeroPay app, can land on the Max and go to your printers. To compare the three, see [Choosing a NeroPay terminal](https://docs.neropay.app/terminal/choosing-a-neropay-terminal).
