Layar

Cafe Digital Signage Malaysia

Your kopitiam menu board, updated from your phone.

Stop reprinting menus and walking a pendrive to the TV. Your menu, promo and hours live on one dashboard. Change once, the screen updates itself.

Free for one screen, paid plans from RM19 a month

No credit card, no contract. Software only, so there is no installation fee.

Digital menu board Malaysia, from KL to JB

Layar runs from the cloud, so it works the same in Kuala Lumpur, Selangor, Penang, Johor Bahru and the rest of Malaysia.

Lunch promo starts at 12, not when you remember

Breakfast menu until 11:30, set lunch after that, teatime promo at 3. It switches by itself.

Prices changed again

Edit the poster once from your phone or laptop. Every screen in the shop shows the new price within a minute.

The TV is showing nothing again

Layar keeps playing even when Wi-Fi drops, and restarts a black or frozen screen for you. Email tells you if a screen goes offline, WhatsApp from RM19.

Your best seller is invisible from the door

Rotate two to four slides instead of one static menu. Your signature drink, the hidden add-on and today's promo each get a turn while customers queue.

Only you know how to change it

Anyone with the login changes a price from their own phone. No laptop, no design software.

A kopitiam day, scheduled once

Build these four playlists once. The board runs itself after that, including the days you are not in the shop.

TimeWhat the screen showsWhy
7:00am to 11:30amBreakfast set, kopi and roti prices, two photosThe morning crowd orders fast and repeats. Show the sets, not the whole menu.
11:30am to 3:00pmSet lunch with the price beside each photoYour highest-margin block. It starts at 11:30 whether or not anyone remembers.
3:00pm to 6:00pmTeatime promo, one item, one priceQuiet hours. One offer beats a full menu nobody is reading.
6:00pm to closeDinner or takeaway menu, plus tomorrow's specialThe evening customer wants a different thing from the 8am customer.

A weekend-only bundle works the same way, set once by day. Ramadan hours or a holiday set go in with a start and end date, then your normal week returns. A day like this needs the RM29 plan. RM19 schedules the screen on and off, not the playlists, and the free plan does not schedule.

First-month mistakes, and what they cost

Comparing menu board prices?

Two routes, side by side: a one-time hardware package from a supplier, or software on the TV you already own.

Questions

Do I need a special TV for my cafe?

No. Any TV with an HDMI port works, because Layar runs on a small player plugged into it. Facing a bright window? Choose a panel with 300+ nits.

Do I have to buy a player box?

Yes, one small box per TV, unless a Windows PC is already behind the screen. An Android TV box costs about RM150 to RM400 once. Smart TV apps cannot run Layar. The box also brings the menu back after a power cut and switches the screen on and off on schedule.

Can I use my Canva menu designs?

Yes. Import designs from Canva directly into Layar, arrange them into a playlist, and publish to your TV.

What happens when the shop Wi-Fi drops?

The menu keeps playing. It plays from the player's own storage, so an outage only stops new changes until the line is back.

How long does it take to set up?

An afternoon, mostly mounting the TV. Plug in the player, install the app, enter the pairing code and upload your menu.

Who updates the menu when I am not in the shop?

Anyone with the login, from their phone. Free and RM19 have one login, so that means sharing it; separate staff logins start on RM29. Pick one owner on day one, and watch them change a price once.

How much does it cost for one cafe?

The first screen is free forever. One paid screen is RM19 a month. More than one is RM29 each, including the first, so two screens is RM58.
