Split-flap displays for coffee shops

Your menu is your brand.
Make it flip.

Today’s roast, seasonal specials, the Wi-Fi password — all flipping above your counter on the screen you already have. The click makes people look up from their laptops.

A real mechanical split‑flap board starts at $15,000. Split‑Flap TV works on the screen you already own — less than $25/month.

The problem

The handwritten menu works until it doesn’t.

Coffee shop owners know the routine: write the daily specials on the chalkboard before opening, erase and rewrite when something changes, squint at the faded writing by 4pm. It’s time-consuming, it looks amateur by mid-morning, and there’s never enough space for everything you want to say. A printed menu costs money every time the seasonal drinks change. Split‑Flap TV lets you run your entire specials board from your phone — update it when the oat milk runs out, switch to the afternoon menu at 2pm automatically, and never touch a chalk again.

Display the Wi-Fi password prominently so you stop repeating it 40 times a day

The click-clack creates a talking point that gets photographed and shared

No maintenance, no chalk dust, no reprinting — ever

What to display

What coffee shop owners display.

Today’s roast & origin

Single origin, tasting notes, roaster name — displayed in split‑flap style above the counter. Turns a routine order into a conversation.

Seasonal specials

Pumpkin spice latte, summer cold brew, winter spiced mocha — update the board the moment a seasonal drink launches or sells out.

Wi-Fi password

The most-asked question in any coffee shop. Display it permanently on one board row. Staff stop repeating it; customers stop asking.

Morning to afternoon switch

Breakfast pastries from 7am, lunch sandwiches from 11am, afternoon cakes from 2pm. Automatic every day — set once, runs forever.

Opening hours & info

Visible from the street on a window-facing screen. Happy hours, kitchen closing times, and last orders displayed without any manual effort.

Loyalty & social

Stamp card reminder, Instagram handle, loyalty app QR — rotated in the message loop so every customer sees it at least once per visit.

“The board above our counter gets photographed at least five times a day. People tag us when they post it. It’s our best marketing and it costs $25 a month.”
