  • The CFD add-on active on your store
  • Fuze Store Hub running on a shop computer, with your POS tablet paired to it — the display updates travel over your local Wi-Fi through the Hub

Does CFD need Fuze Store Hub?

Yes. The customer display updates over your local Wi-Fi through Fuze Store Hub — the POS tablet sends each cart and payment update to the Hub, which relays it to the customer screen. If the Hub isn't running and paired (or Use this Hub is turned off on the POS), the display won't update.

  • Instant updates — cart changes appear on the display with no internet round-trip
  • Works during internet outages — as long as both devices are on the same Wi-Fi
  • Lower cloud usage — display updates never leave your shop
