Kiosk support - Disable products when out of hours

ForgeDam — Sat, 20 Sep 2025 13:51:21 GMT

Hello,

Does anyone know if it possible to disable items from the kiosk which are only available at certain points of the day.
We only serve food between 9:30 and 4 so want to disable food orders out of these hours but continue to use the kiosk for everything else.

Thank you

Hi @ForgeDam !

My advice would be to create time based categories so these items only come up at the times you want them to.

To set up time based categories from your Square Dashboard:

Sign in to your Square Dashboard and click Items & orders > Items > Item Library.
Tap Categories to select an existing category or create a new one.
Under Availability, select the Only during certain days and times option and use the checkboxes to choose which days of the week these items are available. For each selected day, you can also enter multiple timeframes by selecting (+) and entering in the hours.
Click Save.

I hope this helps. If this doesn't fully answer your question, please let me know by tagging me.
