Overview
Last year, we set out to improve the way you experience Kounta and reimagined our brand purpose to better align ourselves with our customers.
We launched many new things, including a brand update that's smarter, more intuitive and designed to help you better serve your customers. You can read all about it here.
Below is a list of the key improvements you'll see in the updated Kounta brand.

Back Office Updates
1. New Colours and Fonts
The Kounta brand you’re familiar with drew attention away from the stylish interiors you’ve worked hard to create. Now the colours & fonts of our updated brand take inspiration from hospitality businesses like yours to help Kounta blend into different environments. The choice of colours, fonts, and contrast also makes Kounta more readable in lower light settings and for those with less than stellar eyesight.

2. POS, Profile and Help Icons
In the old Back Office, the Profile and Help icons were located in the top right of the screen. In the updated Back Office style, these icons are situated in the bottom of the left-hand sidebar. We’ve retained only the POS icon in the top right of the screen, allowing quick access to Point of Sale when you need to serve your customer. You'll also find the Help and Profile options in the same place on Point of Sale, bringing consistency and simplicity to your Kounta experience.
