Screens that pay for themselves
One platform for Boards, Playlists, Schedules, Screens and Players.
NowBoard is cloud digital signage for any venue. Every screen can sell ad slots to local businesses and you keep up to 92% of every ad sold. Start free, add Screens as you grow.
The signage platform built around Now: whatever's on in your venue, always on screen.
Build your menu, timetable, listings, or opening times directly in NowBoard, or connect a live feed. Either way, every screen stays current automatically.
Menu builder, timetable editor, listings manager, opening times, structured editors built into the platform. No design tool, no spreadsheet, no feed required.
Already have a POS, booking system, or data source? Connect it and your Boards update automatically whenever your data changes.
Every other platform is built around media files you upload and redesign. NowBoard is built around what's actually happening in your venue right now.
57 ready-made templates: nothing to design.
Every Board is a ready-to-use screen layout. Pick one from the library, fill in your content, and it is on screen. Templates are built to be readable from across a room: large text, clear structure, high contrast.
- Welcome & reception displays
- Daily menus and weekly specials
- Timetables, schedules and activity programmes
- Announcements and noticeboards
- Meeting room and wayfinding displays
- Countdown timers, image slideshows, and more

The right content at the right time: automatically.
A Playlist is an ordered sequence of Boards. Assign different Playlists to different time windows and NowBoard switches them automatically, no one needs to log in at 8am to change the board.
- Rotate multiple Boards with custom dwell times
- Day-of-week rules: weekday vs weekend schedules
- Morning, lunch, and evening Playlists on the same screen
- Set it once: runs automatically every day
- Change content without touching the schedule
One screen, one Screen. Scale from one site to hundreds.
A Screen is where a screen lives. Each Screen plays one Playlist and follows one Schedule. NowBoard's location hierarchy grows with your organisation: from a single venue to a multi-site, multi-region estate.
- Manage all screens from a single dashboard
- Group screens by Site, Area, and Zone
- Division and Region levels for large organisations
- Open one Screen's link on up to three displays at that spot
- Per-location branding with custom logos and colours
Works on any TV. No proprietary hardware.
