What this page is for
Register this browser makes the browser you are using right now a till or a waiter's handheld,
opened at /till, without a separate device to enrol or an app to install. A till sells at the
counter from this computer; a waiter takes orders at the tables from this phone's browser. Only this browser is registered, and it counts
as one device on your plan. Signing out of the back office later leaves it registered.
A browser can only be registered at a store that already has an active till — see Stores. Only people whose role can manage users see this page.

Which store this browser sells at. Only stores with at least one active till can be chosen.
Example: Mombasa Road — Main
