People waiting for the bus, train or bike know at a glance
A bright screen in your service centre, waiting hall or bike station shows the number being called, weather and official warnings, what's on in the region, and your offers from season tickets to rental bikes.
Places where everyone waits for a moment
At the service centre, someone takes a ticket to sign up for a new season pass. In the waiting hall at the bus station there are commuters, students and visitors with suitcases. At the bike station someone collects an e-bike, and at the park-and-ride on the edge of town a driver swaps the car for the bus. The picture is the same everywhere: a few minutes to spare, a glance upwards, and the question of what's going on today.
Your departure board tells people when they'll be on their way. For everything else there is usually a printed notice. Yet you have plenty to say: which counters are open today, that the bike station stays open longer than the service centre, that there's a new pass or a safe-cycling course. On top of that comes everything travellers care about before they head out, from an afternoon thunderstorm to the town festival at the weekend.
schaupunkt adds exactly that part to your passenger information. The screen fetches weather, official warnings, events and regional news on its own, and in the service centre it shows the number being called with an estimated wait. Your fares and offers run in the same rotation, easy to read from a distance. You steer everything from the app, across several locations at once if you like.
What it looks like at your place
In the service centre
A customer has taken a ticket and sees on the screen that a few people are ahead of her. Meanwhile she reads the season-pass offer and scans the QR code for details.
In the bus station waiting hall
Between two buses, commuters check the weather and the afternoon storm warning. A teenager plays a round on the big screen with his phone until his bus arrives.
The bike station in the evening
At dusk, commuters return their bikes. The bright screen in the glass front shows the hours of the station and the car-sharing point, plus the weekend rental-bike offer.

Weather and official warnings

What's on in the region
Events over the next few days with a QR code for more. For visitors arriving by bus and train it's their first orientation in town.
Play until departure
A QR code invites people to five games played with their own phone, no app needed. A round lasts about as long as the wait for the next bus.
A day at the mobility hub

Ads from next door, income for you
People waiting at a station or stop are customers for the businesses around it: the bakery on the forecourt, the bike shop, the café, the hotel nearby, the driving school. They book airtime on your screens, rotating with weather, events and your offers. You decide whether and which ads run, approve every ad yourself and choose which locations show advertising.
You share in the revenue. Your share depends on the location, the screen and who provides the device. We lay out the terms openly and discuss them with you in person before the first advertiser goes live. More under Earn with your window. Businesses that want to advertise at your locations go to Book advertising.
Every display logged, every location in numbers
Every display is logged with time and screen. You can see when your notice about the new fare ran at which location, and advertisers see the same for their ads. Since 12 September 2026 more than 80,000 displays have been recorded this way.
For an extra €15 a month, a small sensor inside on the screen counts how many people, bicycles, cars and buses pass by, each with direction and time. It recognises nobody and stores no images, and only hourly figures reach the platform. You see the peak hours at every station, and advertisers get media data for each screen. Details on the Sensors page.
Frequently asked questions

Yes. The pages are built for large type and high contrast and work without sound, even in a noisy hall.
Yes. Each screen knows its location, so weather and warnings apply to exactly that area. You send your own notices from the app to one or all locations.
Warnings come from the German Weather Service for the district, the weather from openly available weather services. Every page names its source and the time of its data.
Yes, as long as it neither dazzles nor distracts road users. Road traffic law and often a local by-law set the rules. We check the location with you and set up the screen to match.
Yes. Prices on a screen follow the German price indication rules like any other price tag. Your offers show the price exactly as you state it at the counter.
Power and internet are all it needs, and Wi-Fi is enough. You enter the Wi-Fi on first start through a setup page on your phone.
The screen programme for an existing screen costs from €12 a month, or from €47 a month complete with device. Footfall counting adds €15 a month. All prices net.
The player restarts on its own, and updates arrive over the network. As a rule nobody needs to travel to the station.
