Connecting Toast links a storekit store to one Toast restaurant. You enter your Toast Restaurant GUID, click Connect, and storekit loads your Toast configuration so you can map dining options, revenue centers, and payment settings.

​
Prerequisites

  • A Toast account with online ordering enabled
  • Your Toast Restaurant GUID (the unique identifier for the restaurant)
  • The Toast integration enabled on your storekit account
If Toast POS does not appear in your Integrations list, the integration isn’t enabled for your account yet — contact storekit support.

​
Connect Your Restaurant

1

Open the Toast integration

Go to Stores → your store → Settings → Integrations, then select Toast POS.
2

Enter your Restaurant GUID

On the Toast POS Settings page, under Connection, enter your Toast restaurant identifier in Restaurant GUID.
3

Connect

Click Connect. storekit validates the restaurant with Toast and loads your dining options, revenue centers, service areas, payment types, menus, discounts, and service charges.
4

Enable the integration

Turn on Enable Toast POS so orders are dispatched to Toast.
5

Set the required fields

Under Additional Settings, set Alternate Payment Type and Check Discount — both are required once the integration is enabled (see below). Map your dining options too.
6

Save

Click Save.
When Enable Toast POS is on, Alternate Payment Type and Check Discount are required. If either is missing, saving fails with “Please fill in all required fields” and the field is flagged. Set both before going live.

​
Required Fields Explained

Both live under Additional Settings on the Toast POS Settings page:
  • Alternate Payment Type — the Toast payment type storekit uses to record online payments on the check. storekit captures the card payment itself, then reports it to Toast as this payment type. Create a suitable payment type in Toast (for example one named for your online channel) and select it here.
  • Check Discount — an open, check-level discount in Toast that storekit uses to apply any order discount to the check. Without it, storekit cannot pass discounts to Toast.

​
What Connecting Changes

  • Enabling Toast sets this store’s POS provider to Toast and links it to your Restaurant GUID. Disabling it clears that link.
  • After connecting, the rest of the Toast POS Settings page becomes available: Dining Options, Revenue Centers, Additional Settings, and Sync Actions.
