Transaction types

This section provides information about the way the Toast loyalty integration API transactions correspond to Toast platform transactions.

The Toast platform sends requests to your integration API when restaurant employees perform loyalty program transactions at a restaurant. You can identify the transaction type for each request using the Toast-Transaction-Type HTTP header parameter. The information that you receive in the request body depends on the transaction type. Your integration service must return response data synchronously. Your response includes information such as the offers available to a loyalty program member and error codes that are defined by the integration API specification.

The loyalty integration API supports the following transaction types:

  • LOYALTY_SEARCH: Retrieve a list of loyalty accounts that match search criteria.

  • LOYALTY_INQUIRE: Retrieve list of available offers for a loyalty member, as well as verify offers that have been applied to the check.

  • LOYALTY_REDEEM: Redeem the offers applied to a check.

  • LOYALTY_ACCRUE: Describe the member's purchases to earn credit for future rewards.

  • LOYALTY_REVERSE: Reverse a previous LOYALTY_REDEEM or LOYALTY_ACCRUE transaction.

The following sections provide information about Toast loyalty integration transaction types.

LOYALTY_SEARCH

The search workflow occurs when a restaurant employee selects the Rewards button in the Toast POS app and the restaurant guest has not already provided an identifying card or other form of loyalty program account identification.

Search workflow

  1. The restaurant employee selects the Rewards button in the Toast POS app and enters identifying information (name, email address, or phone number) about a restaurant guest.

  2. The POS sends a search request to your loyalty program integration. The request body includes a TransactionInformationSearch object holding identifying information about the restaurant guest.

  3. Your loyalty program integration responds to the search request. The request body includes a ResponseSearch object holding list of loyalty accounts that match the search criteria. The HTTP header for the response includes a 200 HTTP response code if there is at least one account found or a 404 HTTP response code if there are no accounts found.

  4. The restaurant employee selects the correct account or cancels the workflow.

Loyalty account search request

{
  "toastTransactionType":"LOYALTY_SEARCH",
  "searchTransactionInformation":{
    "searchCriteria":{
      "firstName":"James",
      "lastName":"Smith",
      "email":null,
      "phone":null
    }
  },
  "checkTransactionInformation":null,
  "reverseTransactionInformation":null
}

Successful loyalty account search response (200 HTTP code)

{
  "searchResponse":{
    "accounts":[
      {
        "identifier":"1",
        "firstName":"james",
        "lastName":"smith",
        "phone":"1111111111",
        "email":"a1@toasttab.com",
        "pointsBalance":401
      }
    ]
  },
  "transactionStatus":"ACCEPT"
}

1

You may return a pointsBalance in your response to a LOYALTY_SEARCH request, but this balance will not display on the POS. The points balance only displays on the POS in response to LOYALTY_INQUIRE requests.

Loyalty account search response with no accounts found (404 HTTP code)

{
  "transactionStatus":"ERROR_ACCOUNT_INVALID"
}

LOYALTY_INQUIRE

The inquire workflow occurs when a restaurant employee selects the Rewards button in the Toast POS app if a restaurant guest's loyalty account has already been found. The Toast platform might send multiple inquire transactions while handling a single purchase interaction for a restaurant guest.

Inquire workflow

  1. The restaurant employee selects a guest's loyalty account from search results or scans, swipes, or keys in the loyalty account identifier in the Toast POS app.

  2. The POS sends an inquire request to your loyalty program integration. The request body includes a TransactionInformationCheck object holding the following information:

    • The loyalty program account information that identifies the guest.

    • The restaurant check for the guest. The check might include menu item selections or have no selections. The check might include loyalty program offers that have already been applied (redemptions).

  3. Your loyalty program integration responds to the inquire request. The request body includes a ResponseCheck object holding the following information:

    • A list of available offers. You determine which offers to include in the list. If an item-level offer is available, you must specify the item GUID so the POS knows which item it applies to.

      Each offer contains a boolean value indicating whether the offer is applicable based on the current check contents. If the offer is not applicable, the POS will display the offer with formatting to indicate that it is not available (for example, light gray text) and without a Redeem button.

    • A list of offers that are currently applied to the check that are not valid. The POS will remove those offers from the check.

    • A list of offers that are currently applied to the check (redemptions) that are valid.

    • A ResponseCheck object must include an accountInfo value.

    • If you include a numeric pointsBalance on your ResponseCheck object, the points balance will display on the POS.

  4. The restaurant employee might make changes to the check. For example:

    • Apply and remove loyalty program offers based on the offers that the guest chooses. Each time the employee selects the Rewards button, the Toast platform sends an inquire request.

    • Add and remove items from the check.

    • Apply and remove discounts that are not associated with the loyalty program to and from the check.

  5. The restaurant employee finishes entering the guest's order and enters the payment screen of the POS.

  6. The POS sends another inquire request. This request repeats step Step 2.

  7. Your loyalty program integration responds to the inquire request. This response repeats step Step 3.

  8. The POS processes the payment and completes the guest transaction.

When discounts display on the POS, all applicable discounts display first, followed by all discounts that are not applicable. Within each type of discount (applicable and non-applicable), discounts are ordered by name alphabetically.

In all scenarios, response contains a list of accepted and rejected redemptions, if any.

  • If ACCEPTED, redemption is added to check as a discount.

  • If REJECTED, redemption is removed from the check with an error message.

    This is still possible if the check changes. For example, add two pizzas to the order and apply a BOGO discount, buy two pizzas and get a pizza for free. Then remove one of the pizzas. The next inquire will indicate that the offer which was previously applied is rejected because the check does not have the items that are needed to qualify for the offer.

Note

The Toast platform changes the tabName of the check with the firstName and lastName from the accountInfo object that is in the loyalty program integration response to the inquire request.

LOYALTY_REDEEM

The redeem workflow occurs when the Toast platform processes a guest payment and completes a purchase transaction.

The redeem transaction follows the final inquire transaction during the payment process of the guest purchase transaction.

Redeem workflow

  1. The POS sends a redeem request. The request body includes a TransactionInformationCheck object holding the following information:

    • The loyalty program account information that identifies the guest.

    • The restaurant check for the guest. The check might include menu item selections or have no selections. The check might include loyalty program offers that have been applied.

  2. Your loyalty program integration responds to the redeem request. The request body might include a ResponseCheck object holding the following information:

    • A list of offers that are currently applied to the check that are not valid. The POS will remove those offers from the check.

  3. The POS processes the payment and completes the guest transaction.

Note

The Toast platform does not process rewards offer redemptions when a restaurant experiences an Internet outage or other network disruption. When a restaurant does not have a functioning network, it is in offline mode. For more information, see Offline mode overview.

1

The rejectedRedemptions array is empty because your loyalty program service determined that all of the redeemed reward offers in the redeem request are valid. If your loyalty program service determines that a redeemed reward is not valid, you must include a RejectedRedemption object in this array. For more information, see Handling redeemed offers that are not valid.

2

The appliedRedemptions array includes a Redemption object for each rewards offer that your loyalty program service determines is valid for the loyalty account and the current guest check.

3

In this example, since the quantity of the applied redemption is 2 and the amount is 5, the total amount discounted will be 10.

4

Set the transactionStatus to ACCEPT to indicate that your service has successfully processed the request. The status is ACCEPT even when you determine that some redeemed rewards offers are not valid.


Handling redeemed offers that are not valid

Each time a restaurant guest chooses to redeem a reward offer, the Toast platform sends a redeem request. If you determine that the reward offer is no longer valid:

  • Include ACCEPT in the transactionStatus value of the LoyaltyTransactionResponse object you return to the Toast platform.

  • Include a RejectedRedemption object for each reward offer that is no longer valid in the rejectedRedemptions value of the LoyaltyTransactionResponse object. Each RejectedRedemption object is required to include a Redemption object with the appliedDiscountGuid value to identify the rejected reward.

  • The Toast platform updates the check. If the guest chooses to redeem another reward offer, the POS sends another redeem request.

LOYALTY_ACCRUE

Note

The Toast platform does not send accrue requests when a restaurant experiences an internet outage or other network disruption. A Toast POS device stores payments and sends accrue requests for them when the device is connected to the network again. When a restaurant does not have a functioning network, it is in offline mode. For more information, see Offline mode overview.

The accrue workflow occurs as an asynchronous process after a guest pays for a check. The Toast platform sends a LOYALTY_ACCRUE request regardless of the presence of a loyaltyIdentifier.

Accrue workflow

  1. The POS sends an accrue request. The request body includes a TransactionInformationCheck object holding the following information:

    • The loyalty program account information that identifies the guest.

    • The restaurant check for the guest. The check might include menu item selections or have no selections. The check might include loyalty program offers that have been applied.

  2. Your loyalty program integration responds to the accrue request. The request body might include a ResponseCheck object holding the following information:

    • A list of offers that are currently applied to the check that are not valid. The POS will remove those offers from the check.

Enabling loyalty messages and QR codes on guest receipts

If your loyalty program integration allows guests to earn points by scanning a QR code on their receipt, the Toast platform will print the QR code if both of the following conditions are met:

  • No loyalty account is associated with the check

  • The check is in the CLOSED state

If both conditions are met, Toast prints the guest receipt with a QR code. When your guest scans the QR code, a pop-up banner appears with the LOCATION_GUID:ORDER_GUID:CHECK_GUID. This information is used to look up the guest’s order and apply points to their loyalty account in your integration.

Note

If a guest receipt needs to be reprinted after the check has been closed and the QR code has been printed, the receipt must be reprinted from the Payment Terminal screen on the Toast POS device. For more information, see Reprint and Resend Receipts.

Additionally, you can choose to print an optional customizable message on your guest’s receipt by populating the userMessage field in a LOYALTY_ACCRUE transaction. For more information, see Loyalty integration specification.

LOYALTY_REVERSE

The reverse workflow occurs when a restaurant employee voids (undoes) a guest's check or voids items that were affected by a loyalty program offer.

Reverse workflow

  1. The POS sends a reverse request. The request body includes a TransactionInformationReverse object holding the following information:

    • The loyalty program account information that identifies the guest.

    • The identifier of the previous loyalty program transaction that needs to be reversed. The identifier of a transaction is in the Toast-Transaction-GUID header parameter of the transaction request.

  2. Your loyalty program integration responds to the response request. The request body indicates the success or failure of the reverse transaction.

        "quantity":1
      }
    ]
  }
}

Triggering a reverse transaction

You can only reverse redeem and accrue transactions. You reverse redeem and accrue transactions you void menu item selections, payments, and checks. For information about voiding items, payments, and checks in the Toast POS app, see this Toast central article.

The redeem transaction occurs during the payment process. You can reverse a redeem transaction after payment by voiding the entire check or voiding a menu item selection that is related to the redeem transaction.

The accrue transaction occurs asynchronously after you complete the payment process. You can reverse an accrue transaction by voiding the entire check or by making a change to the payment.

Example of changing payment

  1. You process a credit card payment.

  2. The check is still open.

  3. The guest leaves a tip. The guest modifies the payment by adding a tip to the total.

  4. Although there may not be a change in the accrual amount, modifying the payment triggers a reverse transaction for the accrue transaction for the payment and it triggers a new accrue transaction for the updated payment.
