The details page for each menu has a Channel visibility section where you can choose the channels a menu is visible to. A channel is a device, an app, or a website where guests and servers can view menus and place orders. There are five visibility options:
Option | Used for |
---|---|
POS |
In-restaurant orders placed on a Toast POS device |
Kiosk, Toast Order & Pay |
In-restaurant orders placed on a Toast Kiosk, or placed using Toast Mobile Order and Pay™ |
Toast Online Ordering, Toast Takeout (Local by Toast) app |
Online orders placed on your Toast Online Ordering site or on the Toast Takeout (Local by Toast) app |
Customer invoices |
Customer invoices created for large orders and catering through the Payments > Customer Invoices page in Toast Web |
Online ordering partners |
Orders placed through third-party ordering partner integrations (for example, Uber Eats, DoorDash, Grubhub, and so on) |
When you toggle Online ordering partners to the On position, additional visibility options appear if you integrate with third-party ordering partners. By default, all ordering partners are selected. You can choose to disable any partner that the menu shouldn't be visible to.

The partner-specific visibility settings are available in the menu builder tool. Instructions contained later on in this section describe how to access this tool and use these settings.
