Common Error Messages and Solutions

This restaurant is not recognized by the comp card provider

Issue: This occurs when the integration partner does not have the Toast Restaurant GUID placed on their inbound allowlist. 

Resolution: so we can get in touch with the integration partner regarding this issue.

This comp card is not valid at this restaurant

Issue: This occurs when the card number we send to the partner is not a card number that’s stored in the partner’s system.

Resolution: Determine if the same error message occurs when swiping vs. keying.

• If the error message is the same, you need to work directly with the partner to identify why the card is not stored in their system.
• If the error message doesn’t appear when keying, please

This comp card has not been activated

Issue: This message appears during a balance inquiry, add value, or redemption of a comp card that has not yet been activated.

Resolution: Activate the comp card using the activate button.

This comp card is already active

Issue: The comp card has been activated previously and cannot be activated again.

Resolution: None, the card is active, and the guest can use the card as normal.
 

Redemption

Issue: When redeeming, nothing applies/occurs on the check.

Resolution: 

• If occurring on an item-level discount, ensure that the restaurant is on Taxes V3.
  • If not, please
  • If the restaurant is already on Taxes V3, then it’s most likely that the comp card has no eligible redemptions for the check.
    • Perform a balance inquiry to determine what is available.
• If there are available discounts (check expiry!) but the discounts don’t apply to the check, ensure the items on the check are discount-eligible in Toast.
  • If the items are discount-eligible, the restaurant should continue troubleshooting with the provider/partner.
