Toast Mobile Order & Pay® Group Ordering: Overview

Toast Mobile Order & Pay®'s group ordering feature allows for multiple guests at one table to scan a QR code and begin ordering items on a single check.

  • Gives restaurants a seamless back-of-house experience, as all orders are on one ticket and guest names are displayed so servers know who each item is for
  • Allows guests to order their own items, without having one person submit the order for the whole table, or having each guest submit their own check separately
