Now that pennies will stop being produced soon. Does Toast have a rounding plan in place? Banks are already warning of shortages.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hey everyone, just wanted to make a larger post about this and offer some insight. I apologize that this took so long to have updates around. The beta is live and available now.
I will continue to offer updates as I learn more about when it will go live. Thank you for your patience as we continue to develop and improve these systems! I have also attached some documentation around how this new system is intended to work for your review.

This is laughable! Come on Toast. Make this a priority!
I was traveling recently and have already ran into 2 restaurant that didn't have pennies. First one had a sign blaming the bank. The other restaurant didn't have signs, but the cashier told me when I pulled out cash. On the receipt I was do .08, she gave me .05. So, she shorted me 3 cents. Personally I think there should be a line that says "Cash Rounded Total" .02 rounds down and .03 rounds up, simple. Credit cards can still be accurate to the cent.

Hi Rob!
Is there any new information on the rounding coming from Toast? It is seeming more and more immediate for an update that will allow for automatic rounding.
I haven't implemented the work around loophole yet that has been offered yet because it seems like it will be messy in front of a customer.
How is the work around functioning for everyone that has been doing it for a month or so now?

We have implemented the suggestion from Toast and for the time being, it has worked fine. However, we would much prefer to have it automatic as there have been repeated errors as the staff adjusts.

Heard. That's what I'm worried about is lots of staff errors.....
Thanks for the feedback

Hey, It's been a while since this response. Wondering if there is an updated timeline for a more streamlined solution to the penny issue. Thank you
