# Toast **Canonical:** https://apis.io/providers/toast-tab/ **Website:** https://pos.toasttab.com/ **APIs profiled:** 26 Toast (NYSE: TOST) is a cloud-based restaurant technology platform that unifies point-of-sale (POS), payments, online ordering, delivery, digital marketing, loyalty, gift cards, kitchen display, inventory, and team management for restaurants of every size — from independent operators to enterprise chains. The Toast platform exposes a substantial REST API surface at https://ws-api.toasttab.com/, authenticated via OAuth 2.0 client credentials, and is used by restaurants, internal IT teams, and the Toast Partner Integrations program to read and write menus, orders, payments, employees, schedules, time entries, cash entries, kitchen tickets, restaurant configuration, gift cards, loyalty balances, and partner-restaurant connections. Toast offers three flavors of API access: Standard API Access (self-service for restaurant operators), Analytics API Access (Restaurant Management Suites Pro), and Partner Integrations (technology companies building productized integrations). ## Kin Score — 55.5 / 100 (strong) Scored 2026-08-20 under rubric 0.12.0.
