At Toast, we are committed to providing exceptional service and supporting your restaurant's success. If you ever feel dissatisfied with our payment processing services or support, we want to hear from you. We take all complaints seriously and handle them in a prompt, fair, and transparent manner.
This complaint procedure applies specifically to issues related to Toast's payment processing services and card transaction management.
In countries outside of the US, examples of matters covered under this policy include:
Transaction Processing: Concerns regarding delayed, duplicated, declined, or incorrectly processed card payments.
Settlements & Payouts: Issues regarding payout timing, settlement accuracy, or account withholdings.
Processing Fees & Charges: Questions, disputes, or refund requests regarding payment processing fees, fee accuracy, or transaction fee structures where you express dissatisfaction.
Onboarding & Verification: Delays, rejections, or difficulties during merchant payment account setup or verification processes.
Note: General technical assistance, address changes, standard account updates, routine fee refund requests, or general customer support queries are handled through standard Customer Care channels and are not classified as formal payment complaints unless accompanied by an expression of dissatisfaction.
You can lodge a complaint through any of Toast's standard support channels. Whether you contact us by phone, live chat, or mail, our Care team is ready to assist you.
Phone Support: Call our main Toast Customer Care line to speak with a representative.
Live Chat: Start a chat session through Intercom or Toast Web to share your concerns.
Mail: Send written correspondence directly to our physical mailing address.
When submitting your complaint, please provide as much detail as possible, including your restaurant name, account details, and a brief explanation of the issue.

Status Updates: If your complaint requires additional time or technical input, we will notify you and provide an updated resolution timeframe, which will be no later than 35 business days after we received your complaint.
If you are dissatisfied with our final response, or if your complaint has not been resolved within fifteen (15) working days, you have the right to escalate your complaint to the relevant financial ombudsman service. You have six months from receiving our final response to contact the ombudsman.
