TRANSCRIPT

OLO RAILS

OLO RAILS SETUP – OLO SITE Olo Rails will remove the extra tablets at the front counter for multiple 3rd party vendors. Once your restaurant is setup to sync with Olo Rails, you will no longer need the 3rd party tablet to receive orders. Rails is setup to work with both Olo Expo and Integrated POS (NCR) locations.

Olo Integrated Stores –If you have an integrated POS (NCR) and have registered for OLO, all orders will be automatically fire to your POS and a Kitchen ticket and Guest receipt will print automatically.

Expo Stores – All locations will have 3rd party orders sent to the Olo Expo tablet just like standard Cicis.com orders. The team member will then be responsible to ENTER THE ORDER into the POS using the current procedures.

OLO WEBSITE SETUP

To make sure that all orders are received at the current open times and you are properly setup with the 3rd party vendors to receive orders you will need to log in to my.olo.com and navigate to Store Settings and Rails menus.

Store Settings:

Rail Hours - You will now see an option for Rails Hours. These hours will be the same as your current Business hours.

Steps to change hours:

Go To Settings > Store Hours and select your store (if you have multiple restaurants)

NOTE: When setting up your Rails hours keep in mind that 3rd party sites will not submit orders that are within 30 mins of closing.

E.g. If you set your close hours as 10:00pm, you will not receive any orders from 3rd party sites after 9:30pm

Rails Management

With Rails you will have the ability to manage the menu pricing “markup” for your store. This will update your entire menu price by a certain percentage with the ability to round up. If you use this function, it is recommended that you use the round up function “Round Up to $0.05” and make sure pricing markup is the same for all the 3rd party sites. By doing this it cleans up all the prices and keep them consistent on 3rd party sites.

To access this function on the Olo site go to Rails > Management. You will select your store(s) and click on the 3rd party provider green check mark for the store.

Once you select your 3rd party provider, you will be given the option choose your markup percent and round up option.

OTE: Any updates made to hours of operation or to the Rails Management section will take anywhere from 4 to 24 hours to update on the 3rd party sites. Please plan ahead if there are hours changes.

Do not change this option. By removing access this will stop all orders for your 3rd party sites from coming in.

WHAT IS OLO RAILS Rails is a unified program that enables digital orders from third-party marketplaces to be transmitted directly to restaurant’s Integrated POS where Rails has been set up. With OLO Rails and an Integrated POS (such as NCR), all incoming orders from Uber Eats and DoorDash will fire into the POS and automatically print Guest Receipts and Kitchen Tickets. The ticket will be routed as a takeout order and will note the Guest’s name and vendor (Uber or DoorDash Order). Guest Complaint? If a Guest calls the restaurant with a complaint about their order, please direct them to:

• Uber Eats Support at 833-275-3287 or [email protected]

• DoorDash Support at 650-450-4940 or www.doordash.com/support

ORDER PROCESS FLOW (INTEGRATED)

When order is submitted via Uber Eats app or website, the order will use the following flow:

GUEST CHECK KITCHEN TICKET

This process only flows in one direction once Order is submitted. Adjustments or edits made on the POS or Olo are not reflected on the Uber Eats or Doordash platform and any cancellations, refunds, or edits to orders on Uber Eats or Doordash platform are not updated on Olo or POS.

AUDITING As part of your daily and weekly routine you need to verify that what POS and Olo is reporting as 3rd party sales is correct based on Marketplace reports. When orders are placed on Uber Eats using Rails integration, orders are sent to Integrated POS via Olo. All sales will be categorized as ONLINE under payment tenders for integrated restaurants. If a Guest cancels the order or requests a refund, this information is not sent to the POS or Olo. Since this information is not sent, the 3rd party marketplace reports will be considered the “Source of Truth” for the amount of sales generated based on completed orders, refunds and cancellations. Reminder for orders that are cancelled by the Guest but received in the POS, Uber will reimburse the restaurant since products were made.

MARKETPLACE FACILITATOR TAX Many states have enacted sales tax laws defining “marketplace facilitators” or “marketplace providers,” and requiring that these “marketplaces” collect and remit the sales tax on orders placed via their platform if certain conditions are met. Currently Uber Eats and Grubhub must collect, report and directly pay the states sales tax. If there is a local tax for your restaurant, Uber Eats and Grubhub will collect the taxes on your behalf and remit back to restaurants. UBER EATS You can view how much sales tax Uber Eats is collecting and remitting on your behalf as “Marketplace Facilitator Tax” in:

• Payment Detail Report in Restaurant Manager

If your restaurant requires a local tax, you can calculate how much is owed by using your Payment Details Report and taking the difference of “Tax on Food Sales” and “Marketplace Facilitator Tax” reported. GRUBHUB You can view how much sales tax Grubhub is collecting and remitting on your behalf as in the following places:

• Financial Statements • Financial Transaction History

If your restaurant requires a local tax, you can calculate how much is owed by using your Financial Transaction Report and taking the difference of “Tax” and “Withheld Tax” reported.

If you are in a state that requires a Marketplace to pay taxes on your behalf. To calculate the total tax you owe at the end of each month please see example below:

Tax Rate : 8.25%

Total Sales $10,000 Total Tax Reported in POS $825 3rd Party Sales (Marketplace Facilitator Tax) $1000 Marketplace Facilitator Tax Total $82.50 Tax paid by Franchisee to State Tax Authority $742.50

If your location also has a local tax, which the Marketplace Facilitator does not pay please see below:

State Tax Rate : 8.25% Local Tax Rate: 1.00%

Total Sales $10,000 Total Tax Reported in POS $925 State Tax Total $825 Local Tax Total $100 3rd Party Sales (Marketplace Facilitator Tax) $1000 Marketplace Facilitator Tax Total $82.50 Tax paid by Franchisee to State Tax Authority $742.50 Tax paid by Franchise to Local Tax Authority $100

FAQ:

Q: The store has not received any Uber Eats order via rails. How do I fix this?

Your restaurant may have been paused by Uber Eats because of 3 consecutive cancels/unaccepted orders OR failed courier request OR Eater cancels OR POS injection error (if POS-integrated).

Pause length

• Auto pause: When Auto pause is triggered, the store is then paused until 6AM the following day when it is automatically un-paused.

• Re-pause: If a store has 2 consecutive days with 0% of its orders completed and at least one order, the store will be re-paused and is paused indefinitely (NOT automatically un-paused at 6AM the following day).

Notification & Statuses:

Notifications: Users can leverage Restaurant Manager portal or the RM App (available on iPhone or Android) to get real time alerts of cancels and pauses.

Statuses: In order to see a consolidated list of all paused stores in a given moment, the corporate team or franchisees could leverage Restaurant Manager portal on desktop where they can also un-pause.

Unpausing

In either scenario (reactive or proactive), restaurant owners can un-pause stores by taking one of the actions below:

• NEW! Bulk un-pause or single location un-pause in the Restaurant Manager portal or Restaurant Manager App (Download app for iOS, Download app for Android)

• Bulk un-pause or single location un-pause in the Restaurant Manager Portal
