Release highlights in this article

New Features

  • Those who use the Aloha User Program are now able to select a reward based on what guests would like to redeem on their account.
  • Online Ordering now offers enterprise settings management, which allows clients to publish store settings across sites that have them in common. Additionally, settings that may be unique to a site (like the phone number) can be bulk-configured and managed on a single page.
  • Item tagging in Online Ordering now works with enterprise menu management and can be configured at the client level rather than just on a specific site.
  • Online Ordering now supports bag and cup fees at the order level via new configuration parameters. Expanded tax-and-fee logic also allows for minimum and maximum subtotals to which taxes apply.
  • Online Ordering has a new integration webhook that enables integrators to subscribe to menu updates so they don’t need to keep checking for menu changes.
  • The order-receiving tablet application for Online Ordering now supports a language toggle for the names of menu items. They can be viewed in a language other than English if proper translations have been provided for that particular language.
  • Customers can now be offered different levels of rewards and perks based on their subscription tier or billing cadence (monthly, quarterly, or annually). Additionally, free trials can be added to subscription programs.
  • After some initial configuration from a Paytronix representative, transactional emails can be set up to be edited directly by clients.
 
 
 

Updates & Fixes

  • Offline notifications for Online Ordering can now be set to go to an order-monitoring email rather than just the store admins on the site.
