Getting started for retailers

This guide takes you through end-to-end integration setup from authentication through to go-live. This is for Retail (grocery, pharmacy, electronics etc.) Point of Sale, middleware providers and ERP systems.

Wolt supports 2 types of integrations for retail partners: API or SFTP integration.

Note that both API and SFTP methods serve:  updating prices, setting discounts, updating inventory and item visibility, but they do not allow creating an assortment. Our onboarding team will support you with creating an assortment.

All order management operations like accepting an order and marking it ready will be made in Wolt's "Merchant App". You will be able to pull the order details in via API.
