Integration API basics

Wolt offers implementation plans that you can use to integrate with Wolt. These plans meet different needs of our partners. Partners must use all APIs in an implementation plan to achieve their operational objectives.

Check the integration implementation plans and pick one that is ideal for you.

All plans require development effort from our partners

Every plan requires the use of one or more of our APIs. Check out all available plans and APIs below.

Our APIs

Order management API

Enables partners to get orders and put them into their POS systems. Uses a ping and pull methodology - sends webhook notifications while partner's system pulls order details. Partners are able to use the API to accept/reject/mark orders ready directly from their POS systems.

For details, refer to Order API.

Enables our partners to push their venue specific menus to Wolt. This saves time and effort by preventing duplication of work. Partners manage their menus on their venue's POS or other menu management system.

For details, refer to Menu API.

Venue management API

Enables partners to manage their venues without having to use Wolt iPad. You can control venue's opening hours and status.

For details, refer to Venue API.

Merchant and venue structure

At Wolt, we have a merchant <> venue structure. A merchant can have several venues, but not all brands are merchants.

Brands can have several merchants, each having several venues. For example Burger Queen could be the brand and it could have either one merchant or several merchants, with each merchant having one or several venues.

API authentication should be at venue level

API authentication is done at the merchant level. To ensure that the above structure does not become a problem for scaling, we recommend our partners to assume that all API authentication is at the venue level.

How to integrate with Wolt

Integrate with Wolt by following the steps. Please reach out to a Wolt account manager to get the relevant documentation after an implementation plan has been selected.
