Amusement Connect Launches Toast POS Integration
Available now to Toast venues of every size, including on Toast handhelds
KANSAS CITY, MO – November 3, 2026 — Amusement Connect today announced a new integration with Toast, the point-of-sale platform used by restaurants and entertainment venues across the country. Venues running Toast can now sell new game cards and reload existing ones right inside their Toast POS, with no separate register or second system needed for the arcade side of the business.
With the integration, a game card is just another item on the Toast menu. Staff ring it up, reload it, and close out the ticket like they would for an order of wings.
Because it also runs on Toast’s handheld devices, staff aren’t tied to the main counter. A server can sell a card at the table, or top one off right next to the claw machine a kid refuses to walk away from. That makes it an ideal fit for a neighborhood bar with a few cabinets in the corner, and for a full-size family entertainment center too.
“Toast operators asked, and we delivered. Game cards can now live right on the Toast menu, sell from any Toast handheld, and close out on the same check as everything else. Toast runs the front of house, Amusement Connect powers everything behind the games, and together it just works. That’s the kind of partnership we look for with every POS our venues rely on, and we’re proud to add Toast to that list.”
The integration enables operators to:
- Streamline Guest Experiences – Combine gameplay, food, beverages, and retail into a single tab
- Reduce Friction – Eliminate the need for separate game kiosks or isolated payment flows
- Boost Revenue – Enable incremental gameplay by embedding it into the natural flow of the visit
This integration is ideal for barcades, restaurants, pool halls, and other hospitality-driven entertainment venues running Toast that are looking to deliver a more seamless guest experience. The news is good for route operators as well. Route operators with machines placed in Toast restaurants and bars now have an easy pitch for their location partners: by using Amusement Connect, guests can buy game credits on the same tab as their food, which leads to more play on the machines.
The Toast integration is available today for Amusement Connect customers using Toast POS. Operators can contact their AC rep for more information or reach the sales team at sales@amusementconnect.com.
