If your store or your customers are having problems placing an order online via Mobi2Go, chances are that we have seen it before and have an answer below.
Generally, there are 3 reasons why an order in Mobi2Go will fail:
- Connectivity - The connection between Mobi2Go & POS has been disrupted at the time of the order. This can be caused by a network issue at the store, the integration/application not responding on the POS computer (i.e. another resource taking up memory) or other reasons.
- Menu issue - There is a mismatch between the menu item in Mobi2Go & the menu item in POS. This may be due to the product/modifier not being available, the product/modifier not being configured as a product/modifier or the PLU and/or price do not match in either system.
- POS issue - This can be caused when there is an issue with POS whereby it may be down (for all sites) or the order (for some integrations) was not accepted when promoted at POS, when the order came through.
Depending on the issue that you have, will determine what email notification the store receives.
Note
If your Company/Store is not receiving notifications, please check your Junk folder. Alternatively please contact our Support team & we'll be able to confirm if notifications are enabled.
