SpiniX vs Toast Loyalty: FAQ

Can I use SpiniX if I already have Toast POS?

Yes. SpiniX is POS-independent. Keep Toast for payments and order management, use SpiniX for loyalty, reviews, and guest engagement. They don't conflict. You just drop the $185/mo Marketing Essentials add-on.

Does Toast Loyalty have gamification?

No. Toast Loyalty is purely points-based (earn X points per dollar, redeem for rewards). No spin wheels, no instant-win mechanics, no variable rewards.

Is Toast Loyalty really $185/month?

Toast bundles loyalty into their "Marketing Essentials" package at $185/mo, which also includes gift cards and email/SMS marketing. You can't buy loyalty separately. This is on top of your Toast POS subscription ($69-165+/mo).

Which is better for Google review generation?

SpiniX, by far. Toast Loyalty doesn't include review generation at all. You'd need a separate tool like Birdeye or Podium ($200-300/mo). SpiniX has it built-in — top venues see up to 63% of guests tap the Google review link after spinning the wheel.

What if I'm switching away from Toast POS entirely?

With Toast Loyalty, you lose everything — it only works with Toast POS. With SpiniX, your loyalty program is completely independent. Switch to Square, Clover, Lightspeed, or anything else without losing a single guest.

Is €79/month really the full price?

Yes. €79/month flat. Up to 500 spins a month on Starter (2,500 on Growth, unlimited on Venues), unlimited emails, Apple/Google Wallet passes, review collection. No per-visit charges, no add-on fees, no hardware costs. Every plan has a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Can I export my guest data from SpiniX?

Yes. Your guest email list is yours. Export it anytime as CSV. With Toast, your loyalty data is locked inside their ecosystem.
