Online Ordering

Many of your customers may request Weedmaps Online Ordering support alongside a Menu integration. Here’s how to prepare your integration to support Online Orders through Weedmaps.

How It Works

• The first step is a Menu integration using the Menu API.

• The second step is including an external_id when creating Menu Items.

  • This external_id should represent your system’s unique identifier for each Menu Item.
  • During checkout, Weedmaps will return this external_id along with the purchase details, making order reconciliation easier.

• In 2025-07, the external_id is required for Menu Items—if you're already including it, you’re nearly ready for online ordering.

Cart Quantity Multipliers

Clarification on Quantities:

A Menu Item on Weedmaps may not equate to a single unit in your POS.

For example:

• A Weedmaps customer may add “1 eighth” to their cart.
• You may need to receive this as 3.5 units, not 1.

To account for this, use the cart_quantity_multiplier field:

"cart_quantity_multiplier": 3.5

• You can set this on:

  • The Menu Item during Menu Item operations.
  • Individual Menu Item Variants during Menu Item operations.

This ensures order payloads correctly reflect quantities relative to your inventory system.
