These Terms and Conditions (the “Terms”) apply to Toast’s Local Partner Advocates Program (the “Program”). By submitting a referral for a restaurant or otherwise participating in the Program, you agree to be bound by these Terms and Toast’s Privacy Statement.
Program Eligibility
Who is Eligible to Participate?

Who is Not Eligible to Participate?
Referral Requirements
Subject to these Terms, for each “Qualified Referral” that meets the following criteria, you will receive the applicable Bonus Payout listed below. A “Qualified Referral” is a restaurant that:
Verbal referrals will not be accepted.
Toast reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to determine the original lead source. Exceptions may be made, in Toast’s sole discretion, if the referral has not been contacted by Toast for at least six (6) months.
Bonus Payouts
Referrers may be eligible to receive a bonus payout for a Qualified Referral as set forth herein (the ”Bonus Payout”). Local Partner Advocates (e.g. consultants, investors, professionals and friends) may be eligible to receive a bonus payout of $500 for each Qualified Referral.
The Bonus Payout for a restaurant brand or group will be as follows. A restaurant brand or group is defined as either a franchise group or corporate entity and its affiliates (each “Restaurant Group”). For the first location in a Restaurant Group, the referrer may be eligible to receive the full Bonus Payout as set forth above ($500). For the second through the fifth locations in a Restaurant Group, the referrer may be eligible to receive a Bonus Payout of $250 total. For the sixth through the fifteenth location in a Restaurant Group, the referrer may be eligible to receive a Bonus Payout of $500 total.
Toast will determine, in its sole discretion, whether a referral is a Qualified Referral eligible for a bonus payout and reserve the right to disqualify any referrer at any time for any reason from participation in the Program for reasons including but not limited to Toast’s good faith belief that referrer has violated these terms. Subject to the terms herein, there is no limit to the number of referrals an individual can submit, or eligible bonus payouts for Qualified Referrals an individual may receive, while the Program is in effect. Each Bonus Payout will be made by direct deposit. Referrer must enroll in the Toast Local Partner Advocates Program Portal (“Partner Portal”), and provide a W-9 and ACH information, in order to receive the Bonus Payout and timely payment of the Bonus Payout is dependent on timely enrollment in the Referral Portal.
If a referrer does not enroll in the Partner Portal and provide the information needed to receive a Bonus Payout (or supplemental Bonus as described below) within one year after submitting a Qualified Referral, the referrer shall not receive a Bonus Payout for that Qualified Referral.

If the July Promotion is not claimed within the seven (7) day time limit, Toast may select an alternate winner with the next highest number of Qualified Referral submissions during the eligible period. The July Promotion (dinner and swag box) has an approximate retail value of $200 USD or its equivalent. Toast is not responsible if the winner is unable to attend the Top Partner Dinner or the swag box is lost, stolen, destroyed or used without permission. If the swag box is lost or stolen, it will not be replaced. The winner is solely responsible for paying all federal, state, local, withholding, and income taxes and any other costs and expenses not expressly covered by Toast in these rules, regardless of whether a prize is used in whole or in part. Any prize details not specified within these terms will be determined by Toast in its sole discretion. Any incidental expenses associated with the prize not specified herein are the winner’s sole responsibility.
The prize may not be assigned or transferred and must be accepted as awarded. You may not request cash or a substitute prize; however, Toast reserves the right to substitute a prize with another prize of comparable or greater value if the prize is not available for any reason, as determined by Toast in its sole discretion. Any difference between stated approximate retail value and actual value of a prize will not be awarded. The prize will be awarded “AS IS” and WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, express or implied (including, without limitation, any implied warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose).
Eligibility: Eligibility to participate in the July Promotion is limited to individual persons at least eighteen (18) years of age as of July 1, 2023. Eligible participants must not be directly involved in the planning or execution of the July Promotion. The July Promotion is open to legal residents of 49 of the 50 United States (excluding Rhode Island), void in Rhode Island and where prohibited, and shall be restricted by all applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations that may apply.
RELEASE AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY: By participating in the July Promotion, you agree to release and hold harmless Toast and its parent, subsidiaries, affiliates; and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, and agents (the “Released Parties”) from and against any claim or cause of action arising out of participation in the July Promotion or receipt or use of the prize, including, but not limited to: (a) technical errors related to computers, servers, providers, or telephone, or network lines; (b) printing errors; (c) lost, late, postage-due, misdirected, or undeliverable mail; (d) errors in the administration of the July Promotion or the processing of entries; or (e) injury or damage to persons or property. You further agree that in any cause of action, the Released Parties’ liability will be limited to the cost of entering and participating in the July Promotion and in no event shall the Released Parties be liable for attorney’s fees. You waive the right to claim any damages whatsoever, including, but not limited to, punitive, consequential, direct, or indirect damages. You agree to waive any right to claim ambiguity in these official rules. The provisions of the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 shall not apply to this agreement.
