Prepare an internal order and collect payment with Sumit

Admin → Orders → New order → Checkout

Check availability and prepare the basket

These two choices appear only when the restaurant’s active provider is configured Sumit. Creating an order requires orders.manage; entering a card also requires payments.manage. In New order, add items from a carte or the library and select Continue. The ticket becomes Complete order: choose pickup or delivery and the service date, expand discounts if needed, then choose the payment action. The total must be positive. Sumit does not support weighted items requiring authorization. Record a received payment and Pay later remain separate choices; neither is selected by default.

Send the customer a Foody basket link

Choose Payment link, then Create payment link. The confirmation screen shows Awaiting payment; use Copy link. The admin does not have to fill in the customer’s name, phone or address. Copy the private Foody link and share it only with the intended customer. The recipient sees the prepared items, chosen options, total, discount, service date and delivery fee; they enter their own name and phone, optional email, and the delivery address when needed. Items, discounts and service date are prepared by the restaurant. For delivery, enter the address and choose Calculate delivery and total. Foody checks the restaurant’s delivery zone, service availability and minimum, recalculates delivery fees and applicable discounts, and displays the final total. Review it, then choose Pay securely with Sumit. A changed fee requires another review; the client cannot set their own fee. Contact the restaurant for an unavailable service date. Pickup proceeds directly to Sumit’s hosted form. The link expires 24 hours after creation; the background cancellation process releases an expired unpaid basket’s stock reservations. A paid order offers View order and cannot start another payment. For an address in a zone with delivery weekdays, the retained slot must also fit the restaurant’s delivery hours and slots. An incompatible slot blocks continuation; ask staff to correct the date or address before resuming. This check does not start a new preparation delay for an already prepared basket.

Use the restaurant’s existing cart and theme

The private link opens the same cart page as the restaurant website, with its logo, colors, fonts and published order-page settings. Review the basket, then choose Continue to payment to use the existing checkout form. The restaurant’s published fields and labels are reused; custom answers and notes are saved on this order. Prepared items, prices, discount and service date stay fixed. A personal basket already in the browser is kept separately. This link does not load an account, saved address or saved card. For delivery, calculate and review the final amount; changing the address requires a new calculation. Once payment has started, resuming retains the bound contact details without collecting them again. Previously created Foody links also enter this journey.

Enter the card from Admin

Choose Charge a card in Complete order, fill in the customer name and phone and, for delivery, the address. Review the service date and final total, then select Open secure payment once. This creates the order and opens Sumit’s hosted form inside Admin. Enter the card only there; Foody has no card-number or CVV field in this flow. Open the same payment in a new tab is available if the embedded form cannot be used. The order stays pending while the payment is processed; Payment confirmed appears only after the API records Sumit confirmation. Closing the form or a successful page load does not mark the order paid. To resume later, select the saved order in Orders and use Open secure Sumit payment. Resuming opens the same hosted payment, without recreating the order.

Recover an interrupted checkout

The prepared basket is immutable while pending. To change its items, discount or fulfillment quote, cancel it and prepare a replacement after checking the payment state. Customer details bind on the first payment-opening action; Resume the same payment retains them. If the result is uncertain, check this saved order and Sumit before creating or collecting another payment. A provider or persistence failure may keep the checkout blocked for review. An invalid, expired or closed link, or a provider change away from Sumit, requires contacting the restaurant. These flows do not save a reusable card, send a payment link automatically or confirm kitchen dispatch before payment.

Review independent confirmations

The summary distinguishes recorded collections and refunds, net received and the remaining balance. An unknown value is not zero; a refund does not automatically recreate debt. The summary authorizes no new charge and existing financial flows remain required. See recorded amounts.
