Questions
Where do the menu prices come from?
From the restaurant. Each restaurant sets its own catering menu and prices with Pool, and every total is worked out from them.
Is the price I see the price I pay?
Yes. The options, the menu and checkout all use the same pricing, so the total on the card is the total at checkout. A tip changes it only if you add one.
How is delivery priced?
It is one line on the order, shown before you pay. Pickup has no delivery line at all.
Does paying by invoice cost more?
No. Card, invoice and PO orders are the same price.
For agents and tools: the same rules as data at /catering.json.
