How it connects

## Ordering.co connects to Shift4 through middleware.

Middleware is the bridge between two systems. Shift4 already works with Stream, and so does Ordering.co, so your menu comes from Shift4 and each online order goes back to it without a custom build. Our team helps you set up the connection.
