Por qué aparece con este nombre

Toast runs the ordering and payment systems for restaurants, cafes, and bars, so its prefix rides along on every card it processes. Like Square's SQ *, the restaurant's name gets truncated to fit the descriptor field, and online orders through a restaurant's website often route through Toast too.

Don’t recognize it? You might still

  • The final charge can post days after you ate, and for a different amount than the pre-tip authorization.
  • The restaurant's legal name may not match its storefront name — TST* HG HOLDINGS could be your neighborhood pizza place.
  • Online pickup orders placed through a restaurant's own site frequently bill as TST*.

Qué hacer paso a paso

  1. Match the amount, not just the name Restaurant charges post with tip included, so look for a recent meal roughly 15–25% above a number you remember.
  2. Search your email for the restaurant Toast emails receipts when you order online or tap your card on their handhelds. Search for 'toasttab'.
  3. Call the restaurant before the bank Restaurants can look up a charge by card number and date, and will usually refund honest mistakes (double-charges, wrong tabs) on the spot.

Preguntas frecuentes

Why is the amount different from what I signed?

The initial hold is the pre-tip total. When the restaurant closes out the tab, the final amount with tip replaces it — which is why the posted charge rarely matches the pending one.

I see two TST* charges for one meal. Am I being double-billed?

Usually one is the expiring authorization hold and one is the posted charge. If both post as final transactions with the same amount, that's a genuine double-charge — the restaurant can reverse it.

What other sites get wrong

Some AI-based decoder sites read TST* as a company name — one popular decoder labels it a newspaper subscription and even quotes made-up monthly prices. That's not what it is: TST* is a payment-rail token. Toast, Inc. is a point-of-sale company, not a publisher, and TST* always resolves to the restaurant listed after the asterisk.

When a lookup result tells you TST* means anything other than a restaurant or cafe payment, check the amount against recent meals before believing it — and prefer sources that name Toast itself.
