Keeping your online menu accurate and showcasing your best deals are two of the most effective ways to drive foot traffic and online orders. By integrating Treez directly with Weedmaps, you can automate your inventory updates and easily display promotional "strikethrough" pricing to capture customer attention.
Here is your step-by-step guide to setting up your live menu integration and leveraging strikethrough pricing to boost your sales.

Part 1: Setting Up a Live Menu Integration & Enabling Strikethrough
Before you can show off your pricing, you need to connect Treez to Weedmaps and configure your sync settings. Follow these steps:
Log in to your WM Admin account.
Navigate to the LISTINGS tab to locate your specific store listing, and select EDIT.
Select the MENU tab located at the top of the page.
Click the POS Integration button located at the top-right corner of the screen.
Clear Existing Menus (If Applicable): * Note: If you currently have an active menu, you will see a warning message asking you to delete current items or create a new blank menu.
Before you can integrate, you must either delete all current items on the existing menu or create a new blank menu and set it live.
From the Point of Sale dropdown menu, choose Treez (Crawler).
Enter your API Key and Treez URL, then click Next.
Configure Integration Options: Under the Integration options section, set your sync preferences using the toggles.
Enable Strikethrough Pricing: Toggle "Strikethrough Pricing" to the ON (green) position to allow promotional pricing to display on your menu.
Pro-Tip: We also recommend toggling on Auto-Tag Cannabinoids and Auto-Tag Strain to keep your listings highly detailed.
Select Save. Your live menu is now successfully integrated!
Part 2: How Strikethrough Pricing Works with Treez
What is Strikethrough Pricing?
Strikethrough pricing is a highly effective psychological sales tool. It displays a product’s original price crossed out, with the new, lower promotional price right next to it (e.g., Original Price: $50.00 | Sale Price: $35.00). Seeing the original price gives the customer immediate context for the value of the deal, making them significantly more likely to purchase.
How to Trigger the Strikethrough Display
Now that you have enabled the Strikethrough Pricing toggle in your Weedmaps integration settings (Step 8), Weedmaps will automatically read your pricing data from Treez. To trigger the visual on your live menu, you simply manage the discounts in Treez:
Create the Special in Treez: Log into your Treez portal and set up your discount, promotion, or special.
Apply the Discount to the Product: Select the specific products or brands you want to put on sale and apply the discounted price.
Let the Crawler Sync: Once the promotion is active in Treez, the Weedmaps API crawler will pull the updated pricing during its next sync cycle.
Verify on Weedmaps: The Weedmaps system will automatically recognize both the standard retail price and the new promotional price from Treez, generating the strikethrough visual and calculating the savings percentage for your customers.
