Mcdonalds Rate Limits
McDonald's does not publish API rate limits because there is no public developer surface. Any rate or concurrency limits live inside the partner integration agreement (delivery marketplace, POS vendor, loyalty integration) and are not externally documented.

Partner-scoped limit partner-contract
partner-specific; not publicly documented
Rate limits are configured per partner contract (e.g. delivery marketplaces, POS vendors, loyalty integrators) and visible to that partner's integration team.
Policies
Backoff Strategy
Use exponential backoff with jitter on transient errors and honor Retry-After when present.
Idempotency
Use unique order / external transaction IDs on order creation and modification so retries after timeout do not produce duplicate orders.
Partner-Scoped Limits
Throughput, burst, and webhook delivery obligations are negotiated per partner and documented in the partner integration agreement.
