Allergen Warning Display Messsage

Allergen Warning Display Messsage

Hi, 

 

I would like to suggest having an allergen warning display (like a little warning triangle) per product at the checkout screen, so the operator can see that that product has allergens (for example if something has oats in or soya or gluten etc..) and then a little pop up showing what allergens that product has. 

 

With Natasha's Law being so prevalent in the UK now, this would be a big help to avoid unnecessary incidents or even death if the allergy is severe.   

 

Thanks,

Hi @HugoCoffee, thanks for sharing your idea in details 🙂.

I understand the need to have a developed feature to display allergens at checkout. I'll make sure to pass your request along to the Product team.

In the meantime, a workaround would be to create a modifier and add it to your items. When adding the item to the cart, you'll have to manually select each allergen, but these will then appear on the itemised sales screen:

Or more simply, you could edit the titles of your items to include the first letter of each allergen present:

I understand this is far from perfect, but I'm hoping this can help !
