Setting a Default Message
A default message can be configured by typing in the Pickup Instructions. In the above example, typing "Pickup Next to Section 100 sign" will show in the text message the customer receives.
Unique Pickup Instructions
For businesses that need more specific instructions for each order, the default message can be replaced. These instructions can be typed or scanned with a QR code. This is a great solution for venues that use food cubbies. Tapping Notify Guest will send the Default Message if no message is typed. To learn more about using a custom QR, click here.
