Your Diet ID card (also called an allergy card or diet ID) is a shareable summary of your dietary needs, complete with a QR code, so restaurant staff can quickly understand what you can and cannot eat.
What the Diet ID card shows
The card displays your allergies, intolerances, diets, and other restrictions in a clear, easy-to-read format. Staff can see at a glance what to watch out for when preparing or serving your meal.
You can mark specific allergies as strict, which makes them stand out clearly on the card.
Sharing your card
You can share the card directly from the app. Options include showing it on your screen, sending it as a link, or saving it as an image to share in a message.
Showing your card in another language
Your Diet ID card can display your needs in a different language. This is especially useful when eating out abroad or at restaurants where staff speak a different language. For full details on the language options, see the related article below.
Good to know
- Always confirm your dietary needs verbally with a member of staff before you order, even if you have shown them your Diet ID card. A card is a helpful starting point, not a guarantee that a dish is safe for you.
- For severe or life threatening allergies, follow the advice of your doctor or medical provider in addition to using the card.
- The card reflects whatever you have saved in your profile, so keep your profile up to date for the most accurate card.
