You can configure Dutchie E-Commerce to send automated email notifications to your customers regarding their order status. Some notifications are also sent by text message and/or push notifications if you have a mobile app.
Enable notifications
- From Dutchie E-Commerce admin go to Settings > Advanced Options.
- Scroll and check the box for Order Status Emails, then check or uncheck the boxes for:
-

- Channels: Email and Push.
-
Confirmed - Notification is sent when the order is confirmed, either manually by a user or automatically based on your configuration. This will include an order number.
- Channels: Email and Push.
-
Ready for Pickup - Notification is sent when the order is marked ready for pickup in either Dutchie E-Commerce, or in Dutchie POS when a user clicks Notify. Customers will also receive a text (SMS) message when their order is ready for pickup, regardless of this setting.
- Channels: Email and Text.
-
Out for Delivery - Notification is sent when the order is marked ready for pickup in either Dutchie E-Commerce, or in Dutchie POS when a user clicks Notify. Customers will also receive a text (SMS) message when their order is ready for pickup, regardless of this setting.
- Channels: Email and Text.
- Cancellation emails are automatically sent whenever a user cancels an order, and you've checked the main Order Status Emails box.
-
Submitted - Notification is sent when the customer completes checkout.
- Click Publish to save your changes.
You can also enable:
- Emails to remind customers to pick up their orders if they haven't done so within a specified time frame
- Back in Stock email and push notifications to alert customers when their favorite items have been restocked.
Find this option under Settings > Store Menu.
Notification details
Order status notifications include basic information about your dispensary including your logo and phone number, and an order summary.
Examples:
For emails, your store name as entered in Dutchie E-Commerce Admin appears as the "From" name in customer inboxes and the sender address appears as noreply@dutchie.com.
These notifications cannot be customized.
We recommend that you also enable Require email address for guest checkout under Settings > Options so you can reach all of your customers by email. The system will not notify you if a customer did not receive a message due to a missing or invalid email address so adding these details to the customer profile is important.
