Print Your Own Allergy Card
in Minutes, No Account Needed

Why a printable card is worth carrying

A digital card on your phone works right up until the phone doesn't: dead battery, no signal, or a screen that's hard to read in bright sun at an outdoor stall. A paper card handed straight to a server or cook avoids those phone problems. Keep both when practical: save the emailed image offline and carry a printed copy as a backup.

How to make your printable card

You just saw a live sample above. The real builder works the same way:

1. Open the Card Builder and choose English for the free card, or select a $7.99 one-time Single Trip destination language.
2. Select your allergens and severity. The card preview updates as you go, so you can check the wording before you print.
3. Enter your email for the free English card, or choose the $7.99 one-time Single Trip pass for one translated card and its export options. No account is required for the free tier.

Two ways to print your card

Print the free image. The current builder emails the free English card as a high-quality image. Save the attachment or image from that email, then print it at home or at a print shop. Standard printer paper works; a plastic sleeve or laminate helps it survive a trip.

Use the paid printable PDF. A Single Trip pass or All Access plan can add a print-ready PDF with a cut-out card and trim guides. It is delivered by email after checkout; the current builder does not include a direct print button or PDF download for the free flow.

The free tier covers English only; Thai and the other supported destination languages need a Single Trip pass or an All Access plan. See our Equal Eats comparison or SelectWisely comparison if you're weighing a physical card service instead, do translation cards actually work for the case behind why the wording matters, or how AllergyPass works for the walkthrough from selecting allergens to receiving the card.

Frequently asked questions

Is the printable allergy card really free?

Yes. The free English card includes unlimited allergens and does not require an account or credit card. You enter an email address to receive the image, then print it yourself. Translated destination cards and printable PDFs are paid options.

How do I print the free allergy card?

The current builder emails the free English card as a high-quality image rather than offering a direct print button. Open or save the image from the email and print it at home or at a print shop. A paid upgrade adds a print-ready PDF with wallet-card trim guides.

Which destinations are included in the free printable card?

English is the free destination. The other supported destination languages require a Single Trip pass for one language or an All Access plan for all supported languages.

Is a printed allergy card safer than showing one on your phone?

Neither is safer on its own; they fail differently. A printed card cannot run out of battery but is a single point of failure if it is lost, damaged, or left behind, and its wording is fixed at print time. A card saved on a phone as an emailed image or wallet pass works with no signal, and you can build a new version when your allergens or destination change. It still needs a phone with enough charge to show it. Carrying both is the usual answer.

Does an allergy card on your phone work without internet at the restaurant?

Yes, once the emailed image or wallet pass has been saved to the phone. Showing that saved copy at the table does not need a live connection. Building a new card or requesting another delivery does need internet, so receive and save the file before you lose signal.

What if my phone dies mid-trip?

That is the main tradeoff a phone-only card carries and a printed one does not. Carry a portable charger and keep a printed backup. The print-ready PDF is delivered by email, so you need to receive it, print it, and laminate it before travel if you want a paper copy.
