How to show the legal guarantee notice in the cart

Overview

The legal guarantee notice normally sits on the product page, under Add to cart. On the Plus plan you can also show it in the cart, where shoppers review their order before checkout. It can show on your cart page and, if your theme has one, in the cart drawer.

Cart placement is an addition, not a replacement. The product page notice stays where it is. The cart shows one notice for the whole cart, with the same link that opens the official notice.

This article covers how to set up the cart placement. Whether your store needs the notice in the cart as well as on the product page is a legal question, and this is general information rather than legal advice. For a binding assessment, ask a qualified lawyer.

What you need

The app installed and the product page notice already working. If it is not, start with How to install and set up Pandectes EU Warranty & GARAN.
The Plus plan. Cart placement is listed under Plus on the Plan page.

Upgrade to Plus

Open Plan in the app menu.
Choose Monthly or Annual at the top. Annual saves 17%.
Under Plus, start the 7-day free trial.

Plus is $9 per month, and cart placement is one of several things it unlocks.

Add the notice to your cart page

Open Shopify Admin > Apps > Pandectes EU Warranty & GARAN. The Dashboard opens.
On the Storefront status card, find the Widget (Cart Page) row. It reads Not placed until the notice is on your cart page.
Select Add to cart page. The theme editor opens with the block already added, so you only need to save.
Save the theme.
Back in the app, select the refresh button at the top right of the card.

Add the notice to your cart drawer (optional)

If your theme opens a slide-out cart drawer instead of sending shoppers to /cart, the drawer is a separate surface.

On the Storefront status card, find the Widget (Cart Drawer) row.
Select Set placement and follow the steps in the theme editor.
Save the theme, then select the refresh button on the card.

Set up the cart page first, then the drawer. Not every theme lets app blocks into the drawer. If yours does not, the notice shows on the cart page only.

Add the block manually

If the one-click route does not work for your theme, add the block yourself:

Go to Online Store > Themes > Customize on your published theme.
Change the template selector at the top of the editor to Cart.
Select Add block, search for Legal, and choose Legal Notice (Pandectes EU Warranty & GARAN) on the Apps tab.
Drag the block where you want the notice, usually near the subtotal or above the checkout button.
Save the theme.
Back in the app, select the refresh button on the Storefront status card.

Verify it on your storefront

Add a product to your cart in a private window.
Open the cart.
In Always visible mode you see the official artwork. In Collapsed and As a popup you see the Legal guarantee trigger, and the artwork once you open it.

The cart shows one notice for the whole cart, not one per line item. That is intended.

If the notice does not appear in the cart

Work through these in order.

Check	What to do
Your plan	If the Plus trial ended, the store drops back to Basic and cart placement is no longer included.
The theme	The app reads your published theme. A block saved on a draft or a duplicate does not count.
The row	The Widget (Cart Page) row still reads `Not placed`. Select Add to cart page again and save.
The master switch	Notice & label > Active controls every surface. Off means nothing shows anywhere.
Admins only	This testing mode shows the notice in the theme editor and theme preview only, never on the live storefront.
Markets	If Visibility options > EU markets only is on and you are browsing a non-EU market, nothing renders.

If the product page notice is missing too, the cause is upstream of the cart. Start with Why the legal guarantee notice is not showing on a product page.
