# micro-kitchen-windowless-checkout

_Witnessed 2026-09-04T22:22:24.148Z — QRATE-UAT-1_

_A kitchen with no collection windows. I want to cart something and check out. The board says pressing Place order opens a checkout that tells me collection will be arranged, and that confirming sends it._

**I press nothing that pays.** If the checkout asks for a card, that is where I stop.

### 01 · PATRON

**I expected:** There is something here I could actually order

**I saw:** 9 dish(es) I could tap; it asked about allergies first.

### 02 · PATRON

**I expected:** I put one in my basket

**I saw:** Basket shows 1.

> **What pressing "Place order $3.50 ›" put on screen:** held-cart-item-item_1788560563685_ivtd6s7rk, held-cart-total, signup-gate, signup-gate-apple, signup-gate-back, signup-gate-cancel, signup-gate-google, signup-gate-grabber, signup-gate-overlay, signup-gate-use-email

### 03 · PATRON

**I expected:** Pressing Place order opens a CHECKOUT

**I saw:** STOPPED — It did not open a checkout. It opened a who-are-you panel: "STEP 1 OF 3 · SIGN IN Who's this order for? There's no table here — the kitchen needs a name to hand the bag to. Sign in once and we'll remember you. Continue w

### 04 · PATRON

**I expected:** So I try to make an account, the way a new customer would

**I saw:** STOPPED — It now wants a code emailed to that address, which I cannot read. A real customer could; I cannot.

### 05 · PATRON

**I expected:** Failing that, I sign in with an account that already exists

**I saw:** STOPPED — locator.fill: Timeout 30000ms exceeded.

> **On this screen:** fulfilment controls none; payment controls none

### 06 · PATRON

**I expected:** If I am through, the checkout tells me collection will be arranged

**I saw:** STOPPED — I am still at the who-are-you panel, so there is no checkout to read.

---

**Verdict:** STOPPED

**Why it ended here:** It did not open a checkout. It opened a who-are-you panel: "STEP 1 OF 3 · SIGN IN Who's this order for? There's no table here — the kitchen needs a name to hand the bag to. Sign in once and we'll remember you. Continue w"
