Abstract
A recalled item notification system may include a retailer server configured to operate a virtual shopping cart for products to be purchased by a purchaser. Each product may have an associated product identifier. The system may also include a recalled item server configured to, when a product for purchase is in the virtual shopping cart, obtain the associated product identifier for the product and determine if the product is subject to a recall based upon the product identifier. When it is determined that the product is subject to a recall, the recalled item server is configured to communicate with the retailer server to remove the product from the virtual shopping cart, and generate a notification that the product is subject to the recall and that the product has been removed from the virtual shopping cart.
