Recover abandoned carts

Most carts are left because of an unanswered question or a reminder that never came. This plan brings some of them back automatically.

The resultA reminder reaches every customer who left a cart, at the right time, and you can see how much revenue it brought back.

Steps

  1. 1

    Connect your store

    Connecting the platform is what brings carts into Capi. No connection, no carts to recover.

  2. 2

    Turn on the abandoned cart automation

    In the ready-made automations, switch on the abandoned cart automation and pick the channel, template and delay.

  3. 3

    Set the sending rules

    Set quiet hours and a per-customer message cap so the reminder never lands at a bad time.

  4. 4

    Measure the result

    Open campaign and automation performance to see how many carts came back and the revenue from them.

Tips

  • Start with one reminder before thinking about a discount — many customers come back without one.
  • Don't make the delay too short: a message minutes after leaving feels like being chased.
  • Look at the numbers after two weeks before changing anything.
