Screenshots
Research shows that 67% abandons the cart, which tells us that more than half of potential sales gets lost. This doesn’t mean that Abandoned Cart can get all customers back to your webshop. Some customers might not have had an intention to buy in the first place but was simply browsing for prices. No matter the cause the plugin will try to win back the leaving customers.
Abandoned Cart automatically sends the cart to the customer
With Abandoned Cart WooCommerce you can set a timer which defines the amount of time to pass before the cart is sent to the customer. This means that the plugin automatically tries to get customer with interest in buying, back to your webshop. The timer can for example be set to 120 minutes which means that if the customer has been inactive for 2 hours, they will receive an email containing their cart. If you don’t wish to send them their cart you can easily customize the message in the email.
Customize the message with images and measure the effect
The content of the email can easily be customized. Do you want to show the whole cart with images and buttons, or keep it simple? You decide! When you’ve made changes you can reset the statistics and see if the new look of your email generates more traffic than the old one. Under the statistics you can also get answers to questions like:
- How many carts has been sent to customers?
- How many clicked the email?
- How many unique clicks in the email?
- How many sales have you regained?
The Abandoned Cart dashboard give you a quick overview of important numbers regarding regained sales. You also have the opportunity to look through current sessions and activity and even send the email containing the cart directly.
The Dashboard is written in english and translated to danish so everyone in your organization can work with Abandoned Carts.
The Email template is build with Zurb Foundation email templates which performs very well in email browser clients. This ensures that your customers get the best impression.
Note about installing
The plugin automatically sends emails through WP-Cron which is fine in most cases.
If you access to create cron jobs directly on your server, eg. with Crontab, we advise you to call WP-Cron or Abandoned Car directly from that.
By doing that you’ll ensure that Abandoned Cart always sends emails as scheduled.
Contact your serverhost to find out if your server supports cron jobs.
The name of the WP-Cron job is “ac_email_carts”.
Here’s an example of a recommended cron job (If you’re unsure of what to do):
*/15 * * * * wget -O -"https://youdomain.com/wp-cron.php/ > /dev/null 2>&1
Then you’ll ensure that all of your WordPress and WooCommerce services works as intended.
