Magento Abandoned Cart Recovery Extension
The Magento Abandoned Cart Recovery Extension by CreativeMinds helps you recover abandoned shopping carts by sending the shopper an abandoned cart email containing a link to the customer’s shopping cart and an optional Magento coupon code giving users an incentive to complete their purchase. Recovering abandoned carts is made easy for shoppers with one-click recovery.
Abandoned cart recovery emails are automated, making it easy for your e-commerce store to send custom cart reminders and recover sales. Admin can also monitor their cart recovery strategy with reporting features.
Abandoned cart reporting tracks how many cart recovery emails resulted in a sale and when emails were sent.
After just minutes from setting up the abandoned cart extension, it will automatically send the abandoned cart emails according to settings defined by the admin.
The abandoned cart extension allows admin to customize a cart recovery strategy. All abandoned cart email alerts, including follow-up alerts, will be sent with predefined delays set by the site admin, who can also define the number of follow-up alerts with a different delay time for each.
