Reduce order abandonment with our new add-on

Abandoned order, shopping cart abandonment are dreaded terms for online shop owners. 
Indeed almost 70% of users will leave a site or app without completing their shopping.

What is an abandoned order?
Order abandonment is when a shopper gets to the point in their journey where they add an item to their cart and then for some reason decides to leave without taking any further action.
For the retail sector, some of the most common reasons for abandonment are issues with shipping and shipping cost, decided to buy in-store instead, lack of payment options, or technical issues.
With our new "Abandoned Order" add-on, you can now take action to recover these orders with dedicated emails or push notifications.

From the list of abandoned orders, you can send an email,  a push notification, or both, to encourage your clients to finalize their order. The message templates associated with these actions are of course customizable.

From the new abandoned orders menu, you can easily consult the list of orders abandoned by a client or a lead, and intervene at the right time to maximize your sales.
