Abandoned cart recovery funnel by push

Abandoned cart recovery is always a priority in eCommerce. You can help drive sales volume by using a sequence of web push notifications to remind users to retrieve the cart they’ve left on your website.

In this article, you'll learn how to create a cart recovery funnel.

  

Objective: Conversion.
Difficulty: Intermediate.
When to use it: Anytime.

  

This strategy is part of our pool of templates. To implement it in your account, access your Connectif account and go to “Workflows Create new workflow”. In the Create from template section, enter the name of the workflow (Abandoned cart recovery funnel) in the search engine, then click Select and Create.

 

How it works

To send reminders via a sequence of web push notifications, we are going to configure a workflow with three web push notifications aimed at contacts who are subscribed to notifications in that channel.
When the contact abandons the cart, they receive a first push notification. After this first sending, we are going to set up two other notifications as a reminder for the user, including wait times and checks to prevent users from receiving messages if they make a purchase before the end of the sequence.
