Must-Have for Recovering Abandoned Carts
By piemar1 on September 5, 2025
Cart Abandonment Recovery has been a game-changer for my store. The setup was quick and easy, and within just a few days I started seeing results. The abandoned cart recovery emails look professional and really help bring customers back. I especially appreciate the clear reports and the ability to customize everything to match my brand. Highly recommended!
Great cart recovery plugin

Love how well it works and the ability to connect other tools. Ottokit and cartflows are lifesavers too.
Work Well

Nice Work
Works as promised
By trcs on August 25, 2025
Definitely helped me not lose some sales ... as I can see who hasn't proceeded and can decide if I want to make a call for those where it could be an issue I can help with. And it hopefully its also been helping other NOT lose their cart so they can complete orders a day later. Good that it lets me set up multiple follow up emails. And be able to resend them.
Nice
