Smart Rule Engine
Recover More Abandoned Carts by Sending the Right Offer for Every Cart
Set conditions for your WooCommerce abandoned cart emails based on cart value, product and category. Set it up in minutes inside WordPress, no code needed.
How WooCommerce Abandoned Cart Email Rules Work
No code, no third-party tools. Set up conditional recovery emails right inside WordPress.
Open Your Template
Go to Cart Abandonment Recovery and create or edit a follow-up email template.
Enable Dynamic Conditions
Toggle on the Dynamic Conditions switch. The visual rule builder appears instantly.
Build Your Rules
Pick conditions, set operators, enter values. Combine with AND/OR logic for precise targeting.
Save & Recover
Save your template. The rule engine evaluates every condition at send time automatically.
Features Built to Recover More Revenue
Every condition you need to match the right email to the right abandoned cart, with no guesswork.
Match the Email to the Cart Value
Set a cart-total threshold and create separate templates for different price tiers. A customer who left $300 worth of products deserves a more compelling offer than someone who abandoned a $15 item. Match the incentive to the value at stake.
Send Emails Based on What's in the Cart
Target by specific product or product category. Mention the exact item they left behind, or run a category-wide campaign for your best-selling line. An email about "your Bluetooth headphones" converts better than "your items."
Personalize by Billing Country
Use billing country as a condition to send region-specific offers. Promote free shipping for US customers, local payment methods for European buyers, or currency-specific messaging — all from one recovery workflow.
Five Conditions, Unlimited Cart Recovery Combinations
Each condition supports numeric, text, and list operators. Combine them with AND/OR logic to build rules as simple or complex as your campaigns need.
