What abandoned carts shows

The Abandoned Carts section shows you shopping carts that were started on your store but never completed as an order. Navigate to Abandoned Carts in the sidebar.
Abandoned cart tracking requires your WooCommerce store to capture guest cart data. Most WooCommerce stores do this by default when customers enter their email address during checkout.

Sending recovery emails

From any individual cart’s detail page, you can send a recovery email to the customer (if their email was captured). The email is sent manually from SaleTides.
For automated abandoned cart recovery email sequences, use a dedicated plugin like AutomateWoo, Klaviyo, or Mailchimp for WooCommerce. SaleTides tracks the data; these tools handle the automation.

Filtering carts

  • Date range — carts abandoned in a specific period
  • Cart value — carts above a specific value threshold (useful for prioritizing high-value recoveries)
  • Status — show only abandoned, or only recovered carts

What counts as abandoned

A cart is considered abandoned when:
  1. A customer added at least one item to their cart
  2. They began the checkout process (or their email was captured)
  3. No order was placed within a set time window (typically 1–2 hours)
Carts from logged-out visitors who never provided an email are not trackable.
