Overview
With Docket's Abandoned Cart Email feature, you can automatically remind your customers about their forgotten items when they leave your online booking page without completing their purchase. This article explains how the Abandoned Cart Email rules work and what you need to do to enable this feature for your business.
How It Works

Criteria for Sending Emails
An abandoned cart email is sent if:
- Inactivity: The customer has not interacted with their session for over 10 minutes.
- Daily Limit: Only one abandoned cart email is sent to a customer per day, regardless of how many times they abandon carts.
- Item in Cart: There was an item in the customer's cart when they abandoned the session.
- No System Errors: The session was not associated with a system error.
- No Order Submission: The session was not associated with an order submission.
