Abandoned cart message offering help with questions
Turns the cart reminder into a conversation: offers to answer questions about delivery, returns or the product before the shopper decides.
Was something unclear? Many customers ask us about delivery time, warranty or returns before ordering. Tap a question below or type your own, and a real person from our team will reply.
It nudges toward an unfinished purchase, which Meta bills as marketing even though it reads like customer service. Sending it as a free reply only works if the shopper messaged you in the last 24 hours.
Variables
| Variable | What goes in | Example |
|---|---|---|
| {{1}} | customer name | Karthik |
| {{2}} | product name | the 5 litre pressure cooker |
When to use it
Use it as the second cart message, around a day after the first, or as the only one for expensive or technical products. Higher-value shoppers often leave because of one unanswered doubt, and answering it closes the sale better than a discount. Make sure someone is actually available to reply when it goes out.
Best time to send. About 24 hours after the cart was left, during your support team's working hours.
