Lost orders can be recovered.
Automated flows that recover lost sales: abandoned cart, first-time buyer turned loyal, win-back of lapsed customers. AI-powered, GDPR compliant.
Updated: July 2026
How do I recover lost orders from abandoned carts?
About 70% of online carts are abandoned (Baymard Institute, average of 50 studies). You recover them with an automated series of three emails: one at about an hour, one at 24 hours with social proof and one at 72 hours with a small incentive. It connects to WooCommerce, Shopify or PrestaShop without changing your store.
Where an online store leaks money
Abandoned carts, ignored
About 70% of carts are abandoned (Baymard Institute, average of 50 studies). Without an automated email bringing the customer back to checkout, every cart is a near-finished sale left to vanish.
First buyer, never the second
You paid ads to acquire a customer, they ordered once, then silence. Acquiring a new customer costs 5 to 25 times more than keeping an existing one (Harvard Business Review).
Customer base, dormant
You have hundreds of customers who ordered once and never returned. A list you don't reactivate is dead capital, exactly when you need sales.
Recoverable revenue calculator, stores
Rough estimate (5-15% recovery). Real result depends on list and season.
Real results, on a Romanian store
Data from a real project with Mokko, a Romanian handmade-accessories brand (WooCommerce). The figures come from the platform and the store, published with the client's consent.
45% open rate on reactivation
We reopened a list of over 1,500 existing customers who received no emails. The first reactivation campaign hit a 45% open rate, over double the ecommerce average.
Story opens, offer clicks
Same list, same week: the brand-story campaign got 46.3% opens and 3.4% clicks, the 30%-discount one got 38.0% opens and 4.2% clicks. The list responds to voice, not just to discounts.
Over 6,500 RON tracked
Over the tracked period, 43% of the store's orders used a code promoted via email. Average open rate 44.6% across 10,131 emails sent, bounce 1.3%, under 5% unsubscribes.

What automations we set up
| Flow | When it triggers | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Abandoned cart | At 1h, 24h, 72h | Brings the customer back to checkout. The most profitable flow. |
| Welcome | On signup or first order | Builds trust, recommends products. |
| Win-back | After X months inactive | Brings dormant customers back with a targeted offer. |
How AI helps
The AI writes emails in your brand voice, and we segment by purchase behavior. Automated emails generate about 22 times more revenue per email than manual campaigns (Omnisend, 2025).
