Browse abandonment is an Enterprise feature that automatically sends web push notification to subscribers who viewed a product without taking any action.
The Browse Abandonment automation sends a sequence of 3 reminders and each reminder will show a different product that the shopper has viewed. The products featured within the notification is based on the most expensive products that the shopper viewed.
Note:
Only products in stock will be sent via browse abandonment messages.
Browse abandonment won't work if the shopper has added an item to their cart. (For this, see Abandoned Cart Reminders)
A browse abandonment sequence is canceled if a product is purchased
In total, a subscriber will only receive in total five browse abandonment notifications per 30 days
Browse abandonment won't work if all the viewed products are free
If there are multiple products of the same price (highest and most expensive), any one of them will be featured in the notification at random
The browse abandonment notification gets updated when a new product is viewed.
The three reminders in a browse abandonment sequence may show different products depending on the browsing history of the customer.
