Hello,

I am looking for a solution to recover an abandoned cart. Remarkety is not suitable as it only works if user is registered. I need it for guests who add products to cart but never complete the purchase and dont register.

Any advice appreciated.

Regards,
Dan

Logically how could this work?

Can see placing a cookie but when he accesses your site from another device?

Micro-chipping the user?  ;)

I dont know but for BigCommerce it works with the extention:

The Abandoned Cart Saver will trigger under the following circumstances:

    A customer is logged into their account, adds an item to the cart, then leaves without having attempted to purchase
   A guest adds something to their cart, begins checkout and enters their email address, and gets as far as selecting Proceed to Payment

they save (probably illegal in most euro countries under data harvesting protection as they haven't agreed to having their data stored) the email address and must match it if they return and refill.

But who adds to cart, fills the email address, goes to payment then abandons the cart?
Doesn't sound like a very common occurrence

but you need to build a plugin that does the same.. not a small undertaking .. tables to store the info etc

AFAIK VM stores nothing until you register and then confirm the cart

Completely illegal what you require. I could be just testing your site as visitor and youll send me and email with an offer? Breaking privacy rules.

There is a plugin that adds customers that bought a product to a suscribers list in acymailing. Then you can add rules and conditions like customers who bought or didnt bought products from certain categories.

I think the closest you can get is with guest users that bought a product.
