<p>CartPinger connects your WooCommerce store to the official Meta WhatsApp Cloud API so you can reach customers where they actually read messages.</p>
<p><strong>Abandoned cart recovery</strong> — CartPinger automatically detects when a customer leaves without completing checkout and sends them a WhatsApp reminder with a direct link back to their cart. No email. No spam folder.</p>
<p><strong>Order notifications</strong> — Send automatic WhatsApp messages when an order is placed, paid, shipped, or completed. Customers stay informed without you lifting a finger.</p>
<p><strong>WhatsApp chat widget</strong> — Add a click-to-chat button to your storefront so customers can reach you instantly on WhatsApp.</p>
<p><strong>Bring your own account</strong> — CartPinger uses the official Meta WhatsApp Cloud API. You connect your own WhatsApp Business number. No middleman, no per-message fees beyond Meta’s standard rates.</p>
<p><strong>Block and classic checkout</strong> — Works with both the WooCommerce block checkout (WooCommerce 8.6+) and the classic shortcode checkout.</p>
<h4>Features</h4>

<h4>How it works</h4>
<ol>
<li>A customer adds items to their cart and starts checkout</li>
<li>They enter their phone number and check the WhatsApp consent checkbox</li>
<li>If they leave without completing the order, CartPinger waits 1 hour and sends a recovery message via WhatsApp</li>
<li>The message includes their name and a direct link back to their cart</li>
<li>If they complete the order, the recovery is marked as successful</li>
</ol>
<h4>Privacy and data</h4>
<p>CartPinger does not collect or transmit any data to servers operated by the plugin author. Customer phone numbers and message content are sent directly from your server to Meta (WhatsApp Cloud API) using your own access token. All data is stored in your own WordPress database.</p>
<p>This plugin connects to the Meta WhatsApp Cloud API (a third-party service). See the “External Services” section below for full details.</p>
<h4>Open source</h4>
<p>Source code available on GitHub under GPL-2.0-or-later.</p>

<h4>Lemon Squeezy (only used if you enter a Supporter license key)</h4>
<p>CartPinger is fully free. If you choose to support the project by buying an optional Supporter license at cartpinger.com, the plugin verifies that key against the Lemon Squeezy licensing API once you click “Activate” in CartPinger <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Settings <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Supporter, and again once per day to confirm it is still valid. No other data is sent. If you never enter a license key, this service is never contacted.</p>

<h4>YouTube (only loaded inside the Setup wizard)</h4>
<p>Setup wizard step 1 embeds a third-party YouTube video that walks merchants through the Meta side of the WhatsApp Cloud API setup. The video iframe is loaded by your browser directly from youtube.com only while you view that wizard step in the WordPress admin. No data is sent from the plugin itself to YouTube; standard YouTube embed cookies and analytics apply per Google’s policies.</p>
