Stop worrying about losing customers and trying to send them manual emails for their abandoned carts. Stop using emails which only have 5% to 20% open rate and switch to WATI’s new WooCommerce Plugin to send WhatsApp messages for abandoned cart recoveries and all types of transaction alerts.
You might not know the reason why carts are getting abandoned and even after so many emails no user is returning back, however now you can easily send WhatsApp messages which has an open rate of more than 90%.
Install and get this plugin with absolutely no coding and free of cost.
<h3>How does it really work?</h3>
The WooCommerce plugin captures the phone number entered at the checkout page, and saves the cart as it is.
It then uses that number entered to send WhatsApp message templates as required. The Message looks very personalised and also has a link to click on.
<h3>Unique Features</h3>
This plugin is not only for your cart abandonment recovery messages but also has a lot more.
Some of the really cool features are:
<ul>
<li>Customised Message – Send a customised message to every customer with their cart link and their name and you could add more details.</li>
<li>Shipping Alerts – Not only cart abandoned recovery messages but also shipping alerts or order confirmation and more.</li>
<li>Analytics – Have a whole new page of statistics on how many messages are read and sent, track your messages with WATI.</li>
<li>Pre-set Templates – Choose from templates that are already there for you and you have to just put them in place to make it a perfect message</li>
<li>Set The Time – You can easily set the trigger time for your messages to be sent, suppose you want to send your messages 5 minutes after the customer has left the checkout page, you can easily do that.</li>
</ul>

The Viking Abandoned Monitor is a lightweight, admin-only WordPress plugin that helps you identify potentially abandoned or outdated plugins on your site. It scans all installed plugins and classifies them based on their last update date from the WordPress.org plugins API.
Key Features:
<ul>
<li>Automatic Plugin Scanning: Scans all installed plugins and checks their last update date via WordPress.org API</li>
<li>Status Classification: Classifies plugins as Safe, Risk, or Abandoned based on configurable thresholds</li>
<li>Dashboard Overview: Beautiful dashboard with summary cards and filterable plugin table</li>
<li>Weekly Email Reports: Automatically sends weekly summary emails with top abandoned and risk plugins</li>
<li>Optional Webhook Integration: Send data to external services like n8n (completely optional, disabled by default)</li>
<li>WordPress.org Compliant: Fully compliant with WordPress.org guidelines, no deceptive behavior</li>
<li>Lightweight: No external SDKs or bloat, uses WordPress core functions only</li>
<li>Secure: Proper nonces, capability checks, and data sanitization</li>
</ul>
How It Works:
<ol>
<li>The plugin scans all installed plugins on your site</li>
<li>For each plugin, it attempts to resolve the WordPress.org slug (from PluginURI, UpdateURI, or folder name)</li>
<li>It fetches plugin information from WordPress.org API (with 48-hour caching to avoid rate limits)</li>
<li>Plugins are classified based on their last update date:
<ul>
<li>Safe: Updated within the risk threshold (default: 6 months)</li>
<li>Risk: Updated between risk and abandoned thresholds (default: 6-12 months)</li>
<li>Abandoned: Not updated within abandoned threshold (default: 12+ months)</li>
<li>Unknown: Could not be resolved or API error occurred</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ol>
Privacy & Data:
<ul>
<li>All plugin data is fetched from public WordPress.org API</li>
<li>Webhook functionality is completely optional and disabled by default</li>
<li>If webhook is enabled, you can choose to redact plugin details and send only summary counts</li>
<li>No data is sent anywhere unless explicitly configured by the site administrator</li>
</ul>
