<h3>Keep your WooCommerce customer data accurate and reliable</h3>
<p>Over time, WooCommerce stores can occasionally experience spikes in automated or scripted traffic that create large numbers of customer accounts.</p>
<p>These accounts often pass basic validation checks and may not be blocked by CAPTCHA or anti-spam solutions, especially when they originate from real checkout attempts or payment flows.</p>
<p>As a result, stores may end up with:</p>
<ul>
<li>Hundreds or thousands of customer accounts with no orders</li>
<li>Repeated failed checkout attempts linked to the same customers</li>
<li>Rapid growth in the users table without real business value</li>
</ul>
<p>Left unmanaged, they can:</p>
<ul>
<li>Inflate customer counts</li>
<li>Reduce the accuracy of reports and analytics</li>
<li>Slow down admin pages on large stores</li>
</ul>

<h3>What this plugin does</h3>
<ul>
<li>Detects customers with no orders</li>
<li>Detects customers with multiple failed orders</li>
<li>Collects results using a safe background process</li>
<li>Stores results in optimized cache tables for fast access</li>
<li>Displays customers in clean, paginated admin tables</li>
<li>Generates summary reports and optional admin email notifications</li>
</ul>
<p>The plugin runs background processes to safely collect customer data in batches, avoiding timeouts or memory issues — even on large stores.</p>
<hr />
<h3>Smart customer identification</h3>
<p>Instead of relying on simple rules, the plugin analyzes real WooCommerce data to detect customers who:</p>
<ul>
<li>Have no orders</li>
<li>Have multiple failed orders</li>
</ul>
<p>This approach makes the results reliable and specific to your store.</p>

<hr />
<h3>Clear review before action</h3>
<p>The plugin does <strong>not</strong> delete anything automatically.</p>
<p>Instead, it provides:</p>
<ul>
<li>Paginated admin tables</li>
<li>Detailed customer information</li>
<li>Order references for failed checkout attempts</li>
<li>Optional email summaries</li>
</ul>
<p>You stay fully in control of every decision.</p>
