What is WhatsApp abandoned cart recovery?
WhatsApp abandoned cart recovery is an automated sequence that contacts shoppers who left items in their cart and brings them back to checkout. On Shopify, WooCommerce, Prestashop, Magento and BigCommerce, Spoki recovers 41% of abandoned carts via WhatsApp — roughly four times the 5-10% recovery rate typical of email-only flows.
What is Abandoned Cart Recovery on WhatsApp
Spoki’s abandoned cart recovery plugs natively into Shopify, WooCommerce, Prestashop, Magento and BigCommerce. When a shopper abandons, Spoki triggers a 2-3 message sequence (reminder, soft discount, urgency) with native WhatsApp Catalog and inline checkout, typically recovering 30-45% of eligible carts within 24h.
Why it matters for European brands
Cart abandonment rate in Europe is 70%. Recovering even 30% of those carts translates to 18-21% incremental revenue for a typical ecommerce — often the single highest-ROI automation a store can run.

Frequently asked questions
Is conversational marketing only for WhatsApp?
No. Conversational marketing can run on any messaging channel — WhatsApp, Instagram, SMS, RCS, Email — but WhatsApp is the highest-ROI channel in Europe because of its 98% open rate.
Do I need a large team to run conversational marketing?
No. A single marketer can launch 5-10 automated flows (welcome, cart recovery, winback, NPS) that run 24/7 without human intervention. AI agents handle most replies autonomously.
Is conversational marketing GDPR-compliant?
Yes, when implemented on the official WhatsApp Business API with explicit opt-in, audit logging and data residency in the EU. Spoki is GDPR-native and Meta Tech Partner.
