Flaschenpost implemented an abandoned cart recovery flow powered by Loomi AI and pre-built cart recovery capabilities.
Key elements:
Real-Time Cart Triggers
The journey starts from a live cart_update event as soon as a shopper adds wines to their basket and leaves without purchasing.
Consent-First Targeting
Only customers with a valid email address and active marketing consent are eligible, ensuring compliance and focusing efforts on reachable, opted‑in contacts.
Smart Timing and Fatigue Control
A waiting period gives customers time to purchase on their own.
Additional checks exclude anyone who recently bought or already went through an abandoned cart flow, acting as a built‑in frequency cap.
Silent hours ensure messages don’t go out in the middle of the night, aligning with customer expectations in the Swiss market.
Loomi AI’s send time optimization capabilities help ensure emails land when each recipient is most likely to open and engage, based on their historical behavior.
Personalized Cart Reminders
Recovery emails highlight the exact wines left behind, with imagery and pricing pulled from the cart, plus a one‑click return to checkout so customers can easily complete their order.
How It Works
- Customer adds wines to cart
A cart_update event captures the selected bottles from the customer’s uncompleted shopping cart.
- Loomi AI checks eligibility
The flow verifies email validity, marketing consent, and recent activity (purchases and earlier abandoned cart journeys). Only qualified customers continue.
- Loomi AI and business rules set the timing
A wait node delays outreach to avoid interrupting organic purchases.
Silent hours and per‑customer behavior patterns determine the best time to send the reminder.
- Personalized email is sent
The customer receives a brand‑aligned email showing the wines they left behind and a direct link back to their saved cart.
- Customer returns and completes purchase
A frictionless path back to checkout helps turn initial interest into a completed wine order, improving recovery of otherwise lost revenue.
