SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Abandoned carts represent lost revenue, and email-only recovery sequences often plateau below a 10% recovery rate. This Skill guides you through building SMS cart recovery flows that reach customers within minutes, while staying compliant with TCPA and GDPR regulations. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Platform-Specific Setup: Step-by-step configuration for Postscript and Attentive on Shopify, SMSBump on WooCommerce, and Attentive on BigCommerce, plus Klaviyo or Twilio for headless stores. - Three-Message Recovery Sequence: A timed sequence (20-30 minutes, 60 minutes, 24 hours) with reminder, urgency, and discount steps, including cart value thresholds and single-use discount codes. - Compliance Guardrails: TCPA-compliant opt-in capture, quiet hours enforcement (8am-9pm recipient local time), STOP/HELP handling, and opt-out suppression. - Use Case: A Shopify merchant whose email recovery rate has stalled installs Postscript, enables checkout opt-in, and builds the three-step SMS sequence with a $50 minimum cart value for the discount step, recovering 15-25% of abandoned carts. ## Quick Start Set up an SMS cart recovery sequence for my Shopify store using Postscript with a three-message flow and TCPA-compliant checkout opt-in.

FAQPage Schema
How do I set up SMS cart abandonment recovery on Shopify?▼

Install Postscript or Attentive from the Shopify App Store, enable the checkout SMS opt-in with TCPA disclosure text, then build a three-message automation triggered by abandoned checkout events. Add an 'Order Not Placed' condition to each step so messages cancel automatically on conversion.

What is the best timing for an SMS cart recovery sequence?▼

Send the first reminder 20-30 minutes after abandonment with no discount, a second urgency or social proof message at 60 minutes, and a final discount message at 24 hours. Most recoveries happen on the first message without any incentive.

Postscript vs Attentive vs SMSBump for cart recovery?▼

Postscript and Attentive integrate deeply with Shopify and handle TCPA compliance automatically; Attentive's two-tap mobile opt-in achieves higher signup rates. SMSBump is the recommended option for WooCommerce, while Klaviyo SMS or Twilio suits custom headless builds.

Is SMS cart recovery legal under TCPA?▼

Yes, but only with express written consent collected before sending marketing texts. Use your SMS platform's built-in compliance tools for opt-in disclosure, STOP/HELP handling, and quiet hours, and never import phone numbers without proof of explicit consent.

Why are my cart recovery SMS messages not being delivered?▼

Carrier filtering commonly blocks messages with all-caps text, free link shorteners, or excessive punctuation. Use your platform's verified sending number, keep messages under 160 characters, and avoid spam-triggering formatting.

When should I offer a discount in cart recovery messages?▼

Reserve discounts for the final message only, and only for carts above a $30-$50 minimum threshold. Discounting earlier trains customers to abandon intentionally; use single-use codes to prevent sharing and control attribution.
