## Description

CartRenew for WooCommerce helps store owners recover lost revenue by automatically
sending WhatsApp reminders to customers who abandon their shopping carts.

**How it works:**

 1. A customer adds items to their cart and enters their WhatsApp number with consent
    on the cart page.
 2. If they leave without completing checkout, CartRenew detects the abandonment after
    a configurable wait time (default: 20 minutes).
 3. A WhatsApp recovery message is automatically sent to the customer with a direct
    link back to their cart.

**Key Features:**

 * **WhatsApp Recovery** — Automated messages sent via WhatsApp using the CartRenew
   platform.
 * **Consent-First** — Phone number and opt-in captured on the cart page with explicit
   customer consent.
 * **WooCommerce Native** — Works with both classic shortcode-based and Gutenberg
   block-based WooCommerce cart templates.
 * **Easy Setup** — No coding required. Install plugin, enter your Store ID and 
   API Key, done.
 * **Configurable Wait Time** — Set how long to wait before sending a recovery message(
   5–180 minutes).
 * **Automatic Recovery Detection** — If a customer completes their order, the recovery
   message is automatically cancelled.
 * **Dashboard Analytics** — Monitor cart recoveries and performance from the CartRenew
   dashboard.

**Requirements:**

 * A CartRenew account (free trial available at [cartrenew.com](https://www.cartrenew.com/en/woocommerce))
 * WooCommerce 7.0 or higher
 * WordPress 6.0 or higher
 * PHP 7.4 or higher

    ID and API Key.

## FAQ

### Do I need a CartRenew account?

Yes. CartRenew handles WhatsApp message delivery. You can create a free account 
with a 14-day trial at [cartrenew.com](https://www.cartrenew.com/en/woocommerce).

### Does this work with block-based WooCommerce cart?

Yes. CartRenew for WooCommerce is compatible with both the classic shortcode-based
cart (`[woocommerce_cart]`) and the Gutenberg block-based cart (WooCommerce Blocks).

### Is customer consent required before sending WhatsApp messages?

Yes. The plugin adds a phone number field and an explicit opt-in checkbox to the
cart page. CartRenew only sends messages to customers who have provided their number
and checked the consent box.

### What happens if the customer completes their order?

CartRenew automatically detects the completed purchase and cancels any pending recovery
message for that cart.

### How long does CartRenew wait before sending a recovery message?

The default wait time is 20 minutes. You can configure this from **WooCommerce  
CartRenew  Abandonment wait time**.

### Is my customers’ data stored securely?

Phone numbers and cart data are stored in your WordPress database (`wp_cartrenew_carts`
table) and transmitted securely to the CartRenew platform over HTTPS for message
delivery. No data is shared with third parties beyond what is required for WhatsApp
message delivery.

### Which countries are supported?

CartRenew supports WhatsApp delivery globally. Phone numbers entered without a country
code are automatically prefixed based on your WooCommerce store settings.
