The plugin is a **thin client**: it never sends email from your WordPress server, never renders recovery templates locally, and never stores long-term campaign data on your site. The heavy lifting lives at RocketCart, so your WordPress site stays fast. #### What it does * **Captures abandoned carts** from WooCommerce in real time — line items, quantities, prices, currency, and the customer’s email/phone when they enter it at checkout. * **Forwards cart events** to app.getrocketcart.com over a reliable, queued sync built on Action Scheduler. * **One-click connect** — an OAuth-style consent flow provisions your API key automatically; no copy-pasting keys from an external dashboard. * **One-click recovery links** — each recovery message contains a single-use link that rebuilds the shopper’s exact cart and drops them straight on your checkout page. * **Conversion tracking** — when a recovered shopper completes their order, the plugin marks the cart recovered and reports it back so your stats reflect real recovered revenue. * **Recovery discounts (optional)** — when you enable a discount, RocketCart mints a real, single-use WooCommerce coupon on your store, scoped to the shopper. * **Custom sending domain (optional)** — send recovery email from your own domain. The platform manages SPF/DKIM/DMARC and shows you the exact DNS records to add. * **In-admin dashboard** — recovered revenue, carts tracked, recovery rate, and average cart value, plus your recent recovered orders. #### Requirements * WordPress 6.8 or higher * PHP 8.1 or higher * WooCommerce 8.0 or higher #### A RocketCart account is required This plugin is a client for the RocketCart cart-recovery service. You create a free RocketCart account during the one-click connect step. Recovery messaging, template optimization, and reporting are performed by that service. See “Third-Party Services” below for exactly what data is sent and why. ### Third-Party Services RocketCart sends cart and customer data to the RocketCart cart-recovery service at **https://app.getrocketcart.com** so that service can send recovery messages and attribute recovered revenue. The plugin is the _only_ component that talks to that service; no third-party CDN, analytics, or font network is contacted from your WordPress site. **What is sent (cart sync):** * Customer email address, only when the customer enters it during checkout. * Customer phone number, only when the customer enters one (e.g. the WooCommerce checkout phone field). Whitespace is stripped; the value is otherwise forwarded verbatim so the service can message in international (E.164) format. * Cart identifier, cart line items (product title, SKU, quantity, unit price, currency), and cart subtotal. * When a recovered cart converts: the WooCommerce order id and any coupon codes applied to that order, so the service can attribute the recovery and measure discount usage. * Your WordPress site URL (`home_url()`) and the plugin version, sent as the `User- Agent` and as a dedicated `X-RocketCart-Site` header so the service can route and audit by site. **What is sent (Connect handshake — one-time, on first connection):** * When you click “Connect to RocketCart” the plugin opens an OAuth-style consent page on app.getrocketcart.com, passing your site URL and a single-use random ` state` nonce. After you sign in / sign up, the service redirects back to your wp-admin with a single-use `provision_token`, which the plugin exchanges server- to-server for a long-lived API key. The API key is stored encrypted in the WordPress options table and is never exposed in the browser. **What is sent (single sign-on, when you click “RocketCart Dashboard”):** * A short-lived sign-in request authenticated by your API key, returning a one- time login URL the plugin opens in a new tab. Your WordPress user email and display name are sent so the service can match you to your account; no password is transmitted. **What is sent (custom sending domain, only if you enable it):** * The “from” email address you choose, so the service can generate the DKIM keys and DNS records for sending recovery email from your domain. **Why it is sent:** RocketCart composes, sends, and measures recovery messages on your behalf. No recovery email is sent from your WordPress server. **When it is sent:** Cart-sync traffic flows only after you have connected your site. The Connect handshake, SSO sign-in, and custom-domain requests fire only when you explicitly perform those actions in wp-admin. **Terms and privacy:** * Terms of service: https://getrocketcart.com/terms-and-conditions/ * Privacy statement: https://getrocketcart.com/privacy-statement/ RocketCart, Inc. is the data processor for information sent through this plugin. ## Screenshots [⌊How RocketCart works — install quickly, connect your store, and let automated recovery run.⌉⌊How RocketCart works — install quickly, connect your store, and let automated recovery run.⌉[ How RocketCart works — install quickly, connect your store, and let automated recovery run. ## Installation 1. Upload the plugin ZIP via Plugins Add New Upload Plugin, or extract it into ` wp-content/plugins/rocketcart/`. 2. Activate “RocketCart” on the Plugins screen. 3. Open the **RocketCart** menu in the admin sidebar — the onboarding wizard starts automatically. 4. Click **Connect to RocketCart** to sign in (or create a free account) and provision your API key. 5. That’s it. Abandoned carts start syncing, and recovery runs automatically. ## FAQ ### Does RocketCart send emails from my WordPress server? No. All recovery messaging is sent by app.getrocketcart.com. Your WordPress server only captures cart events and forwards them. ### Do I need a RocketCart account? Yes — the plugin is a client for the RocketCart service. You create a free account during the one-click Connect step in the onboarding wizard. ### Do I need WooCommerce? Yes. RocketCart’s cart capture and recovery are built on WooCommerce 8.0+. ### What data leaves my site? Only the data described in “Third-Party Services” above — primarily the customer’s email and (when entered) phone, the cart line items, your site URL, and — on a recovered order — the order id and applied coupon codes. No billing or shipping address and no IP address are forwarded. ### How does a recovery link work? Each recovery message contains a single-use link back to your store. When the shopper clicks it, the plugin rebuilds their exact cart in their WooCommerce session and sends them to checkout. The link is consumed on first use, so it can’t be replayed after the order is placed. ### Will this slow down my checkout? No. Cart capture listens to WooCommerce hooks and the Store API in the background and every sync to RocketCart is queued through Action Scheduler — nothing runs synchronously in the checkout request, so there’s no added latency for the shopper. ### Can I point the plugin at a different RocketCart environment? Yes. Advanced users can define `ROCKETCART_SAAS_BASE_URL` in `wp-config.php` before the plugin loads. If you don’t set it, the plugin uses the production service automatically. ``` define( 'ROCKETCART_SAAS_BASE_URL', 'https://app.getrocketcart.com/api/v1/' ); ``` ### Is RocketCart GDPR-compliant? RocketCart, Inc. is the data processor for the email, phone number, and cart data described in “Third-Party Services” above. See the Privacy Statement and Terms linked below for the current data-processing terms; if your store needs a signed DPA, contact RocketCart support before connecting. ### What does RocketCart cost? See https://getrocketcart.com/pricing for current plans. The WordPress plugin itself is free to install; billing (if any) happens on your RocketCart account, never through this plugin. ### Does RocketCart support multiple currencies? Yes. Cart line items are synced with their WooCommerce currency, and each cart’s subtotal is forwarded in that same currency — multi-currency stores are not limited to a single default. ### What happens to my data if I disconnect or uninstall? Disconnecting turns off the `rocketcart_saas_enabled` flag immediately — no further cart data leaves your site. Uninstalling the plugin removes the locally stored, encrypted API key from your WordPress database. RocketCart’s retention of previously synced data is governed by the Privacy Statement linked below, not by this plugin. ### Is the admin UI translated? All plugin strings are wrapped for translation under the `rocketcart` text domain, including the JavaScript-side onboarding UI. Translations depend on what’s available in your locale. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “RocketCart – Abandoned Cart Recovery” is open source software.
