Reducing abandoned carts through mobile app triggers on Shopify

By Gaurav Parvadiya | Last Updated On November 24th, 2025

Shopify abandoned cart recovery is critical for capturing lost sales, with over 70% of shoppers leaving without purchasing.

Introduction:

You’ve probably seen the statistics: over 70% of online shoppers abandon their carts and never come back to complete the purchase. This means there is a loss of over 700 billion dollars a year. But what if there was a way to turn these visitors into customers using smart personalized mobile app dragging triggers? The secret is not only in discounts, but in a business fully automated losing customers engagement strategy. The best part is that you can set this up without having to hire a developer to implement difficult coding. With the right no-code platform you can access these opportunistic conversions with no effort.

The Hidden Cost of Shopify Cart Abandonment – Why It’s Important

Every eCommerce store is affected by this, almost 3 out of 4 visitors will leave without making a purchase (Statista, 2023). With this loss of sales, there will be a loss of revenue, and a loss of ad spent to new visitors which will lead to a loss in return on ad spend (ROAS). When using traditional methods such as email reminders, it’s helpful but there is not enough of a personalized engagement to motivate the consumer to complete their purchase. Reality is, email reminders are too late. Most reminders come once the customer engagement has ended, and that is when a large portion of the abandonment occurs.

How about estimated lost revenue? For a modest store on Shopify, losing 20% of potential sales from abandoned carts amounts to a loss of $1k/week or more than $4k/month in lost sales potential. The solution, of course, includes timely reminders that engage customers. Figure out how to engage lost sales customers on your mobile app.

Shopify: App Notifications Boost Lost Revenue Engagement

Mobile App Notifications enable more direct and personal communication than email or other push notifications. Emails and push notifications operate on a more “1 to many” level, whereas mobile app notifications communicate with just 1 individual.

Shopify’s 2023 Ecommerce Report indicates that targeted push notifications lead to more than 30% of previously lost revenue to be retrieved. 90% of sent notifications are opened vs just a 20% email open rate (Localytics 2023). Lost customers feel more valued and this added trust increases the likelihood of lost sales being converted.

The Psychology Behind Trigger Success

People react to urgency, personalization, and timing. When apps send an encouraging message like, “Hey, your favorite sneakers are still waiting! Complete your purchase today to enjoy free shipping.,” they leverage FOMO. Using personalization, like names and custom images, double the engagement (Marketing Land, 2024).

Bottom line: At the right moment, personalized integration differentiates your brand from other competitors in the industry.

Cart Abandonment Reminder Strategies

Real-time reminders: Immediately notify customers when they abandon their carts (Push Notifications)

Time-sensitive discounts: “Complete your order in the next 30 minutes to get 10% off” (Time-Limited Offers)

Free shipping discounts: Cart notifications are sent when shipping becomes free, or when discounts are applied (Price Drop Alerts)

Browsing history: Complementary or similar items get recommended to customers (Product Recommendations)

Loyalty discounts: 15% discounts get sent out as “valued customer” offers (Exclusive Deals)

These reminders primarily keep the customer engaged but also urge and encourage them to complete their order.

Setting Up Triggers Seamlessly, Without Any Coding

Complex sequences and streamers used to take hours/days to set up, or even the hiring of external agencies. This is not the case with Twinr, as a no-code app builder that allows Shopify brands to set up hot-click triggers.

Link your Shopify Store with Twinr’s inbuilt Connector

Success Story: How One Shopify Merchant Broke the Barrier of 50% Cart Abandonment

After LuxeLuxe, a boutique fashion brand, incorporated Twinr to instantly send personalized push notifications, they witnessed a 25% increase in recovered carts and an additional 20% increase in revenue. This success can be traced to the context of the promotions and adherence to time, making customers feel appreciated and special.

How Email Over Reliance Is Detrimental

Automated email recovery is the common industry standard. However, the email recovery system has serious deficiencies and limitations: holds up the transaction recovery process, delayed emails, and the emails ultimately are opened and acted upon far less than a push notification.

Localytics states that proper promotional timing of push notifications can increase cart recovery by as much as 30%. When combined with personalized triggered events, your mobile app becomes a powerful tool in converting customers.
