FAQ
EZ WhatsApp Abandoned Order FAQ
Manual WhatsApp cart recovery, order updates, COD confirmation, pricing, and how this differs from API automation.
Can Shopify recover abandoned carts through WhatsApp?
+
Yes, merchants can follow up abandoned checkouts on WhatsApp. EZ WhatsApp Abandoned Order supports that through manual, pre-filled WhatsApp conversations rather than claiming automated API broadcasts.
Is this app automatic?
+
No. Recovery and order messages are manual actions initiated by your team using templates and one-click WhatsApp open.
Can I manually message customers on WhatsApp?
+
Yes. That is the core workflow: open WhatsApp with a prepared message and continue the chat personally.
Can I customize messages?
+
Yes. Create message templates for cart recovery, order updates, and related follow-ups, then personalize during the live conversation.
Does it work with COD orders?
+
Yes as a communication workflow. Many merchants use WhatsApp to confirm COD details before dispatch. Pair with strong COD ops practices; the app itself does not replace checkout COD rules.
Can I send order updates?
+
Yes. The listing includes order confirmation and status update messaging as part of manual WhatsApp communication.
Do I need Meta Cloud API?
+
Not for the manual recovery workflow described here. API-based automation is a different category of product.
Do I need WhatsApp Business API approval?
+
Manual chat via WhatsApp on your phone or WhatsApp Business app does not equal Business API template broadcasting. Confirm your own WhatsApp account setup for day-to-day chatting.
Is there a free plan?
+
Yes. Free includes a WhatsApp chat button, 150 manual cart recovery messages, and unlimited message templates.
What does Pro include?
+
Pro ($2.99/mo) lists WhatsApp Chat Button Pro, Google Analytics & Meta Pixel, greeting message with chat widget, unlimited manual cart recovery, and unlimited manual order messages, with a 7-day free trial.
How is this different from automated WhatsApp recovery apps?
+
Automated apps send event-driven messages through WhatsApp API infrastructure. This app helps merchants start and continue personal WhatsApp conversations with templates.
How is this different from Shopify abandoned checkout emails?
+
Email recovery is native and scalable. WhatsApp manual follow-up is better when your buyers live in WhatsApp and need two-way help to finish checkout.
Can I use this for pending payment reminders?
+
Yes. Create a template for pending payments and open WhatsApp when an order needs a polite reminder or payment help.
Can I recover incomplete checkouts?
+
Yes when you have a reachable customer number and a legitimate reason to follow up. Prioritize high-intent checkouts.
Does it include a WhatsApp chat button?
+
Yes. The listing includes a WhatsApp chat button for storefront support alongside manual recovery messaging features.
Will this spam my customers?
+
Only if your process is spammy. Use restrained frequency, helpful copy, and honor opt-outs. Manual control is an advantage when used responsibly.
Can I schedule automatic reminders?
+
Do not expect scheduled automatic abandoned-cart campaigns from this product. The supported model is merchant-initiated messaging.
Can I send bulk WhatsApp broadcasts?
+
No. This landing page does not claim bulk broadcasting. Contact customers individually through the manual recovery workflow.
Is there an AI chatbot?
+
No. Conversations are human-led after WhatsApp opens with a pre-filled template.
Does it work on mobile?
+
Yes. Manual recovery is commonly run from mobile WhatsApp during store hours. QA your templates on phone screens.
Do I need coding skills?
+
No for standard setup. Install from the App Store, configure WhatsApp details and templates, then train your team.
Who built this app?
+
Web6, a Surat Shopify studio. Support is provided by Web6 via the App Store listing and web6.in.
When was the app launched?
+
The App Store developer section lists the launch date as October 4, 2024.
What languages does the listing support?
+
The App Store listing lists multiple storefront/admin languages including English, Italian, Arabic, Dutch, Chinese, French, Spanish, Turkish, German, Russian, Japanese, Korean, and Portuguese (Brazil). Confirm current language coverage on the listing.
Can this replace my helpdesk?
+
No. It helps start WhatsApp conversations for carts and orders. Ticket systems, SLAs, and macros remain separate.
Should I message every abandoned cart?
+
Usually no. Prioritize high-value or high-intent carts your team can answer well. Quality beats volume in manual recovery.
Can I use this with CartPulse?
+
Yes as complementary tools. CartPulse shows live cart activity; this app helps you follow up personally on WhatsApp.
Can I use this with COD Risk Guard?
+
Yes. COD Risk Guard manages checkout COD rules; WhatsApp confirmation helps verify risky or high-value COD orders before dispatch.
How do I measure success?
+
Track recovered orders, reply rates, and time-to-first-response for your team. Pro lists Google Analytics & Meta Pixel for storefront chat tracking — confirm exact events in the app.
What if I need true WhatsApp API automation later?
+
Treat that as a separate project with providers, template approvals, and compliance design. Web6 can discuss custom Shopify app options, but do not assume this public app provides API broadcasting.
Can customers start chats themselves?
+
Yes via the WhatsApp chat button on the storefront. Recovery templates are for merchant-led follow-up after abandonment or order events.
Is EZ WhatsApp Abandoned Order the same as Ezychat?
+
They are related WhatsApp products with different jobs. Ezychat focuses on the storefront WhatsApp chat button experience. This app emphasizes manual cart/order recovery messaging plus chat button capabilities under its App Store listing.
Can I write templates in my local language?
+
Yes. Write template copy in the language your buyers use. Keep tone clear and respectful.
How do I get support?
+
Use App Store support for the app, or contact Web6 for broader Shopify recovery process and development help.
Where do I install it?
+
Install from the official Shopify App Store listing at apps.shopify.com/ez-whatsapp-abandoned-order, then configure templates and WhatsApp details in admin.
