What this workflow does

  1. Triggers when Shopify fires a checkout update event
  2. Waits one hour, so people are not emailed in the middle of checking out
  3. Re-checks Shopify to confirm no order was placed in the meantime
  4. If the cart is still abandoned, sends a recovery email with a direct link back to it
  5. Logs every sent email and every naturally recovered cart so you can track your recovery rate

If something fails

  • If the recovery email fails to send, it retries three times automatically
  • On persistent failure the cart details are saved to an Errors sheet
  • Your team is alerted in a separate Slack channel

Apps and accounts you need

  • n8n
  • Shopify
  • Resend for the recovery email
  • Google Sheets
  • Slack

Frequently asked questions

Does it email customers who already bought?
No. It checks Shopify for an order after the one-hour wait and only emails if the cart is still abandoned.
Can I use Klaviyo or Mailchimp instead of Resend?
Yes. The email step is a single node you can swap, and the setup guide explains how.
Is there a Make version?
A Make version is coming soon. The n8n version is available now.
