Follow-up unfinished instant payment methods

Overview

2Checkout automatically sends out the Follow-up unfinished Instant payment methods email as part of the overall strategy to increase the conversion rate for new purchases. Shoppers receive unfinished payment follow-up messages if they place orders, but 2Checkout cannot successfully complete transactions and collect funds. This notification makes it easy for customers to return to the shopping cart and finalize a purchase without having to go back through the ordering process.

Availability

The lead management set of tools is available for 2Monetize accounts (merchants on the Reseller business model).

FAQs

Why don't I see the new template for this email?

The redesigned template for this email has automatically replaced default templates.

If your preview of the follow-up notification does not show the new template, you are most probably using a customized version that includes content and/or styling your company requested at a certain point in time.

You can compare the above sample to your current template and send us an email if you decide the new one suits your business needs better. We will work with you on the switch.
