Abandoned carts

Recover bookings you almost got. When a customer starts booking on your booking page but doesn't complete checkout, the attempt is captured here with their contact details — so you can follow up and win the booking back.


Quick start

  1. Click Abandoned Carts in the left sidebar under the Bookings group
  2. Browse the list — newest abandoned attempts appear first
  3. Use the customer's email or phone from the row to follow up

What's in the list

Each row is one abandoned booking attempt:

ColumnWhat it shows
ActivityThe activity the customer was booking
Booking TypeThe booking type they selected
Date / TimeThe event date and time slot they had chosen
Customer Name, Email, PhoneThe contact details they entered before abandoning
PeopleNumber of adults and children in the attempted booking
Total / DepositThe amount they were about to pay
StatusWhat happened since — see below
Abandoned OnWhen the attempt was captured

Columns support sorting and filtering, and the toolbar has a search field and Refresh.

Status values

  • Pending — captured, no follow-up has gone out yet
  • Sent — a recovery message has been sent to the customer
  • Booked — the customer came back and completed the booking
  • Cancelled — the attempt was closed without converting

Tips for recovering carts

  • Act fast — sort by Abandoned On and contact the most recent attempts first; intent fades quickly
  • Lead with the slot they picked — "Your Friday 7 PM lane is still available" converts better than a generic reminder
  • Sweeten the deal — pair your follow-up with a discount code for hesitant customers

Frequently asked questions

Why is a cart shown as abandoned when the customer says they paid?

Check the Status column — if it shows Booked, the customer completed the booking after the attempt was captured, and the booking is in your Bookings list.

Do abandoned carts block my time slots?

No. Only completed bookings reserve a slot.
