How to Set Up the Cart Abandonment Flow with Elevar

Overview

The Cart Abandonment Flow in Klaviyo triggers when users add an item to their cart but don’t check out. Enhance the capture rate using Elevar’s server-side tracking and session enrichment. Follow this guide to learn how to set up the Cart Abandonment Flow.

Understanding the Customer Journey:

A user clicks a product ad and lands on your website. A popup appears offering 20% off in exchange for their email address. The user submits their email and adds a product to their cart. However, they don’t begin the checkout process and leave the site. This action would trigger the Cart Abandonment Flow.

Email Capture Pop-Up Integration for Elevar:

To ensure that Elevar enhances the performance of your browse, cart, and checkout abandonment flows, we need to capture the dl_subscribe event when customers submit their email address through the email capture pop-up on your homepage.

  • Native Pop-Up Support: If you are using Klaviyo, Attentive, or Postscript native pop-ups, Elevar supports them out of the box, and no additional action is required.
  • Third-Party Pop-Ups: For pop-ups from platforms like Amped.io, ConvertFlow, Justuno, or any other third-party email capture solutions, you will need to add extra code to the pop-up to ensure compatibility with Elevar’s data layer.

How to Set Up the Cart Abandonment Flow with Elevar

Clone the Existing Flow:

  • Begin by duplicating your existing Klaviyo Cart Abandonment flow.
  • Be sure to rename the flows something to make them identifiable (e.g., Cart Abandonment – Elevar). This keeps your original flows intact while you test and validate the boosted versions.

Add a Flow Filter:

  • To prevent customers from entering multiple flows for the same funnel step, ensure that you review the profile filters for each flow.
  • Once you have accessed a specific flow, locate and click on the "Trigger" box.
  • Navigate to the section of the window titled "Profile Filters" to view and edit the trigger so that it applies to only certain profiles.

Review Elevar Tracking Setup

  • Begin on your Elevar homepage and use the left-hand navigation menu to click on the "My Tracking" tab. Locate the Shopify Source and upgrade to the latest data layer if needed.
  • To ensure dl_subscribe events are captured:
    • Native pop-ups (Klaviyo, Attentive, Postscript) work out-of-the-box.
    • Third-party pop-ups (Amped, ConvertFlow, etc.) need extra setup.
