Recover abandoned carts — even when emails are opened on another device
CrossCart Sync® is a lightweight WooCommerce plugin that restores abandoned carts across devices, browsers, and sessions using
database-level cart persistence — not fragile cookies.
Forward the email.
Open it anywhere.
The cart still restores.

What problem does CrossCart Sync solve?
Abandoned cart recovery often breaks when a customer changes device or browser. A common journey is mobile browsing, then desktop checkout.
Many recovery plugins rely on cookies or short-lived sessions, so the cart can’t be rebuilt reliably when the email is opened elsewhere.
- Email opened on a different device → cart is empty
- Cookies cleared or blocked → cart can’t be restored
- Email forwarded → link doesn’t recover the original cart
- Session expired → recovery fails silently
CrossCart Sync is built specifically to fix this failure mode.
How CrossCart Sync is different
Cross-Device Cart Restore™ by CrossCart Sync®
Instead of relying on cookies, CrossCart Sync securely stores cart data in the database and generates a restore link tied to the cart (not the device).
When the link is opened, the cart is rebuilt — even on a different device, in another browser, or when the email is forwarded.
Why this matters
- Higher recovery reliability for mobile → desktop journeys
- Fewer “your recovery link didn’t work” support tickets
- More consistent recovery results across browsers and privacy settings
Key benefits
- ✅ Cross-device abandoned cart recovery (works across browsers & sessions)

Email sending and deliverability
CrossCart Sync sends emails using your existing WordPress configuration. For best deliverability, configuring SMTP on your site is recommended (optional),
especially if your host restricts outbound email.
