Most recovery plugins inflate “abandoned carts” with bots and fake add-to-cart calls — then take credit for sales you’d have made anyway. Cartright counts only real abandons and reconciles recovered revenue against actually-paid orders. Send through your own mailbox. Pay once.
The real Cartright dashboard — recovered revenue reconciled to actual paid orders, and every filtered-out cart with the exact reason it wasn’t counted.
Store owners don’t distrust cart recovery — they distrust the reporting. In their own words, from public reviews:
Session-based tracking with a bot / direct-API / headless filter. Fake add-to-cart calls never enter your funnel — so an “abandoned cart” means a real shopper who left.
Recovered revenue is reconciled in real time against actually-completed paid orders, deduplicated, with an audit trail. The number you see is the money you actually made.
Recovery emails send through your own SMTP/SES — no per-email fee, no third-party sending, your customer data never leaves your server. Pay once, no monthly SaaS.
No cloud account, no sending infrastructure to configure — it runs on your store.
Tracking starts immediately and accurate by default — bots, direct-API and headless add-to-cart calls are filtered from day one, so your numbers are clean from the first cart.
Configure the reminder cascade — subject and body per step, with {recovery_link} / {site_name} placeholders — sent through your own mailbox. Free sends 1 reminder; Pro runs the full 3-step sequence.
The dashboard shows recovered revenue matched to real paid orders, plus a transparent “why this cart was filtered” bucket — so you always know what’s counted and what isn’t.

No. Cartright only counts real, session-verified human abandons. Bot traffic, direct-API add-to-cart calls and headless requests are filtered out — so your abandoned-cart numbers reflect actual shoppers, not inflated noise.
