See every featureCartback brings shoppers back to an abandoned cart with on-site nudges: a tab-title reminder, an exit-intent popup, and a sticky cart bar. It ties each nudge to a real order, so you can see how much revenue it influenced - counted once, within a stated 60-minute window, never claimed as sole credit. It also includes a recovered-revenue dashboard, A/B testing, and targeting.
Resurface shows a cart recovery modal to shoppers who go idle or try to exit your store. When a shopper stops interacting — or moves to leave the page — Resurface quietly surfaces the exact product already in their cart, reminding them what they came for. No discount codes. No email capture forms. Just a clean, on-brand nudge back to checkout, with analytics showing how often shoppers click through.
