Email reminders
The purpose of an email reminder is to encourage people who have visited your store to take advantage of a promotion and make a purchase. Email reminders can be automatically sent to customers when a specific set of conditions is met. For example, you might send a reminder to customers who have added something to their cart or wishlist, but have not yet made a purchase. You can use email reminders to encourage customers to return to your store, and include a coupon code as an incentive. Coupon codes can be automatically generated for each batch of email reminders, to give you control over the offers that are associated with each batch.
Email reminders can be triggered after a specific number of days have passed since a cart was abandoned or for any other condition you want to define. Common conditions include total cart value, quantity, items in cart, and so on.

Email reminder templates
The default email reminder template can be customized, and additional templates created for different promotions. Email reminders have a selection of specific variables that can be incorporated into the message. The information in these variables is determined by the email reminder rule that you set up, and by the cart price rule that is associated with the coupon. The Insert Variable button can be used to insert the markup tag with the variable into the template. To learn more, see Email.
