Win-back automation is a feature that helps businesses reconnect with customers who haven't made a purchase recently. It sends personalized messages to encourage them to come back and buy, possibly including special offers or discounts.
By identifying inactive customers and sending them customized messages, businesses can reignite their interest, remind them of positive experiences, and motivate them to make a new purchase.
Before running a win-back automation, you must:
Install your preferred e-commerce app from the BusinessChat App Store.
Set up a WhatsApp template specifically designed for win-back usage.

Configure the trigger
Set up the number of days you want to wait before re-engaging with your customers. This specifies how many days have passed since the customer placed their latest order.
Trigger filters
You can use trigger filters, such as the customer's last order amount, to target the right people with your messages. This lets you create multiple automations with different coupons and filters, sending the most relevant content to different customer groups. See Triggers & filters.
Send Message Template
The automation can be up to three steps; the first step is an immediate template message, while the second and third optional steps contain Delay & Template Message.
Delay: the time your customers will delay before receiving the template.
Template Message: the message will be sent to the customers when the delay ends.
Click Setup, choose one of the delay options, then select a template message.
💡 Tip
You only need to set up the first-step card. The additional steps are optional for further customization across the customer journey inside this automation.
