Integration with Sendinblue

In v8.18.0 of Abandoned Cart Pro for WooCommerce plugin, you can now connect our plugin to Sendinblue. This marketing automation tool can help you out with Emails, SMS, and more!

Using the integration, you will be able to customer email addresses and abandoned cart information as well to Sendinblue. Once they’ve been sent, you can send reminder emails and more to these shoppers!

The Basics

To make this integration happen, you will need the following:

  1. WooCommerce plugin
  2. v8.18.0 of Abandoned Cart Pro for WooCommerce plugin
  3. a valid account with Sendinblue. You can log in to your account here.

We will need to grab the API key, Marketing automation key and then create an Abandoned Cart Workflow.

A. Sendinblue Admin settings

Go to your Account > SMTP & API to fetch the API key.

Enter the name you would like to give to this API Key and click on ‘Generate’.

Now, you need to copy this key once it’s generated. Please make sure to copy the key correctly and save it somewhere because Sendinblue does not allow us to copy the key at a later stage.

After clicking on ‘OK’, your newly added Key will be saved and the following message will be displayed:

This client key is the Marketing Automation Key. We will require these two keys later when we go to section B. WordPress Admin Settings. 

B. Creating an Abandoned Cart List
