Key Features of Cart Reservation Extension for Magento
Magento Cart Reservation Extension allows customers to temporarily reserve products they have added to their cart. When a customer adds an item to his cart, it is reserved for "x" amount of minutes before they become available again to other customers. So, the customer has the opportunity to purchase these products first. The Magento cart countdown and stock alert message used within this Magento Cart Timer module are a great way to monitor stock availability.
Temporary Reserve Products in Shopping Carts
- When a product is added to a cart, the client will see a timer notifying them that the reservation has started and will expire soon.
- Reserved products are not available for other clients and guaranteed to be sold to the clients who added them to shopping carts.
Display Timer and Reservation Notification on Product Pages
- Cart Reservation notifications can be displayed on product pages too. Let other customers know when the product will become available at your store again.
- All messages can be translated, modified and styled as per your Magento store design.
Mark Reserved Products on Category Page
Global or Independent Cart Reservation Timers are Available
- Admin can configure the extension to display one “global timer” for a whole shopping cart. When a user adds a new product to a cart – the timer will reset and start the reservation from the beginning.
- It is also possible to use a “countdown timer for each product separately”. This way each product in the shopping cart will have its own reservation timer running independently from other timers.
Magento Checkout Page Timer
- Give your customers enough time to checkout. The extension allows you to specify how much time the user can spend on the checkout page before the products become unreserved.
Popup and Email Reminders
- Display Popup timer reminder or send email reminders to your customers.
- Remind your clients to checkout before the time is out and the products become unreserved (or removed) from their shopping carts.
"Cash on Delivery" Offline Reservation
- If you are using offline payment methods, such as cash on delivery, then our “reservation after checkout” feature will let you reserve the product until the payment is made or otherwise return it automatically back in stock.
Overview of Cart Reservation Extension for Magento
Magento cart timer allows the site owner to create urgency without pressure. Items in your customer shopping cart will expire after a certain amount of minutes. This makes your customers want to hurry and buy before someone else does. Events and products can sell out quickly so clients must keep an eye on the countdown clock in their cart in order to secure the picks. If an item they want is in another member's cart, they can refresh the browser or check back on the item throughout the duration of the event to see if it has become available.
There are two types of cart reservation timers available: the countdown timer for each product separately or reservation of all products in the cart. The extension allows you to set the general time of reservation including both cart reservation and checkout reservation providing more time for the purchase to be completed which leads to higher sales conversion rates and higher customer satisfaction. Lastly the website owner has two options for products after the reservation time expires - to delete the products from the cart or to leave them in the cart unreserved.
