uptain – Shopware Plugin of the Month

Shopware – one of the world’s leading manufacturers of online shop software, selects the best online shop plugins, which are awarded weekly and monthly in the Shopware Store. We are very pleased to have now received 3 awards in a row:

Shopware Plugin Of The Week August 2020

Shopware Plugin Of The Month March 2021

Shopware Plugin Of The Week May 2021

It is a small award with all the more joy, which we share with our partners and partner agencies. But the thanks for this go above all to our more than 400 long-standing customers who rely on us as the leading software for the intelligent recovery of shopping cart abandonment in e-commerce.

Following the Steps of Big Players in E-Commerce

Every company has two goals: on the one hand, to win over as many new customers as possible and, on the other hand, to continue to increase their value as existing customers. In this respect, small and medium-sized online retailers are no different from established online shops.

We firmly believe that not only established big players should benefit from modern e-commerce technology. That is why we develop our software for all shop systems equally: in addition to Shopware, we also offer our conversion software for Shopify, Magento, Oxid eSales, WooCommerce and many other providers.

Do Not Worry About Cart Abandonment Again

Shopping cart abandonments are omnipresent in every online shop, because about 70% of all filled shopping carts are left without successfully completing the purchase for various reasons. This applies equally to new and existing customers, although no two customers are alike. Thanks to anonymised data points from hundreds of online shops, our software precisely records the reason for purchase abandonment and plays out the right message in real time at the right moment without negatively influencing the shopping experience. Best of all, you only pay a small commission on the actual shopping baskets recovered if we are successful.

Exit Intent Popups

With the Exit Intent Popups, you automatically help your customers to complete the shopping process. Shortly before the customer leaves the website, a personalised Exit Intent Popup appears, which responds individually to the purchase abandonment.

Abandoned Cart Mails

With the abandonment emails, you automatically send personalised, 100% GDPR-compliant shopping cart reminders to customers who were unable to successfully complete the purchase – even without vouchers!

Newsletter Popups

Every business starts with a contact. Celebrate with us our award as Shopware Plugin of the Month March 2021 and convert your undecided but interested visitors unobtrusively into new email subscribers: For 1 EUR per potential new customer with our newsletter popups.

uptain is an easy-to-use conversion optimisation tool. It supports your online shop in effectively winning new customers and sustainably increasing the value of your existing customers.

Frequently asked questions about uptain Shopware

What does a conversion optimisation plugin do in an online shop?

A conversion optimisation plugin addresses visitors who would otherwise leave without buying. uptain combines three interlocked elements: exit-intent popups that react to the individual reason for abandonment shortly before someone leaves, abandoned cart emails that send personalised, GDPR-compliant reminders, and newsletter popups that turn interested but undecided visitors into subscribers via double opt-in.

What is the Shopware Plugin of the Month award?

Shopware, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of online shop software, selects the best online shop plugins in the Shopware Store and awards them weekly and monthly. uptain has received three of these awards in a row: Plugin of the Week in August 2020, Plugin of the Month in March 2021 and Plugin of the Week in May 2021. More than 400 long-standing customers rely on the software.

Which advantages does a plug-and-play conversion tool offer online shops?

Fast integration is the main advantage: setting up uptain usually takes about 30 minutes and requires no IT or design knowledge. Segments and rules can be defined by shopping cart value, URLs and UTM parameters, customer groups or language. Tried and tested templates remove the need for campaign creation, service and advice are included free of charge, and payment is success-based on net additional sales.

How can online shops reduce shopping cart abandonment?

About 70% of all filled shopping carts are left without a completed purchase, so the first step is understanding why. Software that evaluates anonymised data points from hundreds of shops can identify the individual reason for abandonment and play out a matching message in real time, for example an exit-intent popup shortly before the visitor leaves or a personalised abandoned cart email afterwards.

Which shop systems can cart abandonment software be integrated into?

Cart abandonment recovery is not limited to one platform. uptain is developed for all leading shop systems equally, including Shopware, Shopify, Magento, Oxid eSales and WooCommerce. If no ready-made plugin exists for your setup, the software can also be integrated via JavaScript or a tag manager such as Google Tag Manager, which keeps the effort low for any shop.

Can small online shops use the same conversion technology as large retailers?

Yes. Every company pursues the same two goals: winning as many new customers as possible and increasing the value of existing ones. Small and medium-sized retailers are no different from established shops in this respect, and modern e-commerce technology should not be reserved for big players. That is why conversion software is developed for all shop systems equally, not just for enterprise platforms.

Which settings can online shops control in a conversion tool?

Playout can be steered along several dimensions: shopping cart value with minimum order values or incremental discounts, page tracking for product, category or checkout pages, fixed or dynamic voucher lists, and service offers instead of discounts. UTM parameters and referrer rules include or exclude specific traffic, customer groups can be treated differently, and user blocking limits how often a single visitor sees a message.
