Title: Benchmark Email for WooCommerce Author: Sean Conklin Published: September 24, 2018 Last modified: November 29, 2025 --- Search plugins ![](https://ps.w.org/woo-benchmark-email/assets/icon-256x256.png?rev=2863857) # Benchmark Email for WooCommerce By [Sean Conklin](https://profiles.wordpress.org/seanconklin/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/woo-benchmark-email.1.6.4.zip) * [Details](https://twd.wordpress.org/plugins/woo-benchmark-email/#description) * [Reviews](https://twd.wordpress.org/plugins/woo-benchmark-email/#reviews) * [Installation](https://twd.wordpress.org/plugins/woo-benchmark-email/#installation) * [Development](https://twd.wordpress.org/plugins/woo-benchmark-email/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/woo-benchmark-email/) ## Description Feature: Connect to Benchmark Email ReST API * Separate from optional Benchmark Email Lite plugin, this setting connects to one API key for WooCommerce specific communications. * Settings located in WP Admin > WooCommerce > Settings > Advanced > Benchmark Email Feature: Customer carts to Woo Abandoned Carts list * Any time somebody clicks to go to the checkout page their email address, name, and cart details get sent to the Woo Abandoned Carts contact list. * They may be logged in and this field might be pre-populated, still works. * They may be making a purchase as a Guest and the field gets caught as typed. * They may be authenticated yet not have Woo history, so they type the email in. * There is a 2 second delay to ensure they are done typing the email before it sends. * The email is validates as a properly formatted email before it gets sent to Benchmark. * Use Automation Pro to manage the templates, timing of emails, and eventual deletion from list since subscription to this list is for short-term usage only. * A URL and order data are included, so Automation Pro can manage the workflow. * Benchmark is to provide the prebuilt Automation Pro template for our users. Feature: Customer orders to Woo Customers list * Also gets them removed from the Woo Abandoned Carts contact list since they have purchased. * They get added to the Woo Customers list only if they select the checkbox. * They get added to the Woo Customers list if there is no checkbox to select (if label disabled in settings). Feature: Sync all order history to Woo Customers list * Copies all historic orders, whether Guest or Registered customers to Woo Customers list. * Uses AJAX to prevent timeouts, but may run for some time on larger stores. ### Support [Sign Up](http://www.benchmarkemail.com/Register) for your free Benchmark Email account.
