Re-targeting · Bring them back

The People Who Looked, and Then Went Quiet

Turn website behaviour into a WhatsApp follow-up — carts left behind, pages viewed twice, purchases not repeated.

Short answer

WhatEdge re-targeting triggers a WhatsApp message based on what somebody did on your website or in their purchase history: abandoning a cart, viewing a product repeatedly, or going quiet after buying. It reaches people who have already shown interest, which is why it works far better than a cold broadcast.

The problem

Interest is not the problem. Silence after interest is

Somebody filled a cart and left. Somebody read the same product page three times. Somebody bought once and never came back. Every one of them told you something, and none of it reaches anybody who could act on it — so the most likely buyers on your list are the ones you never message.

Re-targeting only works when the people you reach have agreed to hear from you. It does not change the rules — messaging a list that never opted in is still the fastest way to lose a WhatsApp number, and we will say so if a re-targeting list looks like it will damage your quality rating.
What you can do with it

Common uses

These are the setups customers actually ask for. If yours is not here, it is probably still possible — ask.

01
Abandoned cart recovery

The cart contents and a reason to come back, sent while the intent is still fresh.

02
Post-purchase follow-up

Delivery updates, a feedback request, and related products, timed to the delivery rather than the order.

03
Browse abandonment

Somebody looked closely and did not buy. That is worth a message; a broadcast to everyone is not.

04
Win-back campaigns

Dormant customers, approached with something specific rather than a general offer.

05
Repeat-purchase timing

Timed to how long the product actually lasts, rather than to a calendar.

06
Lead nurturing from site behaviour

What somebody read tells you what they care about. The follow-up can say so.

Setup

How it gets built

Configured with you during setup, on the plan you are already on.

  1. We install the tracking. A small script on your website, set up by our team as part of onboarding. Included on every plan.
  2. Define the audiences. Which behaviours matter to your business, and which are just noise.
  3. Set the triggers. A website action, a purchase event, or a delay after either.
  4. Write the messages. Personalised, with dynamic product content where it helps.
  5. Measure and tighten. Engagement and conversion per campaign, so the weak triggers get cut.

FAQ

Questions about this

We do, as part of onboarding, on every plan — it is a small script on your website. From then on, behaviour on your site can trigger a WhatsApp follow-up: an abandoned cart, a product viewed repeatedly, or a customer who has not returned. It still only applies to people who have opted in to hear from you.

Your quality rating drops, and if it keeps dropping Meta restricts your number. This is the single most important thing to protect. We monitor your rating, warn you when a campaign is heading the wrong way, and honour opt-outs automatically so people who have asked to stop hearing from you are excluded from every future campaign.

Yes — on the official API, using approved templates, to people who have agreed to hear from you. What gets numbers banned is unofficial panels that automate the regular WhatsApp app, and messaging bought lists. We only operate on the official API, and we will tell you if a campaign looks likely to damage your quality rating.
