Descriptif

Bring distracted shoppers back to your site at the exact moment their attention drifts. This lightweight tactic listens for tab changes on high-intent pages like cart and dynamically flashes a short, contextual message. Defined users see a friendly reminder tied to their session, while anonymous users receive a subtle nudge that sparks curiosity. With minimal setup, you increase session depth, reduce abandonment, and lift conversions without adding friction.

Scénario utilisateur détaillé

When a visitor lands on a target page that includes “cart,” the system initializes a pixel-based script to detect tab visibility changes. If the user switches to another tab, the browser tab title alternates to display a short message; defined users see “👋 Still thinking about your cart?” while anonymous users see “🛒 Psst… your cart misses you!”. The message is delivered via the Send code action with Append to HTML set to false and custom handling in the User.com widget. Global variable code_pixel hosts the script, and the automation controls when and where the flashing message triggers.

Étape par étape

  • 1
    Target page detection: On pageview, the automation checks URL context for “cart” and confirms the visitor’s state using the email attribute to determine whether the user is defined or anonymous
  • 2
    Script injection via Send code: The module “Send code” loads the global variable code_pixel with Append to HTML = false, removing any IMG elements and using a custom handler in the User.com widget (including an optional onPayloadReceived in civchat)
  • 3
    Tab visibility listener: The script listens for visibilitychange; when the user switches away, it alternates the document.title to a short, attention-grabbing message
  • 4
    Personalized message variant: Defined users see “👋 Still thinking about your cart?” while anonymous users see “🛒 Psst… your cart misses you!”, ensuring relevant tone without exposing personal data
  • 5
    Graceful restore and controls: When the tab becomes active again, the original title is restored, and the flashing stops; frequency caps and page-level rules prevent overexposure
