# Cart Reminder

> **Suggested readings**: [Use cases for cart reminder app push](https://academy.insiderone.com/docs/use-cases-for-cart-reminder-app-push), [FAQ about cart reminder app push](https://academy.insiderone.com/docs/cart-reminder-faq)

The Cart Reminder feature helps you re-engage users who abandon their shopping carts without completing a purchase. By triggering rich or [carousel](https://academy.insiderone.com/docs/carousel-app-push) push notifications, you can remind users about items left in their cart, encouraging them to complete their purchase.

Abandoned carts pose a significant challenge for e-commerce. The Cart Reminder push helps tackle this issue by sending targeted notifications to remind users of their unpurchased items. A cart reminder push is similar to a conversion push, triggered when a user adds items to their cart but ends the session without completing a purchase.

To activate Cart Reminder notifications, you need to integrate the following actions in your app at specific user actions. This method requires three [Cart Events](/docs/ios-default-mobile-events#cart-events):

- [Item Added to Cart](/docs/ios-default-mobile-events#item-added-to-cart): Triggered whenever a user adds an item to their cart
- [Item Removed from Cart](/docs/ios-default-mobile-events#item-removed-from-cart): Triggered whenever a user removes an item from their cart
- [Cart Cleared](/docs/ios-default-mobile-events#cart-cleared): Triggered whenever a user removes all items or the last item from their cart

## Requirements to use Cart Reminder Push

To implement Cart Reminder, ensure the following:

- **SDK integration**: Integrate Insider’s SDK version 7.1 or higher.
- **Push notification setup**: Enable Carousel/Slider Push Notifications for iOS.
- **Revenue tracking:** Integrate Insider’s Revenue Tracking Method.
- **Cart reminder method:** Integrate the Cart Reminder Method within your app.
- **Product information**: Use designated methods to pass data (such as item name, ID, price, currency, and image) to Insider for SDK version 7.1 and above.

## Types of cart reminder notifications

- **One or two Items:** Users will receive a standard rich notification, displaying the last item added to the cart in a slider-like format without navigation arrows.
- **Three or more Items**: Users will receive a carousel notification, displaying up to 6 items (starting with the last 6 added items) in a slider with navigation arrows.
