Abandonment recovery across six channels for Shopify stores.

Markopolo has pivoted. It was an ad automation and targeting tool; the company has publicly said it stopped competing there and rebuilt as an agent-led customer engagement platform for ecommerce. The core job now is abandonment recovery across browse, cart and checkout, running off Shopify first-party data and dispatching across six channels: email, SMS, push, WhatsApp and AI voice calls, with the channel chosen per shopper rather than blasted across all of them. There is one-to-one personalisation and an agentic workflow builder for designing the sequences. Pricing is genuinely accessible, with a real free tier covering five hundred emails and two hundred and fifty contacts with no card, and paid plans starting under nine dollars a month billed annually.

Our verdict

Priced for the segment most tools in this category ignore, and abandonment recovery is the highest-return automation a small store can run, so getting it going for under nine dollars a month is a reasonable proposition. Choosing the channel per shopper rather than hitting everyone on every channel is a sensible design, and the free tier is a real free tier rather than a trial. Two caveats, one practical and one legal. It is SMB scale with no disclosed funding, no named customers and a small review base, and the recovery rate claims are vendor-stated and unaudited, so test it rather than trusting the numbers. More importantly for UK readers: SMS, WhatsApp and AI voice calls to consumers fall under PECR, which requires consent or the narrow soft opt-in, and the product does not address that for you. Get your consent capture right before switching the voice and SMS channels on, because the exposure sits with you. Note this listing previously described an ad tool; that product no longer exists.

Best for: Small Shopify stores who want abandoned cart and browse recovery across several channels without a Klaviyo-scale subscription.

Pros

  • Genuine free tier with no card, not just a trial
  • Paid plans from under nine dollars a month billed annually
  • Chooses the channel per shopper rather than blasting all six
  • Abandonment recovery across browse, cart and checkout, not just cart
  • Agentic workflow builder for designing sequences
  • Built directly on Shopify first-party data

Cons

  • SMS, WhatsApp and voice calls to UK consumers fall under PECR, and consent is your problem
  • No disclosed funding, named customers or meaningful review base
  • Recovery rate claims are vendor-stated and unaudited
  • Heavy Shopify dependency, so limited use on another platform
  • The company pivoted recently, so the product is newer than the brand
