About CartFlows
CartFlows iterates steadily on WooCommerce funnel conversion and cart recovery
CartFlows is a WooCommerce sales-funnel and checkout builder in a stable, incremental release rhythm across its free and Pro tiers plus its Cart Abandonment Recovery companion. Recent work centers on conversion optimization — A/B testing for order bumps, cleaner analytics and reporting, and new cart-recovery touchpoints — rather than any structural change.
