Introduction - Save for later

In many online stores—whether B2C, B2B, or wholesale—customers are not always ready to buy right away. Most shoppers like to explore products, compare different options, or plan their purchases for later. This is especially common when buying in bulk, managing budgets, or purchasing for future needs. In these situations, a basic wishlist does not fully support the customer’s buying journey.

That’s where the Save for Later plugin for nopCommerce is useful. This plugin lets customers save products they like for later without adding them to the cart. It helps shoppers keep track of items they may want to buy in the future, while keeping the cart clean and the shopping experience simple and smooth.

The Save for Later plugin introduces a separate section where customers can view and manage products they have saved, without affecting the active shopping cart. Products can be saved directly from the product details page or from the cart and accessed anytime. This allows customers to return later and complete their purchase when they are ready.

To increase customer engagement and conversions, the plugin includes automated reminder emails that encourage customers to return and complete their saved purchases. Store owners can control where the Save for Later features are shown—such as on product pages, the shopping cart, or the homepage. They can also set product limits and manage email schedules based on their business needs.

With its flexible configuration, seamless storefront integration, and conversion-focused features, the Save for Later plugin for nopCommerce helps reduce cart abandonment, improve customer experience, and turn postponed buying decisions into completed orders.
