WordPress Push Notifications, WooCommerce Automation & Chat Widget Made Easy

PushEngage is the most powerful and beginner-friendly push notification, WooCommerce automation, and chat widget plugin for WordPress. Send browser notifications to re-engage visitors, recover abandoned WooCommerce carts with push notifications and WhatsApp automation on autopilot, and connect with customers through a multichannel click to chat widget — all from one plugin.

Browser Notifications for Every Platform

PushEngage delivers browser notifications across all major platforms — Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, Opera, Brave, Samsung Internet, and UC Browser. Your subscribers receive native browser notifications on both desktop and mobile devices, even when they’re not actively browsing your website.

Unlike email that gets buried in inboxes or social media posts that get lost in feeds, browser notifications appear as real-time OS-level alerts that demand attention. With PushEngage, you get:

Instant browser notification delivery — messages arrive in seconds, not hours
No app install required — subscribers opt in directly from their browser
No email address needed — lower friction means higher opt-in rates
Cross-device reach — one subscriber, browser notifications on every browser they use
Smart delivery optimization — send browser notifications at each subscriber’s optimal engagement time

WooCommerce Automation & Cart Abandonment Recovery

PushEngage is one of the most-installed WooCommerce automation plugins on WordPress.org and the #1 push notification plugin for WooCommerce. The full WooCommerce automation suite covers every step of the shopper journey — from first product view through cart abandonment recovery to post-purchase order updates. Five WooCommerce push notifications workflows ship pre-built:

Cart Abandonment Recovery — 3-step WooCommerce automation sequence (45 min / 4 hr / 24 hr) that recovers up to 14% of abandoned WooCommerce carts
Browse Abandonment — WooCommerce automation for visitors who viewed products but didn’t add to cart
Price Drop Alerts — WooCommerce automation that notifies subscribers when products they browsed drop in price
Back-in-Stock Alerts — WooCommerce automation that fires when inventory is replenished
Order Update Notifications — WooCommerce automation for order confirmation, shipping updates, payment retry, and COD confirmation

Pair WooCommerce push notifications with WhatsApp automation for a two-channel cart abandonment recovery sequence — both channels fire automatically from the same WooCommerce automation event. Every WooCommerce automation runs through native WooCommerce hooks and supports dynamic product placeholders (name, price, image, URL) auto-populated from your WooCommerce catalog. Setup takes under 2 minutes — connect your PushEngage account, enable WooCommerce automation from the Triggers menu, and PushEngage starts recovering revenue automatically.

AI-Ready WordPress Plugin via Abilities API (NEW in 4.2.2)

PushEngage 4.2.2 ships with built-in support for the WordPress Abilities API — the new framework introduced for AI assistants and MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers to safely interact with WordPress plugins. AI agents on your site can now read PushEngage data and take actions on your behalf, all through a permission-checked, schema-validated interface.

PushEngage registers 25 abilities under the pushengage category, grouped into eight domains:

Plugin info — Get plugin version, connection state, and key configuration; pull WordPress, PHP, and server diagnostics
Notifications — Send push notifications, fetch a single notification, and list notifications with status and pagination filters
Segments & audience groups — List, create, and add subscribers to segments; list audience groups for targeting
Analytics — Get notifications summary across send/view/click counts, run analytics overviews by date range, and pull subscriber analytics
Auto-push settings — Read and update auto-push configuration, including post types and feature flags
Categories & attribute mappings — List WordPress and WooCommerce categories, view category-to-segment mappings, and inspect subscriber attribute mappings
WooCommerce push automations — List and update push automation campaigns, plus list WhatsApp automation campaigns when WooCommerce is active
WhatsApp & debug — Check WhatsApp integration status and pull debug logs for troubleshooting

Every ability is admin-gated through the manage_options capability, follows safe readonly and idempotent annotations, and exposes a public MCP-compatible interface so your AI tooling can plan and execute multi-step push notification workflows without custom integration work.

Drag & Drop Popup Builder

PushEngage comes with a visual popup builder that lets you create beautiful subscription opt-in popups in minutes. Choose from multiple popup styles — floating bar, modal overlay, bell widget, full-screen overlay, and more. Customize colors, text, timing, and targeting rules without touching any code.

Our pre-built popup templates are designed to maximize opt-in rates. PushEngage users consistently see 6-10% opt-in rates compared to the 3-5% industry average.

Product categories — auto-segment WooCommerce shoppers by browsing behavior
Geographic location — target by country, state, or city
Device type — send to desktop, mobile, or both
Engagement behavior — target active vs. inactive subscribers

Create and send push notification campaigns directly from the WordPress post editor. PushEngage auto-fetches your post title, excerpt, and featured image — just hit publish and your subscribers are notified instantly. No need to switch between dashboards.

Advanced Analytics & A/B Testing

Campaign performance — views, clicks, CTR, and revenue per notification
Subscriber growth — track opt-in rates and subscriber trends over time

Multichannel Chat Widget — Click to Chat for WordPress

Add a floating click to chat widget to your WordPress site and connect with visitors through 20+ messaging channels from a single button. The PushEngage chat widget makes it easy for visitors to reach you on their preferred platform:

WhatsApp
Facebook Messenger
Instagram DM
SMS & Phone
Email
Telegram, Line, Viber
Slack & Microsoft Teams
Discord
Google Maps & Waze
X (Twitter), TikTok, Snapchat, LinkedIn
Custom channels

Configure multi-agent routing, working-hour availability, and device-based targeting — all from your WordPress dashboard. Show different click to chat channels on mobile vs. desktop, customize colors and position to match your brand, and display or hide the chat widget on specific pages, posts, or categories. The chat widget is included with PushEngage at no extra charge — no separate plugin needed.

Click to Chat for WhatsApp & Messaging Apps

Add a WhatsApp click to chat button to your WordPress site in minutes. Set a pre-filled message so visitors arrive at your WhatsApp chat with context already typed. The same click to chat flow works for Facebook Messenger, Telegram, Instagram DM, SMS, and the rest of the channels in the multichannel chat widget — perfect for support, sales, and lead generation.

Configure click to chat targeting per channel: show the WhatsApp click to chat button on mobile, the email click to chat option on desktop, and hide both on checkout pages where the focus belongs on the WooCommerce cart. Every channel uses native deep links, so visitors arrive in the messaging app they already have installed — no redirects, no friction.

WhatsApp Notifications & Automation

Automate your WhatsApp messaging and cart recovery directly from WordPress — no separate WhatsApp Business API setup needed. Go beyond push notifications with WhatsApp Business API integration:

Abandoned cart recovery via WhatsApp
Order updates and shipping alerts
Payment retry requests
COD confirmation messages
Review request automation
Free click-to-chat widget

Send unlimited WhatsApp messages at a flat platform fee — no per-message SMS charges.
