Abandoned Orders Feature

We’ve added the Abandoned Orders feature to our OpenCart plugin. What this means is that for any orders that your customers do not complete (Abandon) i.e. Customer gets onto the pay page and then decides to close the browser window thus leaving the transaction in an open status, we would automatically send a request to cancel the order and update the order with a closed status.

More information on the feature can be found here
