Warning
Second Chance is now part of the Buckaroo Magento 2 plugin. This separate module is no longer needed and is no longer developed. Do not install buckaroo/magento2secondchance in a new project — install the Buckaroo Magento 2 plugin, which includes Second Chance out of the box.
Second Chance follows up unpaid orders with one or two reminder e-mails, which recovers orders that would otherwise be lost and raises your conversion rate. The e-mails are fully white-labelled, so they go out in your own corporate identity.
The functionality used to live in this repository as a separate module. It has since been merged into the main Buckaroo Magento 2 plugin, which now declares replaces: buckaroo/magento2secondchance in its composer.json.
This repository is kept online for reference and for merchants who are still on an older setup.
If you currently have the separate module installed, remove it and make sure you are on a plugin version that includes Second Chance. Run the following from your Magento 2 root folder:
composer remove buckaroo/magento2secondchance
composer update buckaroo/magento2
php bin/magento setup:upgrade
php bin/magento setup:di:compile
php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy
php bin/magento cache:flushImportant
Test this on a staging environment first and check your Second Chance settings and e-mail templates afterwards. Verify that reminder e-mails still go out as expected before you rely on it in production.
Second Chance is configured in the main plugin, under Stores → Configuration → Sales → Buckaroo in the Magento admin. The available settings are:
- Switch the first and second reminder e-mail on or off.
- Choose the e-mail template for each reminder.
- Set the timing for each reminder.
- Choose whether to send a reminder when the product is out of stock.
