How to Run and Understand a Top Offenders Report

The Top Offenders report helps you identify shoppers who frequently add products to their carts but do not complete their purchases. It tracks cart activity across your webstore, mobile app, and live sales, so you can review patterns such as removed or expired cart items and take action when needed.

Use this report to investigate repeated cart activity, review shopper details, and manage customer access. You can also use it to help identify shoppers who may benefit from the First Paid First Served setting.
