Can I trigger offers only for certain cart values?

Running a fashion e-commerce store, I've realized not all cart values deserve the same discount strategy. When a customer adds $20 worth of products, offering a massive 20% off doesn't make financial sense. But when someone's cart hits $150, I want a smart way to nudge them towards completing the purchase. My current setup blasts generic discounts everywhere, which feels wasteful. I need a solution that can intelligently trigger offers based on specific cart value thresholds—something that rewards higher-value shoppers while being strategic about when and how discounts are applied. Right now, I'm essentially throwing money away by not having a nuanced, value-based approach to cart recovery and conversion optimization.

TL;DR - Quick Answer

Track cart abandonment by implementing Shopify's built-in abandoned checkout reports (found under Analytics > Reports > Abandoned Checkouts), integrating a third-party analytics tool with add-to-cart and checkout events, and setting up Google Analytics 4 ecommerce tracking with the checkout funnel visualization. The combination gives you both cart and checkout abandonment data with step-level breakdown.
