Ava Woofa year agois it a good idea to ask for an email address when adding an item to a cart? Basically that: is it a good idea to ask for an email address when adding an item to a cart? Looking to capture emails so we can use them for abandoned carts. Most of the time we can't contact abandoned carts as we don't have an email yet. However, it seems like it might be a high-drag point if the first time they add an item to the cart it hits them up for their email address.01540
