## 1. Why do you need this feature?

We do not want your customers to miss out on an awesome purchase just because they are too busy and forget about it, so enable this **Automated payment reminder** feature and we will automatically send a friendly reminder email to your customers.

This feature would be very useful during the festive season where you might be receiving a lot of orders until you have no time to follow up. So don't think twice, you focus on your sales, we help you to send a reminder! ❤️
