Send customers a reorder link X days after ordering

by Isaac Bowen (team@usemechanic.com)

Use this task to make repeat business easy. Set the number of days to wait, then let this task automatically email your customers a one-click reorder link X days after their purchase, sending them straight to checkout with their entire cart pre-filled.

Runs 30 days after an order is paid. Configuration includes order referral code, email subject, email body, and days to wait.
