Offer Real-Time Support During Purchase

Conversations use case - Offer real-time support during purchase - high-level overview

The standard process of customer support in online shopping typically includes calling or emailing a customer service agent which implies longer waiting times, either being on hold until an available agent is able to serve you or waiting for someone to reply to your email.

In this use case, an unregistered user comes to the Shop tab on a website where there is no Live Chat widget visible. When they navigate to the Support tab then they can see the Live Chat widget. Once they click on this tab, a welcome note will await them.

The customer inquires about their loyalty points status and whether there are any discounts available to them. Agent notifies the customer that they first need to log in on the website.
The customer completes this step, and the context of the chat is preserved, followed by the agent providing information about the customer's loyalty points and discounts for their desired product. 
Learn how you can enable this service using Infobip Conversations and make shopping with you a memorable experience for your customers!

This use case will show how context is preserved when your customer changes status from unregistered to registered as well as how they can get immediate support during shopping and quickly resolve any issues.
