WhatsApp support with LiveAgent

Instead of using your business phone or the WhatsApp web application to handle customer requests, you can simply integrate your WhatsApp with LiveAgent and turn it into an efficient business solution. You can reply to any customer conversations directly from your ticketing system , and provide a great customer experience just like with any other channel.

Integrating your WhatsApp account’s Twilio number with the LiveAgent ticketing system through our social media customer service platform offers a smooth and efficient communication experience. As a result, every incoming WhatsApp message will be seamlessly organized into easy-to-manage tickets within your inbox. By utilizing this integration, you can effectively centralize your communication and keep all customer messages in one place, benefiting from the convenience of our hybrid ticket stream.

WhatsApp integration works well with other ticketing features such as tags, notes, or split tickets. You can even use an automation rule to automate your workflow, and utilize canned messages to send a templated message. WhatsApp limits their business integration only to messages, without call functionality. All replies to messages need to be done within 24 hours. When 24 hours pass, you can only reply to WhatsApp messages with pre approved templates.
