Turn walk-in customers into people you can message

Collect opt-in at the counter with a QR code, send offers to customers who want them, answer store questions with a chatbot and handle orders and complaints from one inbox.

A customer list built at the till

Print a QR code or click-to-chat link on receipts, shelf cards and the shop window. When a customer scans it, WhatsApp opens with a pre-filled message, and a chatbot asks whether they want to hear about offers. Their opt-in is recorded on the contact.

Offers to the right customers

Tag customers by store, interest or how they joined, and send a Marketing template with a product image to just that segment. Schedule it for the morning of the sale, and see sent, delivered, read, replied and failed for each campaign.

  • New stock arrivals to customers who asked about a category
  • Store opening news to customers near a new branch
  • Festive offers to everyone who opted in

Store questions answered by a chatbot

Opening hours, branch locations, whether an item is in stock, delivery areas: a chatbot answers with menus, and an API request step can check stock in your own system. Anything else moves to a person.

Orders and complaints in one inbox

Staff at each branch can answer on one number from the shared inbox, or on the Android app from the shop floor. Chats are assigned and transferred so nobody answers the same customer twice.

Questions people ask

Can we add customers' numbers we already have?

You can import contacts from a CSV with their opt-in status. Only message people who agreed to hear from you on WhatsApp.

How do we avoid being blocked by customers?

Send to segments that want the offer, not to everyone every week. Blocks and reports lower your number's quality rating and can limit how many people you reach.

Can we send promotions by SMS too?

Yes, in Zambia and Tanzania, from your own sender ID approved for promotional messages.

Is there a monthly fee?

No. You top up a wallet and pay per message, priced by country and category.
