eDesk is the first eCommerce helpdesk software to integrate with Whatsapp Business.
The feature will enable retailers to provide customer support on the messaging platforms their customers use the most.
Wednesday 3 August 2022, DUBLIN, Ireland—eDesk, the eCommerce customer support platform that enables retailers to consolidate customer interactions from every support channel into one, unified inbox, announced today it will directly integrate with WhatsApp Business. This will enable eDesk customers to connect with their customers through the world’s most popular messaging platform, and centralize all conversations within their eDesk dashboard. This is the first time an eCommerce help desk software has integrated with WhatsApp Business.
eDesk, who work with SuperDry, Seinnheiser and Suzuki, is the only customer support solution purpose-built for online retailers. For eCommerce sellers, the integration means they can connect with their customers on the apps they use most. What this means for sellers using WhatsApp Business is that their customers can contact them in a convenient, familiar way, and agents get the ability to prioritize, assign and reply to all their WhatsApp messages from the eDesk mailbox

At a point in time where customer retention has become critical for the survival of online businesses, this integration will enable brands to leverage new channels to engage their customers.” Said Dermot O’Connor, eDesk’s CEO.
Smart brands know that the best way to engage with customers is to go to them, and WhatsApp is where they are.
