Step up your customer support by integrating your Shopify store with Freshdesk Contact Center. Developed by Codup.io, this integration brings in information about your customers’ current orders and order history, right where you need them the most: on your Freshdesk Contact Center screen. So, if an existing customer calls you, you can get all the information about the contact’s order history with your company without having to switch tabs and having to search anywhere else. The App fetches information against the contact’s phone number. That means you can fetch all the information right when you receive a call from the customer. If the customer’s phone number is in your records on Shopify store, the app will pull in information about their order history. With this integration installed, you can deliver a top-notch customer service by simply having all the information you need about the contact’s order history with your company. Agents and Administrators can also perform quick actions like cancellations & refunds from the call window directly, eliminating the need for switching between tabs.
