Click-to-Call & Click-to-Email Handover
With just one tap, users can dial your support line or draft an email directly from the chat.
Enable your chatbot to soft-handover conversations to a live agent via phone or email, without requiring a full CRM integration. End users simply tap a button in-chat to launch their device’s dialer or mail app.
Why Use Click-to-Call & Click-to-Email?
Sometimes a question needs a personal touch: a refund, a complex troubleshooting step, or simply reassurance. Rather than building a full live-chat or CRM handoff, you can offer two simple buttons:
- Call Support opens the phone dialer
- Email Support launches the mail app
This “soft handover” keeps users in context and on your site, while giving them the direct help they need.
