The customer support page experience

You want to understand exactly what your shoppers go through on the support page.

The support page guides a shopper through three stages and gives them simple ways to wrap up โ€” or resume โ€” a conversation.

The three stages

  1. Contact details โ€” the shopper enters their name, email, and (optionally) phone, depending on how you've set the phone field.
  2. Browse quick answers & topics โ€” they can pick a topic or get an instant quick answer before chatting.
  3. Chat โ€” they talk to the agent, which answers, looks things up, and hands off if needed.

Resuming and closing

  • Resume. A shopper returning with the same email can pick a conversation back up.
  • Three close actions (icon buttons in the chat header): Mark as resolved, Close conversation, and Start a new conversation.

Lock panels

If a conversation reaches its message limit, or a shopper trips a rate limit, the message box is replaced by a lock panel showing your message and your contact channels โ€” so they always have a next step. You control this copy in Settings โ†’ Security Restrictions (see Security Restrictions).
