The WooCommerce emails in your inbox

Each email becomes a conversation in Aide Helpdesk. Aide answers what the order can answer and hands your team the rest.

Aide reads the order's status in WooCommerce and replies in the customer's Gmail thread, so nobody has to look the order up first.
Customer
I ordered the ceramic planter last Tuesday. Order #1184. Is it on its way?
Aide
Thanks for your patience. Order #1184 is marked Completed in our store, which means it has left us. If it hasn't arrived by Friday, reply here and we'll look into it.
✓Order status read from WooCommerce · Reply sent from your Gmail address

Aide doesn't refund WooCommerce orders. It tells the customer what happens next and hands the conversation to your team with a summary and a draft.
Customer
The planter from order #1184 is the wrong shade. I'd like a refund please.
Aide
Summary for the team: the customer wants a refund on order #1184, Completed, because the planter is the wrong shade. Draft reply below.
✓Order read from WooCommerce · Handed to Needs a person

Aide answers from your WooCommerce products and your own knowledge, so pre-sale questions get a reply in the thread instead of waiting for a teammate.
Customer
Does the large planter have a drainage hole? I want it for a fig tree.
Aide
Yes. The large ceramic planter has a drainage hole and comes with a matching saucer, so it works well for a fig tree indoors.
✓Product details read from WooCommerce · Reply sent from your Gmail address

When the order number is missing, Aide asks for it before handing over, one question at a time, so your team starts with the order.
Customer
Hi, I need to change the address on my order.
Aide
Happy to help. What's your order number? Once I have it, I'll pass your new address to our team with the order.
