Retail and e-commerce
Stores, online shops and support teams handle a constant stream of order and product questions. GT Connect gives staff instant internal calls and gives customers a website chat your whole team can answer.
Where is my order #4471?
Thanks! I have passed order #4471 to our team. Would you like a call back?
Hi! Your order left our store this morning and arrives tomorrow.
Challenges
Support spends the day reading out order updates.
Stock and promotion updates reach stores late.
Festive-season volumes double the questions without doubling the team.
Website chats with order numbers land in one inbox. The AI reply collects the number first, and any free agent picks up the chat.

Not yet. A public business number with an auto-attendant is on the roadmap and needs a licensed phone-number provider. Today, customers can reach you through website chat (beta), and your team uses GT Connect to call each other.
