Receive conversations from customers
to start receiving conversations from customers, you need to toggle off Watching mode.
You can see all previous conversations between the customer and other agents (1), as well as customer information on the left side (2), such as their name, mobile number, language, and conversation start date.
Below the information box, you can block (3) the customer from communicating with you and search for specific words within the conversation (4).

Close conversation
When the conversation with the customer is finished, you must close the conversation using the button at the top of the page.
If the conversation is not closed, it will affect the average conversation completion time report, and the marketing team will not be able to send any campaigns to a customer with an open conversation.
Very important
Businesses are allowed to respond to conversations initiated by the customer only within 24 hours from the time of the first message sent by the customer.
There is no limit to the number of messages you can send to reply to the customer during the 24-hour window.
After the 24-hour period, you will need to send a template message, and this will incur additional costs for your company.
Mobile Application
The Business Chat platform mobile app allows you to respond to customers on the go.
You can download BusinessChat mobile application from iOS and Android app stores.
You need to have an account on the BusinessChat platform to log in and use the application
