What's new

AskDolphin connects to your Shopify store so Dolphin AI can add or remove cart items and send a checkout link inside the chat. Your team can also create a checkout, send product cards and see the customer's recent orders beside the conversation. Every action is listed on AskDolphin's Shopify commerce actions.

Why it matters

"I'll take it" is the best line a customer can write, and the worst moment to send them off to find the product again. With the cart and the checkout link inside the conversation, the sale happens where the question was answered. Payment still happens on Shopify's own checkout.

How to use it

Dolphin AI in the chat: open Dolphin AI, then Channels, then Live Chat. Under Allowed actions, switch on what the Sales Assistant may do, such as Add to Cart, Cart Quantity Control, Remove from Cart and Checkout Assistance, next to Smart Recommendations and Product Navigation.

Your team in the inbox: the Shopify block beside each conversation has three tools.

  • Create checkout: search and pick up to 10 product variants, review the items and subtotal, then Send checkout link.
  • Send a product card: choose up to 4 products, add an optional message of up to 500 characters, preview it and send it as one message with picture, price and "View product".
  • Recent orders: the customer's recent Shopify orders, beside the chat.
  • Your team can also edit a customer's order from the inbox.

Good to know

  • "Your customer completes shipping, taxes, and payment on Shopify."
  • Each action has its own switch, and your team can do everything the AI can.
  • Cart and checkout actions need a connected Shopify store and are part of Pro. Product sync and order tracking in the widget are on Free and Pro.
