Zipchat®

What is Zipchat®?

Zipchat AI is an intelligent customer service and sales chatbot designed specifically for Shopify stores. It acts as a 24/7 AI agent that handles everything from pre-sale questions to order management, cart recovery, and post-purchase support. The bot works seamlessly across your website, WhatsApp, Instagram, Messenger, and email — all in one place. It’s built to turn every conversation into a sales opportunity while reducing the burden on your human support team. No coding needed, and it learns from your products, policies, and FAQs over time.
