Product Cards for BigCommerce

This app is installed by default when you add LiveChat to your BigCommerce store.

Product Cards for BigCommerce app lets you send product recommendations without leaving LiveChat. Allowing you to save time on skipping between chats and product pages in your store. You can search through products, choose one or more items and send them to the customers right on chat.

Each product card consists of an image, description and a button that is linked to a product page in your BigCommerce store.

Send product cards 

To open Product Cards for BigCommerce in LiveChat you need to have at least one ongoing chat.

Here's how to send product cards on chat:

1) Open the app by clicking on the BigCommerce icon. You can find it in the Chats section, at the top of the details bar on the right. Can't see the app? Go to troubleshooting.

2) Choose a store you want to selects products from (if you have only one store connected to LiveChat, you won't see this field).

3) Type the product name in the search bar to narrow down results. 

4) You can also choose a category.

5) Click on the products you want to send (you can select up to 10 at once). If you want to unselect a product click on it again.
