Quick Answer

A WhatsApp bot helps Bingwa agents by handling predictable conversations: showing current offers, collecting the package and recipient number, guiding payment, and confirming order status. It should always provide a human support route for errors and unusual cases.

Automate the repeated path

Keep each step short and confirm critical details before payment.

  • Welcome and service menu.
  • Current package selection.
  • Recipient and payer detail collection.
  • Payment initiation or instructions.
  • Order status and completion messages.
  • Support escalation.

Design for mistakes and delays

Customers may type an invalid number, choose the wrong package, abandon payment, or ask a question outside the menu. Preserve the conversation state and show the agent what needs intervention.

Keep the catalogue synchronized

The bot should not sell inactive or outdated packages. Review catalogue status and prices whenever the underlying service changes.
