For all Ringostat Chat tools to function correctly, the version of Ringostat Smart Phone must be 1.1.9 or higher.

This tool allows you to conveniently communicate with customers online directly on your website, without using messengers or SMS.​

Please note that to handle inquiries from Ringostat Chat, the project must have at least one SIP account connected to Ringostat Smart Phone.

Activating Ringostat Chat

To activate the integration, go to the “App Marketplace” section, find the Ringostat Chat integration, and click “Activate”

Activate the widget and save the changes

General Communication Widget Settings

By default, a simplified communication widget is used, where the website visitor can independently choose a communication channel from those connected in the project.

To activate the extended communication widget, we toggle the switch as shown below and select the priority communication channel:

Available options:

- Online chat

- Callback

- Telegram

- Messenger

- Viber

- Without priority communication channel

Please note that to select messengers as the priority communication channel, integration with them must be connected in the project:

The widget on your website can also automatically greet new visitors. Such notifications motivate visitors to interact and contribute to making purchase decisions.

To do this, we activate "Automatic greeting" and select the time after which the greeting should open after the user enters the site:

For convenience, during configuration, an example of the widget's appearance on the site is displayed on the side. This way, immediately upon making changes, you can see how the widget will look on your site, both in mobile and desktop versions.

Also, in addition to the widget, examples are available:

- client templates for starting a dialogue

- client dialogue list

- active dialogue
