Kiko answers your customers on WhatsApp, your website and Telegram at once, in Malay, English or Chinese, at any hour. It tracks orders, opens a case for a refund or a complaint, and hands the chat to your team when a person is needed.

## How Kiko handles support

- **Answers the questions customers repeat**: Delivery areas, prices, warranty, opening hours and how to order, from your own pages and documents, with the source of each answer.
- **Tracks the order**: Connect your order database and Kiko tells the customer where their parcel is, read-only.
- **Turns problems into cases**: Refunds, wrong items and warranty claims become cases with a reference; Kiko gathers the photos and your team approves the reply.
- **Passes the chat to a person**: When the customer asks for someone, or your knowledge doesn't cover it, the chat moves to your shared inbox with everything said so far.
- **Answers through the night**: Messages after closing get an answer straight away; those that need your team wait under “Needs you” until you're back.

## A sample conversation: A missing parcel in Malay, handed to the team

The customer writes in Malay. Kiko tracks the order and replies in Malay; when the customer wants a refund, the chat goes to the team.

- **Customer**: Barang saya belum sampai lagi. Order RL-3318
- **Kiko**: Order RL-3318 dihantar pada hari Isnin melalui J&T dan dijangka sampai esok.
- **Customer**: Saya nak cancel dan refund
- *Handed to your team*
- **Team**: Hai, saya Aina dari Rumah Linen. Boleh, saya uruskan refund untuk RL-3318 sekarang.

Rumah Linen, Shah Alam is a sample business; the names and prices are made up.

## Support for customers in Malaysia

Malaysian customers message on WhatsApp and expect an answer in their own language, the same evening. Kiko does that for every customer and leaves the tricky ones to your team.

- **Mega sale days**: On 11.11, 12.12 and sale weekends, order questions multiply. Kiko answers them from your order data so your team isn't overwhelmed.
- **Three languages, one team**: Kiko replies in Malay, English or Chinese as the customer writes, so one small team can serve everyone.
- **Raya and festive closures**: Set your hours and closed days, and customers who message while you're away still get an answer and a clear note on when you're back.
- **Photos with the claim**: Customers can send photos of a wrong or damaged item in the chat, and they stay on the case.
