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

## How Kiko handles support

- **Answers in the customer's language**: Delivery times, returns, warranty and opening hours, from one set of knowledge, in Arabic, English or whatever the customer writes.
- **Tracks the order**: Connect your order database and Kiko tells the customer where their order is, read-only.
- **Turns complaints into cases**: Kiko gathers the order number, the problem and photos, gives a reference, and your team approves the reply.
- **Hands off to the right person**: When the customer asks for someone, the chat goes to your shared inbox, where a colleague who speaks their language can take it.

## A sample conversation: A delivery question in English, handed to the team

A customer asks about a late delivery. Kiko checks the order; when the customer wants to change the address, the chat goes to the team.

- **Customer**: Hi, where is my order GS-88213? It was supposed to come today
- **Kiko**: Order GS-88213 is out for delivery with Aramex and should reach you by 9pm tonight.
- **Customer**: Can I send it to my office in JLT instead?
- *Handed to your team*
- **Team**: Hi, Fatima here. Yes, please share the office address and I'll update the courier.

Gadget Souq, Dubai is a sample business; the names and prices are made up.

## Support for customers in the UAE

UAE customers expect fast, polite answers on WhatsApp in their own language, and a business's team rarely speaks every one of them. Kiko covers every language and every hour.

- **Sale seasons and DSF**: During the Dubai Shopping Festival, White Friday and Ramadan offers, order questions multiply. Kiko answers them from your order data.
- **Ramadan and Eid hours**: Change your hours for Ramadan and add Eid closures; customers who message then still get an answer and know when you're back.
- **Every language, one team**: Kiko answers in the customer's language, and hands off to whoever on your team speaks it when a person is needed.
