Rakuten Viber Click to Chat
Every customer interaction is an opportunity. Rakuten Viber Click to Chat makes it effortless for customers to reach you, helping you build deeper connections and drive business growth — turning website visitors into buyers.
The plugin adds a Viber chat button to your site so visitors can start a conversation with you in one tap. It’s perfect for e-commerce stores and service providers.
Requirements
A free Viber Business account is required for the button to work. It’s built into your existing Viber app — no separate app or new phone number needed. Create one by opening this link on your mobile device: viber://business/create?smb_utm_campaign=ACQ_wordpress_plugin
Note: If you are using the multi-agent feature, each one of the phone numbers is required to have its own business account, otherwise the link won’t work.
