Assisted Shopping Widget: WhatsApp, Live Video and Phone Call
Please introduce a configurable “Get Expert Shopping Help” floating widget for Shoopy stores, similar to the experience currently used by Frido and Flamingo Health. The widget should open a single panel offering customers three ways to connect: Chat with an Expert on WhatsApp Live Video Shopping Shop on Call or Request a Callback Why this is required: Many Shoopy merchants sell products that require consultation before purchase, including mobility equipment, medical aids, furniture, electronics and customised products. For Acc-Red, customers frequently need expert assistance to: * Select the correct wheelchair ramp length. * Share photographs or videos of their steps and entrance. * Check whether the product suits a manual or powered wheelchair. * Understand load capacity, dimensions and portability. * See a live product demonstration. * Decide between a ready-made product and an installed solution. Providing this guidance directly from the product page can reduce hesitation, prevent unsuitable purchases and help customers make safer decisions. Requested merchant controls: * Enable or disable each contact method individually. * Add the WhatsApp number, telephone number and video-call link. * Set working hours and an offline callback option. * Customise the heading, button labels, colours and icons. * Display it sitewide or only on selected product pages. * Automatically include the product name, SKU, selected variant and URL in the WhatsApp message. * Allow “Connect Now” or “Book a Video Consultation.” * Track widget opens, channel clicks, assisted orders and revenue. * Make the widget mobile-responsive and WCAG 2.2 AA accessible, including keyboard navigation, screen-reader labels, visible focus and an accessible close button. A simple first version does not require Shoopy to build its own video-calling infrastructure. Merchants could configure WhatsApp, Google Meet or another video-call link. Scheduling and agent routing could be added later. Reference implementations: * Frido: https://myfrido.com/ * Flamingo Health: https://www.flamingohealth.com/ Both stores provide a unified expert-shopping interface containing WhatsApp assistance, live video shopping and shop-on-call options. This would give Shoopy merchants a conversion-oriented feature currently available through custom implementations on Shopify stores, while being particularly valuable for high-consideration and demonstration-led products.
