1. How does Chat ON Desk help reduce COD fraud and returns?

Chat ON Desk verifies customers with a WhatsApp OTP before confirming Cash-on-Delivery orders. This ensures genuine intent, reducing fake or incomplete orders and lowering return rates.

2. Can I use Chat ON Desk for abandoned cart recovery?

Yes. The app automatically sends WhatsApp reminders to customers who leave items in their carts, helping you recover lost sales without extra manual effort.

3. Do I need coding skills to set up the app?

Not at all. Chat ON Desk can be set up in just 3 minutes. Simply install from the Shopify App Store, connect your WhatsApp Business API, and you’re ready to go.

4. How are WhatsApp messages billed?

The app is free to install. WhatsApp charges apply as per Meta’s official rates. You only pay for the actual messages sent—no hidden fees.

No, OTP login is an additional option to make sign-in faster and safer. Your customers can still log in with their password if they prefer.

6. Can I customize the WhatsApp messages?

7. Is Chat ON Desk available worldwide?

Not at all. All communications happen securely via WhatsApp Business API, fully compliant with Meta’s policies. No customer data is shared with third parties.

10. What makes Chat ON Desk different from other chat or OTP apps?

Unlike generic chat tools, Chat ON Desk combines WhatsApp OTP login, cart recovery, and order notifications in one simple app designed for Shopify merchants—especially for markets where COD is common.
