Boei Lead Inbox for Ecwid

Turn Ecwid Browsers into Buyers

70% of Ecwid shoppers abandon their cart before checkout. Many leave because a simple product question went unanswered — sizing, compatibility, shipping costs, return policy. AI live chat intercepts these hesitant shoppers, answers their questions instantly using your product catalog, and captures their contact details for follow-up. Every browsing session becomes a conversion opportunity.

  • AI answers product questions: sizing, compatibility, shipping, availability
  • Every shopper scored by purchase intent and cart value
  • Leads delivered instantly via email, webhook, or directly to your CRM
  • Complete AI conversation transcript shows exactly what the shopper asked
  • Source tracking shows which Ecwid product pages they viewed

Seamless AI-to-Human Handover

When an Ecwid shopper needs help with a custom order, bulk pricing, or a complex return, your AI escalates to your team on WhatsApp, Messenger, or any channel they use. The handover includes full conversation history, product interests, and contact details — your team closes the sale with full context.

  • Escalation triggers: high cart value, custom order, complex return
  • Full conversation history and AI-generated summary included
  • Routes to WhatsApp, Messenger, Telegram, email, or Slack
  • Smart routing: round-robin, random, or manual claim
  • Unlimited team seats at no extra cost

Why Your Ecwid Store Needs AI Live Chat

Ecwid lets you add e-commerce to any website — but it comes with significant gaps in customer engagement:

  • No built-in live chat — Ecwid has no native chat widget or real-time messaging. Shoppers with pre-purchase questions either email you (slow) or leave (lost sale).
  • Product questions kill conversions — "Does this come in blue?" "Is this compatible with X?" "When will you restock?" Without instant answers, shoppers buy from competitors who respond faster.
  • Embedded stores need chat too — Ecwid stores are often embedded in existing websites (WordPress, Wix, Squarespace). Chat needs to work seamlessly across the parent site and the Ecwid storefront.
  • Small e-commerce teams can't staff 24/7 chat — You don't have a support team monitoring live chat around the clock. Without AI, missed messages mean missed revenue.
  • No follow-up after cart abandonment — Shoppers add items to cart, leave, and there's no way to continue the conversation on WhatsApp or Messenger.

Boei fixes this for Ecwid: add one script to your site, train AI on your product pages, and let it sell for you. AI routes serious buyers to your team on WhatsApp — conversations continue after they leave. See the Ecwid installation guide.

Ecwid AI Live Chat FAQ

Does Boei include an AI chatbot for Ecwid?

Yes — AI is included in every Boei plan, not a paid add-on. Your AI chatbot answers product questions, handles shipping and return inquiries, qualifies buyers, and escalates high-value orders to your team on WhatsApp or Messenger. 2,000 AI messages included per month.

How do I install live chat on my Ecwid store?

Add the Boei script to the website where your Ecwid store is embedded. If Ecwid is on a WordPress site, use the WordPress plugin. For standalone Ecwid Instant Sites, add the code via the site's custom code section. See the full Ecwid installation guide.

Does it work with embedded Ecwid stores?

Yes — Ecwid is typically embedded in another website (WordPress, Wix, etc.). The Boei script goes on the parent site and works seamlessly across all pages, including your Ecwid product catalog and checkout.

Can AI answer product-specific questions?

Yes — Boei's AI learns from your product pages automatically. It can answer questions about sizing, materials, compatibility, shipping costs, return policies, and stock availability based on your site content.

Do I need to be online 24/7?

No — your AI handles it. It answers shopper questions instantly, captures contact details, and qualifies buyers around the clock. When your team is available, AI escalates ready-to-buy shoppers directly. When you're offline, AI continues selling.

How does AI-to-human handover work?

You define the rules: escalate for custom orders, bulk pricing, complex returns, or when the shopper asks for a human. Your team gets the full conversation history, product interests, and contact details on WhatsApp, Messenger, or email.

Will live chat slow down my Ecwid store?

No. Boei loads asynchronously after your page and store content, uses CDN delivery, and has no heavy dependencies. Zero impact on page load times or Ecwid store performance.

Can I use multiple team members?

Yes — unlimited team seats at no extra cost. Perfect for growing e-commerce teams. Configure smart routing for escalated conversations: round-robin, random assignment, or manual claim.

Is Boei GDPR compliant?

Yes. Boei is built by a Dutch company with all servers in Amsterdam. The widget runs cookieless by default — important for European e-commerce stores subject to GDPR.

What's included for €14/month?

AI chatbot (2,000 messages), unlimited conversations, unlimited team seats, all 50+ channels, lead scoring, analytics, CRM inbox, and use on unlimited Ecwid stores. One flat price — no per-agent fees like LiveChat or JivoChat.
