Make your shop pop
Creating great customer experience in retail is tough. Keeping customers happy means making every interaction matter. With Zendesk, you can make sure your customers get the support they need – wherever they’re interacting with your brand. Because happy shoppers are repeat customers – and that’s what makes a good brand great.

With Zendesk, you can bring together data from all parts of your business – including inventory, billing, shopping history and preferences. Because the more you know about your customers, the easier it is to deliver exactly what they want – and make sure they keep coming back.
