Consumer experience now drives purchasing decisions, as 74% of shoppers base choices on experience alone, and 75% of consumers favor companies that offer rewards. Pandemic-driven online shifts have raised expectations and made loyalty harder to maintain. Improvements include using contextual surveys with rewards such as Rybbon, maintaining consistency across devices via persistent carts and social media response (expected by 65% of users), and personalizing with product tours and data enrichment like Amplitude. Support can be supercharged with Resolution Bot, multilingual articles, and order tracking (desired by 70% of shoppers), while checkout optimization—avoiding forced account creation (a 34% abandonment cause) and redundant data entry, plus integrating Stripe—directly reduces friction. These targeted steps turn customer experience into a powerful competitive edge.

Intercom has partnered with WhatsApp to offer an integration that lets businesses manage customer support conversations directly from the Intercom Inbox, reaching WhatsApp’s 2.5 billion users across over 100 countries. The integration simplifies omnichannel support by bringing WhatsApp messages into the same tool where teams already handle other channels, eliminating the need for separate software or new processes. Customers can initiate a conversation through the Intercom Messenger and then seamlessly switch to WhatsApp by scanning a QR code, making it easier to receive support on their preferred platform. Support teams continue using their existing workflows because core inbox tools such as rules, SLAs, and macros work with WhatsApp conversations, and messages appear directly in their usual inbox. Additionally, reporting features allow businesses to compare WhatsApp’s conversation volume, response times, and customer satisfaction against other channels to optimize their omnichannel strategy.

AI is shifting support from reactive backlog management toward proactive experience design, as teams gain capacity through faster, more efficient service across languages and time zones. The report says 58% rank experience and satisfaction as their top 2026 priority, up from 28%, while mature deployment triples the share able to always meet expectations from 9%. Intercom’s support team expanded access, improved first-response rates, and added onboarding sessions while absorbing a 300% demand increase without expanding headcount, enabled by deep integration of Fin. Clay uses Fin across Slack, email, and in-app chat, where it handles half of roughly 7,000 monthly queries and participates in 90% of all queries. The recommended model treats support as a product, combines AI with human handoffs, anticipates needs, builds trust, and personalizes interactions.
