With Velaro Voice, call requests can be initiated directly from a Velaro Bot conversation. Whether you are using Call Bridging, or just want your customers to be able to request a manual call-back from your agents that's tracked in Velaro, your customers can easily request a phone call if they need more assistance than your bot can provide.
To enable this functionality, calling will need to be enabled for your account. See Chatbot Request a Call for instructions to configure calling.
