Proactive notifications for Legacy Webchat
Configure proactive notifications in your self-service configuration so that you can send relevant information, offers, and service cases to your customers proactively, based on their account profile. If you enable proactive notifications, Pega Customer Service interacts with Customer Decision Hub (CDH) when a customer visits your website, to predict the customer's needs and offer bot-enabled assistance. In this way, proactive notifications can save the customer's time and make the work of the customer service representatives (CSRs) more efficient.
Pega Customer Service
Implementation Guide
For example, if a customer whose bill has increased by USD
25 in the current month logs in to your website, one possible reason is that they want
to check their billing history. If CDH determines that a notification should be sent to
the customer, the Legacy Webchat window slides open with a relevant message and links to
either make a billing inquiry or close the notification. You can also configure the
notification window to minimize after a specified amount of time if the customer ignores
it.
