How it sells itself

Mercaux leverages existing product and customer information and ordering capabilities from Shopify to unlock unique O2O (Online to/from Offline) customer journeys and data capture. We provide a single app for Store Associates with Endless Aisle & Product discovery, Clienteling, Remote Selling/Messaging, Analytics and other capabilities.

Inbox puts an AI-powered sales associate on your storefront. Buyers can ask questions and get help finding the right products from your catalog. When buyers sign in with Shop, your Inbox agent can personalize replies using their preferences and purchase history from across Shopify. Run Inbox with or without the agent.

Key points
  • Use endless aisle and rich product data for in-store product discovery
  • Order from both in-store and online assortment with mixed basket
  • Leverage existing customer data to personalise experience in-store & remotely
  • Accept inbound messages and send personalised outreach and mass campaigns
  • Add chat to your store with a seamless workflow in Shopify.
  • Manage conversations from online store chat and Shop app.
  • Quickly understand who customers are with profile and cart details.
  • Send product recommendations, photos, and discounts without leaving the chat.
