WhatsApp for online stores: take orders, get paid and keep customers posted

D2C brands and Instagram sellers take orders in DMs, chase payments, confirm cash-on-delivery orders and answer "where is my order?" all day.

The conversation is an example with a sample business, not a customer story.

What changes

From personal phones to one official number

  • TodayOrders taken in DMs, sizes and addresses typed into notes.

    With i-ConnectA checkout Flow takes the item, size, quantity and address in the chat, with live stock.

  • TodayScreenshots of UPI payments and "is this paid?"

    With i-ConnectA payment page with your own UPI ID, or Razorpay confirming the payment by itself.

  • TodayCOD orders shipped without a check, and refused at the door.

    With i-ConnectEach cash-on-delivery order is confirmed on WhatsApp before it ships; no answer goes to support.

Fewer refused parcels

Confirm cash on delivery before it ships

A cash-on-delivery order asks the customer to confirm in WhatsApp. Confirmed orders get packed; ones nobody confirms go to support instead of the courier.

  • Take orders inside WhatsApp with a checkout Flow: your products, sizes and stock, UPI or cash on delivery.
  • Keep products and stock in step with Shopify or WooCommerce, and send WhatsApp orders into your store.
  • Book couriers through Shiprocket; picked up, out for delivery and delivered reach the customer on WhatsApp by themselves.
  • Remind customers who left a checkout, once, inside the chat or with an approved template if they agreed to marketing.
  • Answer "where is my order?" from your order data, and start returns in a WhatsApp Flow.

Use cases

What online stores & d2c teams use most

What keeps your customers safe

  • Money goes straight to your UPI ID or your own Razorpay account; i-Connect never holds it.
  • Frequency caps and a send window keep promotions from piling up on the same customer.
  • A purchased or imported list can never re-subscribe someone who opted out.
  • Promotions go only to people who opted in, and a STOP applies everywhere at once.
