When a customer writes "call me" on WhatsApp: how the voice agent calls back
What happens when a customer asks for a call on WhatsApp: Wenzy's voice agent calls, picks up the conversation and keeps everything in the same chat thread.
Why customers ask for a call
An inquiry starts on WhatsApp and, suddenly, the customer would rather talk: they have several questions, want to compare options or simply find it easier. If nobody on the team can call right then, the conversation cools down.

- Calls within the contact hours the business sets.
- If the customer prefers another time, it schedules a callback up to 30 days out.
