The Appointment feature makes scheduling any meetings a totally smooth and hassle-free experience for customers. The integration into the chat widget helps a business allow their customers to schedule instant meetings in chat messenger. This will help clients see exactly which appointments are available and thus can book them instantly.
The Appointment feature can add value in numerous ways:
In order to enable appointments successfully, you need to follow the below-mentioned steps.
1. Under REVE Chat dashboard -> go to Settings menu -> Click on General Settings -> then click on Appointment option.
2. Connect with your Google account (Gmail account).
3. After the connection is successful, the next step is ‘Appointment Settings’.
