Viber Business Calls
A new era for Customer Support
We are excited to announce a new Viber service, the Viber Business Calls, which is the most recent communication solution of the company aiming to transform the ways businesses communicate with their customers.
Customer service experiences that stand out for the immediacy and effectiveness are important for any business. Fast resolution times and knowledgeable agents are of course critical factors, but they are not enough…
The truth is that, while fast and effective resolution is important, there is an additional factor that’s even more crucial in order to win over your customers. According to research, 91% of consumers prefer brands that give them the option to either call or chat. This preference shows the importance of choice and personal touch in customer service - as these two elements build powerful emotional connections between customers and brands.
In a time where all of us are attached to our mobiles and at the same time we seek real connections, Viber brings the solution by providing the users with the ability to choose how they will connect with the brands that they love and follow. From now on, communicating with a business is as convenient and natural as contacting friends and family. This is the new offering of Viber with Business Calls.

How Viber Business Calls solve problems/challenges that customers face?
Let’s see two scenarios where Business Calls help your customers reach you easily and directly.
Reduce unnecessary navigation between different apps
Let’s assume that a customer is chatting with your business via Viber Business Messages and at some point wishes to call you.
Then, he/she needs to ask a contact number from the agent that chats with or google for the number online. Then, he/she has to copy the number, change the screen on his/her mobile and call. In other words, he/she needs to perform a series of additional actions that interrupt the flow of the conversation.
Now, with Business Calls you offer them the option of connecting with you with just 1 click directly from within the Viber app.
Eliminate the communication cost for customers
A very important reason that makes the customers reluctant in communicating with a business regards the cost of the call.
In many cases, customers search for information regarding the charges of the number they are about to call, if the number is premium etc. Additionally, many of them expect that customer support is free as they’ve already bought a product or service. Moreover, traveling customers may face roaming charges.
All the above concerns cease to exist with the addition of a free contact number on your Viber Business Profile.
