How do I chat with DS-Mate support?

1 min readSupport button, bottom-right of the web dashboard (Starter and Growth)

Live chat is part of Starter and Growth. Select the support button in the bottom-right of the dashboard, then Live Chat, then Start New Chat. An automated assistant may answer first, and you can be handed to a person during support hours, Monday to Friday, 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM EST.

Steps

  1. Sign in to the DS-Mate dashboard and select the support button in the bottom-right corner.
  2. Select Live Chat.
  3. Select Start New Chat, or select an earlier conversation from the list to see it again.
  4. Type your message and send it.
  5. If the assistant shows buttons or a short form, use them to continue or to ask for a person.
  6. When your conversation is solved, you may be asked to rate your support experience.

Good to know

  • On the Free plan, Live Chat shows Unlock Live Chat with an upgrade button. Select Submit a ticket instead to reach support without upgrading.
  • If you ask for a person outside support hours, the chat says so and saves your message, and the team replies when they are back online.
  • From Monday to Friday, the team replies within 24 hours. A message sent on a Saturday or Sunday gets its reply on the next working day.
  • Replies from a person show their name. Replies from the assistant do not.
  • When support replies in a chat, or a chat is resolved, you get a notification in DS-Mate. When a chat is resolved, you also get an email summary.
  • If the chat cannot connect, the widget shows Connection Error or Chat Unavailable. You can still submit a ticket.
