WhatsApp ticketing for teams that don't sit at desks

WhatsApp ticketing means your field staff, retail floor, warehouse crew, or on-the-go teams raise issues the way they already communicate — a WhatsApp message — and FlowTux turns each one into a tracked, AI-triaged ticket.

Replies and status updates flow back over WhatsApp automatically. The requester never installs an app, never opens a portal, never learns a new tool.

The intake problem for deskless teams

Ticket portals assume a desk and a browser. For the half of most companies that works on a floor, in a vehicle, or at a customer site, the real support channel is the phone in their pocket — and that means issues arrive as WhatsApp messages to whoever might help, get handled ad hoc, and leave no record.

The result: no queue, no priorities, no data on what keeps breaking, and the same problem solved from scratch every time.

How FlowTux WhatsApp ticketing works

Your team gets a dedicated WhatsApp number connected to FlowTux. Any message to it — text, photo of the broken thing, voice note — becomes a ticket. Tux AI reads it, categorizes it, sets priority, checks for duplicates, and routes it to the right resolver alongside everything arriving from Slack, email, and your monitoring stack.

The requester gets an automatic confirmation with a ticket reference, progress updates as status changes, and the resolution message when it closes — all inside the same WhatsApp conversation. Photos and voice notes stay attached to the ticket.

One queue, every channel

WhatsApp is an intake, not a silo. Tickets raised over WhatsApp land in the same AI-triaged queue as everything else, follow the same routing and SLA rules, and appear in the same reporting. A store manager’s WhatsApp report of a down POS terminal and the Sentry alert it triggered deduplicate into one incident.

What you get

Zero-install intake

Requesters use the WhatsApp they already have. No app, no portal, no training.

Media attachments

Photos and voice notes attach to the ticket — often the fastest way to describe a physical problem.

Two-way updates

Confirmation, progress, and resolution messages flow back over WhatsApp automatically.

Same AI triage

Category, priority, dedup, and routing applied on arrival — same engine as every other channel.

Unified queue

WhatsApp tickets sit beside Slack, email, and Sentry tickets in one reportable queue.

Frequently asked questions

What is WhatsApp ticketing?

WhatsApp ticketing turns WhatsApp messages into tracked support tickets. With FlowTux, a message to your support WhatsApp number becomes a ticket with AI-assigned category, priority, and owner, and the requester receives status updates back in the same WhatsApp conversation.

Do requesters need to install anything?

No. Requesters just message a WhatsApp number. All structure — ticket creation, triage, routing, updates — happens on the FlowTux side.

Can WhatsApp tickets include photos and voice notes?

Yes. Media sent in the conversation attaches to the ticket, and voice notes are transcribed so triage and search work on their content.

Which teams use WhatsApp ticketing most?

Retail floors, field service, logistics and warehouses, hospitality, and any team where requesters work away from a desk. It also fits companies in regions where WhatsApp is the default work channel.
