E-commerce Order Help

Perfect once shoppers start messaging you "where's my order" and "can I return this" faster than you can reply. Instead of digging through chats, they get a clean menu the second they open your bot, every request is captured with a reference number so nothing gets lost, and your orders team is pinged automatically — you just check status and reply, instead of hunting for the message in the first place.

Overview

A post-purchase assistant for your Telegram store: shoppers get an instant menu for tracking, changes, and returns, every request is logged with a reference number, and your team gets notified the moment one needs a look.

Who It's For

Perfect once shoppers start messaging you "where's my order" and "can I return this" faster than you can reply. Instead of digging through chats, they get a clean menu the second they open your bot, every request is captured with a reference number so nothing gets lost, and your orders team is pinged automatically — you just check status and reply, instead of hunting for the message in the first place.

Setup Requirements

  • Should order status come from a live system, an installed ecommerce module, or your team checking manually for now?
  • What should the bot ask for to identify a shopper — order number, email, phone, or their Telegram profile?
  • Which actions should the bot offer: tracking only, delivery changes, cancellations, returns, refunds, or all of them?
  • Where should the support and return-policy links point?
  • Connect your Telegram bot: Settings → Bots → paste the token @BotFather gave you.
  • To alert your fulfillment team about saved change, cancel, and return requests, tag those contacts with the "orders-team" tag on the Contacts page — the Notify orders team action messages everyone carrying that tag.
  • Open Variables and set your support and return-policy links so the buttons in the bot point to your real pages.
  • If you have an order system, connect it to replace the placeholder status lookup with real data.
  • Press Deploy, then send your bot an order number to confirm the request gets registered and your team gets notified.

Node Breakdown

  • Someone opens your bot and sees a compact menu: track an order, change or cancel, return or refund, talk to support
  • If the bot doesn't already know their order number, it asks for it
  • The request is registered on the spot — the shopper gets a reference number and "request received" instead of silence
  • Your orders team is notified immediately so a real person can check the actual status
  • Change, cancel, and return requests are collected with the details staff need, and return requests show your return policy up front
  • If they need more help, the bot collects the issue first, then opens a live support conversation — so staff see the context before they even reply

Details

Good to know

  • Out of the box, the bot doesn't guess at an order's status — it registers the request, marks it "received," and notifies your orders team so a person checks and replies. That's the honest default until you connect a real order system.
  • Connect an HTTP integration or an installed ecommerce module afterwards to have the bot read and show real order status automatically — that's a setup step, it doesn't change how the conversation flows.
  • Cancel, return, and change requests are routed to your team for confirmation rather than shown as done — nothing gets marked complete until a person has actually checked.
  • Live support opens as a real conversation inside your workspace, with the order number and the shopper's issue already attached, so your team isn't starting from zero.
  • Everything is editable afterwards in the visual editor — the menu wording, the questions asked, the return policy link, and which requests need a human are all plain settings, not code.

Keep in mind

  • The bot won't show a made-up delivery status, ETA, or tracking link — until a real order system is connected, it tells shoppers their request is being checked, which is the honest version.
  • Cancellations, refunds, and returns are never marked done automatically — they wait for a real status check or a team confirmation.
  • The bot asks for the order number first and only asks for more detail when it's actually needed, instead of front-loading every possible question.
  • Different requests route to different places — tracking, changes, and returns don't all dump into one generic "contact us" message.
