Communicate and Sell Inside Viber Communities with ChatGenie

August 29, 2023 5:54 PM

Viber is undoubtedly one of the most popular messaging and calling platforms in the Philippines. With its business messaging features, many businesses and individuals using it to connect with their customers and followers. Viber Communities and Channels are two features that can help businesses build a community around their brand, reach a wider audience, and gather valuable feedback and insights.

Now, let’s talk about the basics. What is a Viber Community or Channel? Here’s everything you need to know about them and how they’re going to benefit your business with In-App Commerce:

What’s a Viber Community?

A Viber Community is a group of people who share similar interests and communicate through Viber's messaging and calling platform. To join a Viber Community, you must be invited by a member or any community admin. Your customers can easily order through your Viber Community as long as it’s connected to a ChatGenie-powered bot.

*To connect your In-App Commerce store to your community, message us at chat@chatgenie.ph.

What’s a Viber Channel?

Viber Channels, on the other hand, are one-way communication platforms that allow businesses, organizations, and individuals to broadcast messages to their followers. Unlike Viber Communities, members cannot post or interact with each other in Viber Channels. Customers can easily join the channel by clicking the merchant’s invite link.
