Does my organisation need to go omnichannel?
As your customers switch buying & communication channels, they expect a personalised, white-glove service. Our VCC is the retail-dedicated solution ensuring your customers always feel valued, and that they’re dealt with like & by real people… just like our partners feel about us. And, since we’ll integrate seamlessly with your chosen CRM, we can get started immediately.
Our VCC is built to facilitate an enhanced omnichannel shopping experience. Your customers will be able to find what they’re looking for easily, more quickly, and make a fully-supported, rapidly-fulfilled purchase – without the need for you to hire more customer service agents.
Take social media for example: Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter, WhatsApp… the modern consumer has countless social media options available. Enable your organisation to meet and communicate with your customers, whichever social platform they choose.

Our VCC comes complete with a full suite of performance monitoring, data reports & statistical analysis, to keep your sales team driving towards its core KPIs – service level, CSAT, ROAS, ROI and more.
Is the VCC a secure system?
The need for robust data security in retail is at an all-time high. Safe handling of customers’ personal information is an express priority with our VCC – that’s why we collaborate so closely with PCIPal, the market leaders in secure payments over the phone.
Enable your shoppers to purchase in faith & confidence, with security protocols that far exceed those of other retailers.
