Use case · Viber payment reminders

Payment reminder emails go unread. Phone calls go unanswered.

Astra.Chat sends personalised Viber messages that customers actually open — with a payment link, outstanding balance, and a reply button. Automated flows handle the follow-up. Your team only steps in when it matters.

How it works

From overdue invoice to paid — automatically

01

Invoice or due date triggers the flow

Astra.Chat monitors your billing system or CRM. When a payment is approaching or overdue, it fires the reminder automatically — no manual export needed.

02

Personalised Viber message delivered

Each message includes the customer's name, outstanding amount, due date, and a direct payment link. Sent over Viber — where open rates are above 90%.

03

Customer replies or clicks pay

The customer can pay immediately via the link, ask a question, or request a payment plan — all handled in the same Viber thread.

04

Replies route to your team if needed

Automated flows handle common replies. Anything that needs a human goes to your team via Astra.Chat or Astra.Helpdesk with full context.
