What Can You Do with ChannelReply’s Back Market Integration?

1. Get Back Market Messages & Order Data on One Screen

The ChannelReply–Back Market integration lets you answer messages in your helpdesk even more easily than in Back Market.

Order info appears right next to each ticket, so you can write your message and look up details on the same screen. No more switching back and forth between the message and the order!

You’ll also have the same clean, uncluttered message threads that you’re used to. ChannelReply keeps things just as organized as in Back Market, no matter which helpdesk you use.

2. Unify Support for Back Market, Amazon, eBay, Newegg, Shopify & Walmart

Back Market isn’t our only integration! ChannelReply users can also connect unlimited Amazon, eBay, NeweggShopify* and Walmart accounts.

On top of that, every helpdesk has integrations of its own. You can almost always connect with:

  • Shopify alternatives like BigCommerce and WooCommerce
  • Website help widgets and self-help systems
  • Email
  • Voice
  • Live chat
  • Social media channels like Facebook, Twitter and/or Instagram

ChannelReply can save you a huge amount of time on support even if Back Market messaging is your only support channel. But if you’re stuck switching between multiple systems, putting it all on one screen will save you countless hours every week! See how much simpler support can be with a free trial of ChannelReply.

*Our Shopify integration is not available for Gorgias. Their free Shopify integration is awesome enough without our help!

3. Use More Back Market Data in Your Response Templates

Back Market’s response templates are handy, but they only include five placeholders, like the customer’s name and the order number. If you want to include something like the item the customer ordered or their tracking ID, you have to type it in by hand.

ChannelReply solves that. With 18+ custom fields and variables, you can create powerful templates in Zendesk, Freshdesk, Zoho Desk, Gorgias or Re:amaze.* Automatically fill in every detail your customer could need to know and send detailed, personalized replies in two clicks!

4. Create Back Market Autoresponders

Wish there were a way to automatically answer your customers’ most common questions? You can, with the option to create a Back Market autoresponder in any of our supported helpdesks!

Here’s an example of an autoresponder created in Freshdesk, complete with placeholders for Back Market data.

And here’s the result on a ticket, with details like the item's title and the order's status automatically filled in!

5. Automate, Filter & More with Order Data in Advanced Tools

Most helpdesks allow you to use our custom fields in their most advanced tools.

For example, you could sort tickets by amount spent in Zendesk views, or create views that only show tickets about specific items in Zoho Desk.

Or, you could use SKUs to auto-assign tickets to the right agent with Freshdesk automations or Help Scout / Re:amaze workflows.

These are very simple examples. Advanced users can build specialized autoresponders, detailed reports, or automatic triage systems. It all depends on your helpdesk’s features—and your creativity!

6. View Mountains of Order Data on Back Market Tickets

Ever wish you could get emails about new Back Market orders? With ChannelReply, you can!

Our New Order notifications can create a ticket inside your helpdesk every time someone orders from your Back Market account. If you want, you can also use your helpdesk’s notification system to get an email each time.

Our New Order notifications also come complete with detailed order info in our app and custom fields. That makes them helpful for fulfilling orders, building reports, making records of orders received and more.

This feature is completely optional, and totally free for all ChannelReply users! Back Market New Order notifications don’t count as messages received on any ChannelReply plan.

8. Filter and/or Tag Back Market Notifications

By default, ChannelReply delivers all Back Market messages and notifications to your helpdesk. But that can cause your ticket views to get overloaded fast! To help you stay organized, we've given you the option to tag or filter out certain notifications:

  • Cancellations
  • Returns
  • IMEI / serial number requests
  • Invoice requests

As shown in the screenshot above, you can disable any of these notifications. You can also add tags, like "imei" for IMEI request notifications and "return" for return notifications.

Tags make it easy to filter Back Market notifications into separate views in your helpdesk. Plus, you can even use them to make automations work differently for buyer messages than for notifications.

After you've connected Back Market to your helpdesk, you'll be able to manage these options in your ChannelReply account. Just click Back Market on your dashboard, hit "EDIT" under any account, and scroll down to Notification Preferences.

9. Take Actions

In any of our supported helpdesks, you can take the following Back Market actions:

  • Validate individual items with the Validate Orderline option. (Shown in Re:amaze below.)

Validating a Back Market orderline in Re:amaze

  • Refund individual items using the Refund Orderline option. (Shown in Gorgias below.)

Refunding a Back Market orderline in Gorgias

  • Close or reopen the ticket in Back Market using the Close Ticket or Open Ticket action.

If you use Zendesk, Freshdesk, Zoho Desk or Re:amaze, you’ll also have a fourth action available:

  • Upload the order’s shipping information (tracking ID, tracking URL, and shipping date) in the Order Shipping dropdown. (Shown in Freshdesk below.)

Uploading shipping info from Freshdesk

These features mean you can do more than just answer questions. You can actually resolve many of the most common requests from inside your helpdesk! Your support team almost never needs to open Back Market and can truly handle all your customer service on one screen.

How Do I Get Started?

Just follow our step-by-step Back Market integration instructions. You can connect your Back Market account to ChannelReply in as little as 90 seconds.

If you ever have a question, send us a message and an agent will get back to you in no time. We’re always happy to help!
