Can I message a visitor after they close the website or chat widget?

Hi everyone!

Is it possible to set things up so that if a visitor closes the website or the chat window, I can still message them afterward?

Thanks

Hey,

If a visitor closes the website, any message sent through the live chat widget will only be shown when they return to the site.

If you didn鈥檛 collect their email address or phone number before they left, the online chat widget has no way to reach them outside the website.

So the best practice is to ask for the visitor鈥檚 email or phone number in the welcome flow. That way, you鈥檒l have a way to follow up with them even if they leave the site.
