Offering Callbacks to Callers Waiting in Queues

Give callers waiting in queues the option of requesting a callback. You can offer a callback when the waiting queue audio has played a set number of times, or when a set number of calls are in the queue ahead of the caller. 
How do callers request callbacks?
Once the caller hears the option, they can press a number on their phone to request a callback. The call then hangs up, and they keep their place in line in the queue. The caller receives a callback once they're next in the queue, and an agent is available. 

To offer callbacks to callers waiting in queues:

  1. In the Wix Answers app, go to Settings > Support Channels > Call Center & SMS > Queues.
  1. Click Manage next to the relevant queue.

    • The waiting queue message has played X times: Select the checkbox and set the number of times the waiting queue message must play. 
    • There are more than X calls in the queue before the caller: Select the checkbox and set the number of calls that must be in the queue before the caller.
