It's the call every store gets. The receptionist answers in your store's name, pulls the order number and the question from the caller, and promises a follow-up, and that note lands on the Shopify customer's timeline, next to the order it's about. Your team resolves it in one touch.
Abby doesn't touch the order itself: no edits, no refunds, no cancellations. The receptionist captures exactly what your team needs to close the loop inside Shopify.
Sale Week Without The Hold Music
The best week of your year is also the week your phone becomes a liability. During launches and sales, Abby absorbs the volume: every caller hears your store's greeting, gets a real answer or a captured question, and shows up in Shopify as a note your team works through between orders.
The store you built stays the store they experience, even on the day three hundred people want to talk to it at once. Solicitors and robocalls are screened out before they ever touch your customer records.

Behind The Storefront
Order-status calls off your plateThe receptionist captures the order number and the question; your team answers with the tracking link, not twenty questions.
Launch days and sale spikesWhen a drop sends call volume through the roof, every caller still reaches a person, and every question queues neatly in Shopify.
After-hours shoppersEvening and weekend callers are answered live; the morning follow-up list is waiting in your customer records.
Wholesale and custom inquiriesThe big inquiries get captured with full details and flagged for the owner per your rules, not left on voicemail.
How It Works
1Onboarding links your Shopify store and agrees what creates a new customer versus a note on an existing one.
2Receptionists answer as your store (day, night, launch day), following your handling instructions.
3Caller details and questions land on the Shopify customer record, ready for your team's follow-up.
FAQs
Does Abby have a Shopify calling integration for customer-service calls?
Yes, this is it. Abby answers your store's calls 24/7 and logs caller details to Shopify customer records, so phone questions get the same context and follow-up as emails.
Can Abby process orders, refunds, or exchanges?
No. Receptionists capture what the caller needs (order number, question, callback details), and your team completes the order work inside Shopify.
Do callers know they've reached a virtual receptionist?
They hear your store's name and your greeting. Abby's receptionists follow your script and your tone. Most callers assume they've reached your front desk.
What exactly lands on the customer record?
Caller name and number, time of call, the question or reason, any order number given, and the outcome or promise made.
Does the AI receptionist option log to Shopify too?
Yes. Calls answered by your human receptionist team and by Abby's AI receptionist land in Shopify the same way, clearly labeled.
