factualminds EngageX | Retail Customer Engagement for Amazon Connect

Retail customers don't just call for support. They call about the entire order journey.

Where is my order? Can I return this? Can I exchange it? Can you help me find the right product? Can I add something to my order?

Retail conversations rarely fit a single category. A customer may start with an order question, move to a return, ask about another product, and continue through text or email.

factualminds EngageX Retail Connect extends Amazon Connect with the commerce context, workflows, integrations, and omnichannel experiences needed to manage these interactions across the retail customer journey.

Turn customer service into a connected retail experience

Amazon Connect provides the customer engagement foundation. EngageX connects it to the systems and information retail teams rely on.

Commerce Data → EngageX → Amazon Connect → Customer Interaction → Workflow → Resolution / Next Purchase

Bring relevant context into the conversation:

• Customer profile and purchase history
• Orders, delivery, returns, and exchanges
• Products and relevant inventory information
• Customer service history
• Account and transaction information

Handle the question. Continue the journey.

A customer asks, "Where is my order?"

The interaction does not have to end with an order-status response. EngageX can help move from:

Order Status → Product Context → Recommendation → Purchase

While helping with an order, the experience can surface relevant or complementary products where appropriate.

Similarly:

Return → Exchange → Product Discovery

Instead of treating a return as the end of the interaction, customers can be guided through an exchange or relevant alternative product experience.

The goal is not to force a sales conversation into every support interaction. It is to help retail teams recognize the next useful step.

Built for Retail Customer Service

EngageX can support common retail and eCommerce scenarios:

• Order & Delivery: Give agents order and delivery context.
• Returns & Exchanges: Support returns, exchanges, replacement products, and related workflows.
• Product Questions: Bring product information into the interaction.
• Upsell & Cross-Sell: Use customer, order, and product context to identify relevant opportunities.
• Seasonal Peaks: Support higher interaction volumes during holidays, promotions, and product launches.
• Customer Support: Connect customer history, commerce information, and service workflows.

Omnichannel without starting over

Retail customers may start with Phone → SMS → Email, Chat → WhatsApp → Voice, or move between digital channels as the issue develops.

EngageX is designed around an omnichannel customer engagement model where customer and commerce context can follow the interaction across:

Voice → Chat → SMS → WhatsApp → RCS → Email

Change the channel, not the context.

Connect the commerce systems behind the conversation

Retail environments rarely run on a single system. EngageX can support integration with commerce, ERP, CRM, and business platforms such as:

Shopify • BigCommerce • Magento • NetSuite • Odoo • Oracle • SAP

These integrations bring business context into Amazon Connect workflows.

One customer journey across service, sales, and digital

EngageX brings together three layers:

Customer: Who is the customer and what have they purchased?

Commerce: What did they order? Where is it? Can it be returned or exchanged? What other products are relevant?

Engagement: How should Amazon Connect respond, route, assist, automate, or engage?

Customer → Commerce → Engagement

This creates a connected retail experience rather than separate customer service and commerce systems.

Built on AWS

EngageX can leverage Amazon Connect, Amazon Bedrock, Contact Lens, AWS Lambda, API Gateway, EventBridge, Amazon S3, and other AWS services to build retail customer engagement, integration, automation, analytics, and AI capabilities.

The architecture can be tailored to the retailer's existing environment.

From contact center to commerce experience

Traditional contact centers focus on answering the customer's question. Retail customer engagement needs to understand what happened before the conversation and what should happen next.
