Everything you need for great customer service — in one platform
Every webshop gets the same questions over and over: "How long does delivery take?", "Can I still cancel my order?", "What is your return policy?". Your team answers them again and again — while customers could have found the same answer themselves.
A help center solves this. Customers find answers at 3am, your inbox stays manageable, and your team has time for conversations that actually matter.
In this article, you'll learn how to set up a professional help center for your webshop — including which articles to write first.
A help center (also called a knowledge base or FAQ page) is a searchable collection of articles at its own URL — like help.yourwebshop.com. Customers search their question and find a comprehensive answer, without needing to contact you.

The real advantage comes when your help center and AI chatbot work together. Bugalou's AI agent reads your help center articles and uses them to automatically answer customer questions — even outside office hours.
Imagine: a customer sends a WhatsApp message asking "when will my package arrive?". The AI agent recognizes the question, finds the answer in your help center, and sends a personal reply — without a team member needing to step in.
Base this on your inbox. But as a guideline, these articles work best for webshops:
