Ingenico, a payment solution provider, has launched a payment-enabled chatbot that uses natural language processing from IBM Watson. The bot, which is capable of responding in a wide range of different languages, incorporates Ingenico’s secure payment API to let shoppers purchase products and services within the app environment.
Enabling payments within the app environment can help retailers boost conversion by reducing the number of steps shoppers need to take to complete their purchases. The bots can also gather information on shoppers’ needs and desires, enabling them to tailor their offering to meet their customers’ changing requirements.
