Intercom is a popular web chat service that you add to your website to interact with visitors to your site. Using Zapier, you can integrate Intercom with WhatConverts and get your chat information with marketing data on your WhatConverts dashboard.

Note: If you haven't added your WhatConverts tracking script to your website, add your tracking script. If you are using the WhatConverts WordPress Plugin, you will want to deactivate the plugin and place your WhatConverts Tracking Code above your Intercom Integration Code

1On your website where you have placed your Intercom Javascript Installation Code, replace your Intercom Basic Javascript for Website Visitors Installation Code.
