Helpshift helping top grossing apps with their customer support

Helpshift, the company providing customer support through enterprise-level, in-app customer experiences, has announced that its customer support platform is used by 34 of the top 100 grossing gaming apps, including five of the top 20, as ranked on Apptopia, a provider of mobile app intelligence.

“Gaming apps that provide more sophisticated in-app support are more likely to enjoy stronger user engagement and loyalty, as this ranking demonstrates,” said Abinash Tripathy, Founder and CEO of Helpshift. “We’re here to help with that. Helpshift’s in-app support boosts customer satisfaction to keep players engaged and spending time in a game.”

Many mobile gaming apps have support solutions that are slow and cumbersome and require players to leave their games in order to get help. Helpshift has built a range of features specifically designed to keep players in the game, with as few interruptions as possible and the quickest possible resolution times.

Features include:

- Searchable in-app FAQ
- More than 30 localized languages
- Smart segmentation and custom metadata
- In-app and push notifications
- In-app feedback
- Two-way, in-app messaging

"Mobile gaming is a multi-billion-dollar industry taking place entirely through personal mobile devices, where acquiring and retaining screen-share is highly competitive,” said Jonathan Kay, Founder and COO of Apptopia. “With more than 1,700 game submissions to the app stores every day, creating a rewarding user experience is imperative, and offering strong in-app support can lead to a significant improvement in retention."
