ChatLink for WooCommerce vs Gobot – Sales Boosting Chatbot

ChatLink for WooCommerce adds a customizable WhatsApp floating button to your site so visitors can start a chat in a single click. The button can open WhatsApp directly or display a small chat popup with a welcome message and quick FAQ replies. For WooCommerce stores, ChatLink can turn products into “inquiry by WhatsApp” items instead of using the normal cart flow. You can optionally hide add-to-cart buttons, prices, and even redirect cart/checkout to keep everything as conversation-based inquiries. Shortcodes are included so you can drop WhatsApp buttons anywhere in your content, landing pages, or widgets. The plugin is lightweight, uses standard WordPress APIs, and is designed to work with most themes. Key Features Floating WhatsApp button with position, size, color, tooltip, and animation options. Optional chat popup with header, welcome message, and “Start Chat” button. FAQ section inside the popup with clickable questions that pre-fill WhatsApp messages. Device targeting: show on all devices, desktop only, or mobile only. Visibility rules: show on all pages or only on selected pages. WooCommerce product inquiry button with customizable label and message template. Options to hide add-to-cart, buy-now, prices, cart page, and checkout page.
