Bottomline Technologies has added an AI-enabled chat support to its payment solutions for Paymode-X and PTX customers.

The chat support system is powered by Drift, a conversational marketing platform used by B2B companies. Its artificial intelligence technology is designed to enable pertinent conversations and meeting customer requirements.

The system will provide Paymode-X and PTX customers with real-time support and make sign up and accessing even easier.

In North America, the chat system will offer live support for businesses selecting digital payment option by virtual card and ACH through Paymode-X.

Bottomline’s PTX customers in Europe can access the facility to receive customer support during and after work hours.

Bottomline Technologies vice-president of strategy & product Bill Wardwell said: “At Bottomline, we are always looking for innovative ways to delight our customers with world-class service.
