Order taking and payments on the phone

AI voice agents capture orders, run PCI-compliant payment workflows through systems you already trust, and warm-transfer cleanly when a shopper needs a person.

The problem

Missed calls and understaffed peaks lose orders. Scripted IVRs frustrate buyers. BPOs scale headcount instead of outcomes, and still struggle at flash sales.

The Fluents motion

Contain the call, complete the transaction, write back to your stack. Elastic capacity for peaks without locking a quarterly headcount contract.

What happens on the call

01

Caller reaches your number

Elastic capacity answers peaks without a hiring spike or abandoned carts on hold.

02

Agent captures the order

Guided conversation collects SKUs, quantities, shipping, and exceptions your policies allow.

03

Payment & confirmation

Complete payment via your processor workflow; confirm the order back to the caller.

04

Write back or hand off

Order lands in your stack. Edge cases transfer to humans with the conversation intact.
