Vonage, a global leader in cloud communications helping companies accelerate their digital transformation, is empowering Razer, the leading global lifestyle brand for gamers, to engage with customers in Asia Pacific and allow direct procurements of gaming gear and accessories on social media using Vonage’s conversational commerce application, Jumper.ai.
Jumper.ai is Vonage’s end-to-end conversational commerce solution that facilitates brands to design omnichannel, messaging-first customer buying experiences throughout popular messaging, social, and web platforms.
Razer has various direct-to-consumer (D2C) channels, retail stores, and Razer.com. With conversational commerce capabilities powered by Vonage, it now intends to make use of its robust social media presence of more than 24 million followers across all platforms to continually enhance its omnichannel experiences.
Using Vonage’s conversational commerce application, the company caters directly to the varying demands of its customers over a seamless commerce flow, said Mandy Arbilo, Associate Director, Global Ecommerce Platform, Razer.
According to Euromonitor, in Asia Pacific, sales via social commerce are anticipated to achieve US$4 trillion by 2024. Tremendously, its youth segments have a penchant for social. Razer’s community and D2C strategy have a fastness in social networks creating an ever-growing global community, Arbilo said.
He added that their fans can connect with Razer directly, allowing a convenient moment for social commerce to maximize their customer experience.
Yash Kotak, Sr. Director of Product Management at Vonage, and Founder of Jumper.ai stated that Southeast Asia has surpassed countries such as the US, India, Mexico, and Brazil in both adoption and awareness of conversational commerce.
According to Bain & Co., social commerce reported for 44% of Southeast Asia’s US$109 billion e-commerce market in 2020. Using its conversational commerce application, e-commerce competitors like Razer can leverage their presence on social media to establish a seamless shopping experience and increase their customers’ confidence in tailored conversations over their products and offerings.
Recent developments to Vonage’s Jumper.ai conversational commerce solution enable brands to seamlessly invite purchasers to a live video interaction with a customer service agent or in-store associate. This allows consumers to engage in personal conversations about products from everywhere while aiding retailers to build trusted relationships with customers.
