Intercom in KO: a website chat counts as a lead

We connect Intercom on request. If a person leaves an email or phone in the chat, KO counts the chat as a lead. KO links the lead to the visit where the chat started. Then the lead moves through the same funnel as form leads.

Intercom KO

What KO takes

  • New conversations and the page where the person started the chat
  • The contact: name, email and phone that the person left in the chat
  • The KO visit ID: the KO tracker on the page passes it to Intercom
  • Source tags that Intercom saved on the contact, if there is no visit ID

How we would connect it

KO connects through the official Intercom API and webhooks for new conversations and contacts. The KO tracker passes the visit ID to Intercom as a visitor attribute.

Where data gets lost and how KO notices it

Not every chat is a lead

Customers write about their orders, and some visitors leave without contact details. KO counts as a lead only a new chat where the person left an email or phone. Other chats do not enter the funnel.

The chat does not know which ad brought the person

Intercom sees the page, but it does not know the KO visit and its campaign. The KO tracker on the page passes the visit ID to Intercom. Then a chat lead comes with the same source as a form lead. Without the visit ID, the chat counts in the "no source" share above the Leads journal.

The person came back and wrote a week later

If the person comes back in the same browser, Intercom knows them. Then KO links the chat to the earlier visit. On another device, the person comes as a new visitor with no history.

FAQ

Common questions

There is no date. We connect it when clients need it. Click "I need this integration", and we will tell you how we can connect it for your project.

If the CRM gets the contact with source tags, leads come to KO through the CRM integration. You need this integration when chats do not reach the CRM or come without a campaign.
