Answer the skip and swap questions before the next box ships

Subscribers write about skipping a month, changing their address or a box that arrived wrong, and the cut-off date is always close. Flatdesk collects those in one queue and answers the routine ones from your help center, at $49 per agent per month, or $39 billed yearly.

    Save your missing item, damaged box and late delivery replies as macros.

  • Assign by issue type

    Route billing, shipping and product issues to the right person.

  • A pre-ship auto-reply

  • Tags for churn reasons

Where it falls short

If you need these today, another help desk fits better.

  • No subscription billing or box scheduling. Keep those in your subscription platform.
  • No order editing from inside Flatdesk.
