What the AI does with Walmart messages
Replies built on the real order
When a buyer asks where an order is, the draft quotes the order and tracking status your store holds instead of a template.
15 languages each way
Incoming messages are translated for you, and replies are drafted in the buyer's language.
Nothing is sent without you
The AI drafts; you confirm in the workbench and the reply goes to the buyer. Auto-reply rules can take recurring questions under conditions you set.

FAQ
Does Niceggie AI Customer Service work with Walmart Marketplace?
Yes. Walmart buyer messages arrive through your linked support mailbox, and store authorization adds the order data the AI drafts from.
Where do I find the Walmart Client ID and Client Secret?
In Walmart Seller Center, under the Developer Portal's API Key Management page. Use a Production key, not Sandbox, with every permission checked; the Client ID and Client Secret are two different values.
Will the AI keep me inside Walmart's 48-hour window?
The AI drafts as soon as a message arrives, so a reply is waiting when you open the workbench. Meeting the window still depends on someone confirming it, or on an auto-reply rule you set for routine questions.
Does the AI reply to Walmart buyers automatically?
Not by default. The AI drafts and you confirm in the workbench before anything is sent. Auto-reply rules can answer recurring questions without you, under conditions you set: channel, store, inquiry type, buyer sentiment and hours.
