Connected Channels
Connected Channels present an easy way to link MoEngage with any customer interaction platform seamlessly. They support many channels, including messaging channels, ads/retargeting platforms, IVR/ support tools, chatbots, and more.
Connected channels offer the same functionality as other MoEngage channels, enabling you to integrate and use them effectively.

MoEngage supports the following pre-configured channels:
| Channel Type | Channel |
| Messaging Apps | |
| Retargeting |
Use Cases for Connected Channels
Here are some real-world scenarios where you can leverage connected channels to create personalized and timely customer interactions:
- Retargeting abandoned cart users: Use MoEngage to identify users who added items to their shopping cart but did not complete the purchase. You can then automatically send this user segment to a retargeting platform like Criteo Ads to show them personalized ads for the products they left behind.
- Real-time alerting: If a logistics company's user's package is delayed, you can trigger an event in MoEngage to send a real-time notification to the customer via a messaging app like Telegram.
- Customer support automation: When a user submits a Support Ticket event in your app, use MoEngage to send their user profile and event details to a support tool like Freshdesk. This automatically creates a new ticket in Freshdesk, providing your support team with all the necessary context
