ManyChat offers its Chat Marketing software pro bono to help protect our global community

ManyChat, the number one Chat Marketing platform, has partnered with Messenger from Facebook to connect the public to government health organizations and UN health agencies actively supporting COVID-19 response efforts. ManyChat is offering free Pro upgrades for the duration of the crisis and has built specific templates to help these health organizations effectively share timely and accurate information with citizens around the globe.

This free program, designed to scale the response to the crisis, will help automate responses to commonly asked questions and speed up response times, alleviating excessive hold times with state and federal call centers. ManyChat is showing these government health organizations and UN health agencies how to share important updates with their audience effectively, and how to seamlessly transition from automated conversations to chatting with a live person when necessary.
