Merchant Support

Support Ticketing System

Deliver exceptional merchant support with intelligent ticket routing, priority management, and team collaboration.

Organized Support at Scale

Great merchant relationships depend on responsive, organized support. Pulse CRM's ticketing system gives your team the tools to manage every merchant inquiry, from simple questions to complex compliance issues, with full context and accountability. Instead of scattered emails and lost spreadsheets, every request is captured, tracked, and measured against the service levels your merchants expect.

Integrated with your CRM data and rules engine, tickets are automatically enriched with merchant details and can trigger workflows based on type, priority, or custom conditions. When a merchant submits a support request, your team sees the full picture immediately—application history, processing volume, open compliance items, and every prior interaction—so they can respond with confidence and resolve issues on the first touch.

Key Features

Ticket Management & Tracking

Create, assign, and track support tickets across your entire merchant portfolio. Every ticket captures the full context including merchant details, conversation history, and related applications so your team can resolve issues faster.

Intelligent Routing & Assignment

Automatically route tickets to the right team or individual based on ticket type, merchant category, priority level, or custom rules. Round-robin and load-balanced assignment ensures even workload distribution.

Ticket Types & Categories

Organize tickets by type—support requests, merchant inquiries, compliance issues, technical problems, and more. Custom categories let you tailor the system to match your organization's workflow.

Priority Levels & SLA Tracking

Set priority levels from low to critical with configurable SLA targets for each. Track response times, resolution times, and SLA compliance with built-in reporting to ensure your team meets service commitments.

Bulk Operations

Handle high-volume ticket management with bulk actions—reassign, close, update priority, or change status for multiple tickets at once. Essential for managing merchant support at scale.

Team Collaboration

Internal notes, @mentions, and team assignment make it easy for multiple team members to collaborate on complex tickets. Full activity history ensures nothing gets lost between handoffs.

Support Team Using Ticketing System

Who Benefits Most From Pulse CRM Ticketing

Pulse CRM's ticketing system is built for the teams and organizations that need structured, accountable merchant support:

  • ISOs managing support for hundreds or thousands of merchants
  • Operations teams tracking compliance inquiries, technical issues, and billing questions
  • Managers who need SLA reporting and team performance metrics for support
  • Organizations using multiple processors who need unified ticket management
  • Teams transitioning from email/spreadsheet support to a structured system

How Ticketing Works

From the moment a merchant reaches out to the final resolution report, every step is tracked and measured.

1

Ticket Created

A ticket is created manually by your team, automatically from an inbound email, or triggered by a rule in the automation engine. Merchant context and related records are attached instantly.

2

Categorized & Prioritized

Each ticket is assigned a type, category, and priority level. SLA timers begin counting based on the priority configuration, so your team knows exactly how long they have to respond and resolve.

3

Routed to Team

Intelligent routing assigns the ticket to the right person or team based on ticket type, merchant segment, workload balance, or custom rules you define in the rules engine.

4

Collaborated & Resolved

Team members collaborate through internal notes, @mentions, and status updates. The full conversation thread, merchant details, and activity history are visible in a single view until the issue is resolved.

5

Tracked & Reported

Every ticket contributes to your reporting dashboard. Track SLA compliance, average resolution time, ticket volume trends, and individual team performance to continuously improve your support operation.

Ticket Management Interface

From First Ticket to Thousands

Pulse CRM's ticketing system is designed to grow with your organization. Whether you're an ISO just starting to formalize support processes or managing a team that handles hundreds of tickets each week, the same tools work at every scale. Bulk operations let your team reassign, close, or re-prioritize dozens of tickets in a single action. Automated routing ensures new tickets land with the right person without manual triage.

As your merchant portfolio expands, ticket volume naturally increases. Pulse CRM gives you the visibility to anticipate staffing needs, identify recurring issues that could be resolved with better documentation or process changes, and maintain response quality even as volume grows.

SLA-Driven Accountability

Every ticket priority level comes with configurable SLA targets for both first response and full resolution. Your team sees real-time countdown timers on every open ticket, so they always know which issues need attention first. When an SLA is at risk, automated escalation rules can notify managers or reassign the ticket to ensure nothing breaches.

SLA reporting gives managers a clear picture of team performance over time. Track compliance rates by priority level, team member, ticket category, or time period. Use these metrics to set realistic targets, identify bottlenecks, and demonstrate the value of your support operation to stakeholders and merchant partners.

Deliver Better Merchant Support

Give your team the tools to provide fast, organized support that keeps merchants happy and reduces churn. Pulse CRM's ticketing system scales with your portfolio.
