Workflows

Shipping Only workflow

Learn how the Shipping Only workflow works in Interlinked — a retail workflow where the AI collects shipping addresses, calculates costs, and processes bank transfer payments for delivery orders.

When to use this workflow

Choose Shipping Only if your business delivers products but does not offer in-store pickup. This is the right workflow for online-only stores, ecommerce businesses, or any operation where every order is shipped to the customer’s address.

How the AI handles conversations

When a customer contacts your business, the AI follows this conversation flow:

  1. Greet the customer and help them find products from your catalog.
  2. Manage the cart — add items, adjust quantities, show the cart summary.
  3. Collect the shipping address — The AI asks for the customer’s email, postal code, street, city, house number, and neighborhood (colonia).
  4. Tell the customer the total amount — The product total plus the applicable shipping cost.
  5. Share your bank account number — The AI provides the bank details you configured so the customer can make a transfer.
  6. Ask for the transfer receipt — Once the customer sends a photo or screenshot of the transfer receipt, the AI processes it.
  7. Confirm the order — After receiving the receipt, the AI marks the order as paid and sends a confirmation email to both the business owner and the customer. The order then appears on the Orders page for tracking.

Note

The AI handles the entire order lifecycle — from product discovery to payment confirmation — without any human intervention. The business owner receives an email notification when a new order is placed.

Custom configuration steps

Delivery rules

  • Flat shipping rate — A fixed cost applied to all shipping orders (e.g., $80 MXN).
  • Free shipping threshold — The minimum order total that qualifies for free delivery. If a customer’s order exceeds this amount, shipping is free.

Bank accounts

  • Bank name — Your bank’s name (e.g., “BBVA”, “Banorte”).
  • Account holder name — The full name on the account.
  • 18-digit CLABE — The interbank account number for receiving transfers. The system validates the exact 18-digit format.

Important

Double-check your CLABE number before publishing. The AI will share this number with every customer who places an order. An incorrect CLABE means payments will go to the wrong account or fail entirely.

What to do next

After configuring delivery rules and bank accounts, continue to the shared steps: Upload your product catalog, Add business context, Connect channels, and Publish and go live.
