Support questions about subscriptions

Flann reads subscriptions, customers, transactions and affiliates in Creem, so you can answer a customer's question from your phone.

"Am I still being charged?" is one of the most common support messages for a subscription product. The answer lives in Creem, and finding it means logging in and searching. Ask Flann for the customer's subscription and it reads the status and replies in the chat. You can reply to the customer with the facts in front of you.

Acting on a subscription

Flann can pause, resume, cancel, update or upgrade a subscription, refund a payment, and manage discounts, products and credit accounts in Creem.

Most subscription changes are one-line requests. A customer asks to pause for a month, upgrade, or cancel. A discount code is needed for a launch. Credit account operations such as freezing or debiting are covered as well. Flann maps the request to the right Creem action, and also creates a customer portal link when a customer wants to manage things themselves.

Repetitive Creem work Flann takes off your plate

These are the jobs that come back every day or every week. Message Flann instead, and keep the decisions for yourself.

Knowing which bills to pay

Today

Supplier bills arrive by email, post and WhatsApp, and only some of them make it into Creem. Due dates slip past and late fees follow.

With Flann

“List the supplier bills due before Friday in Creem and what we have in the bank.”

Straight from Creem, Flann lists the bills falling due, with the supplier, the amount and any that are already late, next to your current balance. You decide what to pay.

What you stop doing: Nobody has to keep due dates on a sticky note by the till.

A Monday look at the money

Today

On Monday mornings you want to know where the money stands, but the answer is spread across several screens in Creem. So you guess, and plan the week on a hunch.

With Flann

“How do we stand this week? Cash in, cash out and anything overdue.”

Reading Creem, Flann gives you a short picture of the week ahead: what is due in, what is due out and which invoices have just tipped into overdue. Nothing is changed.

What you stop doing: Planning the week no longer starts with guesswork.
