Why Gorgias + Chatarmin?

WhatsApp marketing alongside Gorgias support. Without per-ticket costs.

WhatsApp Marketing Next to Gorgias

Gorgias can't do WhatsApp broadcasts. Chatarmin can: newsletters, abandoned cart flows, campaigns. Gorgias stays your support tool.

Gorgias receives WhatsApp messages as tickets. But: no broadcasts, no campaigns, no automated marketing flows, no A/B testing, no revenue attribution. Chatarmin adds exactly that. You don't need to replace Gorgias.

No Per-Ticket Cost Problem

Chatarmin marketing flows don't create Gorgias tickets. Support replies count as tickets, but marketing messages don't.

Gorgias charges per ticket. WhatsApp marketing messages via Chatarmin are NOT counted as Gorgias tickets. Only when a customer replies to a marketing message with a support question does a Gorgias ticket get created. The marketing campaign itself only costs Meta fees (~11 cents per message).

Or: armincx as Alternative

Want to replace Gorgias entirely? armincx replaces Gorgias with real AI actions and flat-rate pricing. No ticket costs.

You have two options: Option 1: Keep Gorgias, add Chatarmin for WhatsApp marketing. Option 2: Replace Gorgias with armincx and have marketing + support in one system. Both paths start with Chatarmin. The decision to replace Gorgias comes later.

What Can the Gorgias WhatsApp Integration Do?

Chatarmin adds WhatsApp marketing to Gorgias. Your support continues to run through Gorgias, your WhatsApp marketing campaigns run through Chatarmin. Both systems can use the same WhatsApp number. No migration, no either-or.

From 282 sales calls with Gorgias users we know: 48% use Klaviyo simultaneously, most operate Shopify stores. The typical setup is Shopify + Klaviyo + Gorgias. Chatarmin adds WhatsApp marketing as a fourth building block to this stack.

WhatsApp Marketing Alongside Gorgias

The setup works like the Zendesk coexistence: Gorgias processes incoming support inquiries via WhatsApp (tickets, conversations, macros). Chatarmin sends outbound marketing messages via WhatsApp (newsletters, campaigns, flows). Meta technically distinguishes between marketing and service messages. Both systems work in parallel on the same number.

For Gorgias users this is particularly relevant because Gorgias itself doesn't offer WhatsApp marketing. Gorgias is a helpdesk. Newsletters, abandoned cart flows, winback campaigns, revenue attribution and A/B testing are completely missing. Chatarmin fills this gap.

The Cost Problem: Gorgias Charges Per Ticket

A point Gorgias users know well: Gorgias charges per ticket. Every customer interaction costs. This includes Instagram messages that are automatically created as tickets. The more customer volume, the more expensive Gorgias gets.

WhatsApp marketing replies that come through Chatarmin and land as Gorgias tickets would further increase these costs. That's why the Chatarmin + Gorgias combination is a deliberate stepping stone. Many customers start with the coexistence and evaluate in parallel the switch to armincx, which has no per-ticket costs.

With armincx the cost advantage is factor 5 to 15 compared to manually processed Gorgias tickets. For shops with 500 to 2,000 tickets per month, this difference adds up to thousands of euros.

How to use Gorgias + WhatsApp

Three scenarios your team can use from day one.

Keep Q4 Costs Down

Marketing messages via Chatarmin don't create Gorgias tickets. Only support replies count. Your ticket volume doesn't rise from marketing.

Keep Q4 Costs Down

Switch to armincx

Want to fully leave Gorgias? armincx replaces Gorgias with AI actions in Shopify and flat-rate pricing. No ticket-based pricing.

Switch to armincx

Who Benefits from This Combination?

Any team that wants to keep Gorgias for support and build WhatsApp as a marketing channel. Especially when a full switch to armincx isn't on the table right now.

Typical scenarios:

  • Shopify shops on Gorgias that want to start WhatsApp marketing immediately without canceling Gorgias.
  • Teams with Q4 cost problems that want to launch marketing flows without increasing Gorgias ticket volume.
  • Shops with complex Gorgias setups where a switch is too risky. WhatsApp marketing via Chatarmin is independent of the support stack.
  • Teams that want to test armincx gradually. Start with marketing via Chatarmin. Later optionally switch support to armincx.

The Alternative: Switch from Gorgias to armincx Entirely

If you don't just want to add marketing but replace Gorgias entirely, armincx is the alternative. armincx replaces Gorgias with real AI actions in Shopify, flat-rate pricing, and a personal, dedicated Customer Success Manager.

The advantage: No per-ticket pricing model. armincx works with flat-rate and variable AI credits. In Q4, you pay the same as in January. Plus real backend actions: cancellations, refunds, and address changes directly in Shopify. Everything Gorgias macros can't do.

You don't have to decide today. Start with Chatarmin for WhatsApp marketing and evaluate armincx for support when you're ready.

What Does the Gorgias WhatsApp Integration Cost?

The Chatarmin integration is included from the Smarter plan. Plus Meta fees per WhatsApp message: approximately 11 cents per marketing message in DE. Chatarmin passes Meta costs through 1:1.

Your Gorgias subscription stays unchanged. Marketing messages via Chatarmin create no additional Gorgias tickets. Only support replies from customers count as tickets. Your Gorgias bill stays stable.

For comparison: if you try WhatsApp marketing without Chatarmin and all interactions arrive as Gorgias tickets, costs explode. With Chatarmin, marketing stays separate from the ticket system.
