# Stop leaving customers waiting on WhatsApp. Route every request to the right team — EliteTeQ Inbox for microfinance institutions, SACCOs, lenders and fintechs in Hong Kong

**Customers ask about loan products, account questions and complaints on the same WhatsApp number. One team can’t keep up, and complaints sit beside new sales enquiries.**

EliteTeQ Inbox lets your sales, customer service and complaints teams answer from one shared workspace. Each request has an owner, each department can have its own number, and you can see how fast customers get an answer. Staff in Kowloon and Hong Kong Island or anywhere else answer from one +852 business number, with office hours on Hong Kong time (HKT).

- Loan and account product questions
- Service requests
- Complaints
- Branch and agent information

## Sound familiar? What financial services teams in Hong Kong tell us

> Product enquiries and complaints all arrive on one number, and nothing is routed.

Give sales and service their own numbers and teams, or tag chats with categories and pass them on with a note.

> We can’t tell how long customers wait for an answer.

Reports show first-reply time, the busiest hours and how each staff member is doing.

> Loan enquiries from our ads get answered days later.

Ad leads arrive flagged hot with the ad’s name, and each one is assigned to a loan officer.

*Every enquiry is a customer deciding where to spend. Don’t let yours wait.*

## EliteTeQ Inbox in Hong Kong

EliteTeQ Inbox works for microfinance institutions, SACCOs, lenders and fintechs in Hong Kong on your existing +852 WhatsApp Business number. Customers see your business name as they do today, and your team answers from Kowloon and Hong Kong Island or anywhere else.

In Hong Kong, WhatsApp is the everyday messaging app, and customers use it to book, ask and reorder. EliteTeQ Inbox lets a shop or service team share one number without stepping on each other’s replies.

Customers in Hong Kong write in Cantonese and English. Your team replies in the customer’s language inside the 24-hour window; template messages are created in English.

Office hours are set day by day for each number. A common setup in Hong Kong: weekdays open, Saturday mornings open, Sunday closed. Anyone who writes while you are closed gets your away message, at most once every 12 hours, and the chat waits at the top of the list for the morning.

- **Office hours:** Run on Hong Kong time (HKT)
- **Weekend:** Saturday and Sunday
- **Templates:** English
- **Price:** From $29 a month, in US dollars
- **Paying:** Card, charged in Kenyan shillings at the day’s rate

## Selling on WhatsApp in Hong Kong

Customers in Hong Kong pay with Octopus, FPS, PayMe, AlipayHK, cards and cash, so when a sale closes on WhatsApp the customer may confirm payment in the chat, and your team needs to see that message quickly.

## Questions businesses ask us

**Is there a WhatsApp CRM for financial services in Hong Kong?**

Yes. Financial services teams in Hong Kong use EliteTeQ Inbox with their own +852 WhatsApp Business number. Staff in Kowloon, Hong Kong Island or anywhere else answer from their own logins, customers write in Cantonese and English, and office hours run on Hong Kong time (HKT). Plans start at $29 a month with a 7-day free trial.

**Does EliteTeQ Inbox meet banking compliance rules?**

It is not certified for banking or payment-card regulation. Access tokens are stored encrypted and each person signs in with their own login and role, but you should never collect PINs, passwords or card numbers over chat, and you should check your regulator’s rules before use.

**Can it connect to our core banking system?**

No ready-made integration. The EliteTeQ API (in early access) lets your developers add contacts, move them through stages and send approved templates.

**Can managers see every conversation?**

Owners and Admins manage the team and settings, and reports show each staff member’s activity and reply speed.

**Can several staff use the same WhatsApp number?**

Yes. Everyone signs in with their own login, on a computer or phone, and each chat is assigned to one person. The WhatsApp Business app on your phone can stay connected.

**How much does it cost?**

Starter is $29 a month for 1 WhatsApp number and 3 people, Growth $59 for 2 numbers and 6 people, and Business $99 for 3 numbers and unlimited people. Every plan starts with a 7-day free trial.
