linkfliq vs LimeChat
linkfliq is the omnichannel alternative to LimeChat, one agent that replies on instagram, whatsapp, facebook, and your website using live store data, not scripted flows. built for indian D2C brands who want to sell and support in the same conversation, in the language their customer actually types in.
LimeChat is a WhatsApp-first conversational commerce platform for shopify brands, built around broadcasts, journeys, and a support helpdesk. linkfliq works the same channels, WhatsApp included, but starts from live shopify data instead of pre-built flows, covers instagram and web DMs from day one instead of as an upsell, and prices in a way that a ₹5L/month brand and a ₹1Cr/month brand can both actually afford.
why brands switch from LimeChat to linkfliq
one agent, live store data, not a flow builder
LimeChat's chatbot runs on journeys you configure: abandoned cart flows, order-confirmation sequences, click-based menus you build once and maintain forever. linkfliq's agent reads live shopify data directly, stock, order status, price, order history, so it answers "is this back in stock" or "where's my order" correctly without you having built a flow for that exact question. when your catalog changes, the agent already knows.
actually omnichannel, not WhatsApp-plus-addons
LimeChat's instagram and facebook support only unlock on its Pro plan ($399/mo) and above. linkfliq covers instagram, whatsapp, facebook, and your website from the entry plan, one inbox, one agent, one memory across all four.
built for how india actually messages
LimeChat's flows and chatbot are built and maintained in english. linkfliq's agent replies in english, hindi, hinglish, and regional languages, on the customer's terms, not yours.
outbound intelligence, not just broadcasts
LimeChat's marketing engine is broadcast-and-segment, you build the segment, you write the campaign, you send it. linkfliq's agent uses conversational data and buying patterns it already has, from support chats, cart activity, and order history, to decide who to reach and when, so outbound feels like a recommendation, not a blast.
pricing that starts where indian D2C actually starts
LimeChat's entry plan is $199/month (roughly ₹16,500), before Meta's WhatsApp charges and per-ticket overages stack on top. linkfliq starts at ₹599/month.
