Template E-commerce Operations bundles a ready-to-deploy workspace for support workflows. Install in one click from the Aerostack dashboard or via aerostack init --template=ecommerce-operations.

What does E-commerce Operations do?

E-commerce Operations is a 3-bot team that handles customer order inquiries on WhatsApp. An Order Manager handles general order questions, a Payment Specialist resolves billing issues using Stripe, and a Shipping Tracker manages delivery logistics.

Customers message you on WhatsApp about their order — the right specialist responds instantly.

What's included

3 pre-configured bots:

  • Order Manager — Order status, modifications, product questions, general FAQ
  • Payment Specialist — Failed charges, refunds, card declines, billing disputes via Stripe
  • Shipping Tracker — Delivery tracking, address changes, shipping issues, courier coordination

2 keyword routing rules + 1 fallback:

  • Payment issues (payment, charge, refund, card, declined, billing) → Payment Specialist
  • Shipping questions (shipping, tracking, delivery, address, courier, package) → Shipping Tracker
  • General orders → Order Manager

4 MCP integrations: WhatsApp, Stripe, Supabase, SendGrid

How it works

Every WhatsApp message goes through the Order Manager first. Payment-related keywords trigger a handoff to the Payment Specialist, which can look up transactions and process refunds via Stripe. Shipping questions go to the Shipping Tracker, which checks fulfillment status in Supabase and sends tracking updates via SendGrid.

When to use this template

  • You serve customers on WhatsApp
  • You process payments through Stripe
  • You need separate handling for payment vs. shipping inquiries
  • You want automated refund and tracking workflows
