Support-desk first, COD recovery secondary
DelightChat centers on a shared helpdesk; COD confirmation and RTO reporting are lighter, add-on-feeling capabilities.
English-first, no Arabic-first RTL
Templates, onboarding, and support are English-led, not built for Gulf buyers.
No native Zid or Salla
Built around Shopify, not the platforms most UAE and KSA stores run on.
USD pricing
Billed in USD rather than transparent AED/SAR for GCC merchants.
