What is Worldline Smart Engage?
A few important information good to know before using Worldline Smart Engage.
Worldline Smart Engage is a service provided by Worldline that allows you to conduct customer surveys using payment terminals. It is compatible with Ingenico and Castle payment terminals, enabling you to gather feedback during the check-out process. The Smart Engage service consists of two components:
- Smart Engage App: Automatically installed on your payment terminal after onboarding SmartPOS. It allows you to collect customer feedback through various survey formats.
- Back Office Online Service: Used for setting up surveys, managing campaign workflows, and analyzing the gathered data.
As a merchant, you can create surveys and campaigns through the back office, linking them to the terminals to initiate surveys. Depending on your campaign configuration, survey campaigns can run before or after the payment. The system supports a variety of survey question types and allows you to customize the flow of questions based on customer responses.

Screen Types:
- Yes/No: A straightforward two-option question format.

- Stars: A rating system that enables customers to evaluate experiences on a scale (e.g., 1 to 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐).

The respective screens may be combined into one flow using answer options referrals. For example, the answer Yes in the first screen may lead to screen 2 and the answer No may lead to screen 3 etc.

Defining delay between screens appearance
Creating first survey
The survey may be automated for screen appearance, meaning the screens will be displayed consecutively. Alternatively, the entire survey may automatically terminate (based on the provided scenario) if the user does not respond. Each screen may have a different delay (defined in seconds) after which the next screen will be displayed. The delay can be set anywhere from 0 to a maximum of 120 seconds. The delay establishes the maximum time allowed for answering the question.
