## **The Ben Help Centre**

Our Help Centre is your first stop for support, offering detailed guides for every aspect of the platform:

- 💳 [The Ben Card](https://help.thanksben.com/en/collections/2746633-the-ben-card) \- Card management resources
- ➕ [My Benefits](https://help.thanksben.com/en/collections/3400704-my-benefits) \- Information about core benefits

- 🔗 [The Admin Portal](https://help.thanksben.com/en/collections/3401961-the-admin-portal) \- Admin centre usage guides

## **Employee vs Admin Access**

Our platform automatically detects your role and provides appropriate access:

**Employee Features:**
- Submit personal support requests  
- Access chat support  
- Track personal conversation history  
- View employee-specific help articles

**Admin Features:**
- View all company tickets (at special request)  
- Set ticket priorities  
- Add affected employees  
- Access admin-specific resources  
- View detailed ticket information

## **Chat Support for Employees**

Employees can access our chat support directly through the Ben platform:
1. Click the **?** help icon (question mark in a circle) in the navigation bar
2. Select " **Contact support**"
3. Look for support options in the bottom right corner
4. Click " **Send us a message**" to start a conversation

Our intelligent Ben bot is available to help resolve common queries quickly and efficiently. If you need to speak with a member of our support team, simply click "Talk to a person" during your chat session.

**Quick Tip:** The Ben bot is trained on our platform's features and common support queries, making it a fast way to get answers to straightforward questions.

Please note: this feature is not available for Admins as Admin Tickets bypass the bot.

## **Creating Support Tickets**

To submit a support request as an Admin:
1. Click the **?** help icon (question mark in a circle) in the navigation bar
2. Select " **Contact support**"
3. Select " **Create a ticket**"

   - Issue title and description  
   - Affected employees (admin only)  
   - Priority level (admin only)  
   - Supporting screenshots
5. Click " **Create ticket**"

## **Support Portal Features**

As an admin, while chat support is available, we recommend creating a support ticket for complex issues that require:
- In-depth investigation or troubleshooting
- Multiple team member involvement
- Documentation of the resolution process
- Tracking of company-wide issues

The support portal provides:
- Intelligent user detection (Admin/Employee)
- Customised support experiences
- Direct ticket creation
- Ticket tracking and management

## **Enterprise Support**

Enterprise tier customers receive additional support through a dedicated Customer Success Manager, who can assist with:
- Platform feature additions
- Benefit program expansion
- Commercial inquiries
- Urgent escalations
- Strategic platform optimisation
