Marketing & EmailUSA chat in Intercom turns into a lead in your CRM, and the manager sees the deal, the payments and the support history in one card
Intercom is where your site visitors and users write to you: the chat widget, the inbox, the help articles and the outbound messages live there. Sales and payments, though, live in the CRM and the billing system. We connect Intercom to your systems so the two sides stop being separate worlds: a new chat becomes a lead in the CRM, the manager's answer in the CRM shows up in the Intercom conversation, and events from your product — signed up, paid, plan changed — reach Intercom and drive its messages. Support sees the client's deals, sales sees the support history, and nobody copies contacts between the two by hand.
Before the support agent answers in Intercom, decides the person is a potential client and creates a lead in the CRM by hand — or forgets to.
After a new conversation with a new contact creates a lead in the CRM with a link to the chat, and the sales manager picks it up without asking support to forward anything.
Before the client paid yesterday, but Intercom still shows them a message about the trial ending, because the payment lives in another system.
After the payment in the CRM or the billing system goes to Intercom as an event on the contact, the onboarding series starts, and the trial reminder stops.
Before the manager calls a client to offer an upgrade, unaware that the same client has an open complaint in Intercom since Monday.
After the CRM card shows the open conversations and their status, and the Intercom contact shows the deal stage and the plan, so both teams talk to the client knowing the whole picture.
Before to answer a question from the chat the manager opens Intercom, finds the conversation, writes the reply and then notes it in the CRM.
After the reply written in the CRM goes into the Intercom conversation on behalf of the manager, and the client's answer comes back into the same card.

The Intercom REST API is the core building block of the platform: through it an integration reads and updates the data of its own workspace — contacts, conversations, events.

Source: developers.intercom.com ↗ checked 2026-09-28Contacts in Intercom are leads and users; they can be created through the API and searched by attribute values, for example by email or an external identifier.
Source: developers.intercom.com ↗ checked 2026-09-28A reply to a conversation through the API can be sent as an admin, as the contact, or as an internal note for the team.

Source: developers.intercom.com ↗ checked 2026-09-28Intercom workspaces are hosted in three regions — US, EU and Australia; the EU and Australian regions use their own API base addresses.
Source: developers.intercom.com ↗ checked 2026-09-28Intercom limits how many requests can be made in a window of time, so bulk operations — importing a large contact base, syncing history — are done in batches on a schedule rather than in one go; the exact limits for your workspace are visible in the developer settings, and we plan the load around them. The list of events Intercom sends to the connection is switched on by hand in the Developer Hub, so an administrator on your side takes part in the setup. A contact created a moment ago may not be found by search for a few minutes, which is why the connection remembers Intercom's own identifier of the contact instead of searching again. The test workspace Intercom gives developers is limited to the US region and a small number of contacts, so the final check is always done on your real workspace. Event details sent to Intercom must be flat values, without nested structures.
Three steps from a first message to work on your project.
Describe the task in the form — in text or by voice. Budget and timing are optional.
A developer studies the brief, asks about anything unclear and sends an estimate.
Once scope and price are agreed, the work begins.
