Remote Chat Customer Support Agent – No Degree or Experience Required – $25–$35/hr – Work from Home
Role Overview
A remote-first digital support agency is hiring Remote Chat Customer Support Agents to help manage the live chat and email communications for a subscription-based productivity platform. This is a true entry-level position with competitive pay of $25–$35 per hour, fully remote availability, and no requirement for prior customer service experience or a college degree. All communication is handled through text—no phone calls, Zoom meetings, or in-person contact.
The Client & What You’ll Be Doing
The client is a B2C software company serving individuals and small businesses with cloud-based tools for productivity, time management, and digital collaboration. As a Chat Customer Support Agent, you’ll assist users in real time with account recovery, billing changes, navigation help, and common troubleshooting steps. Your work will occur entirely through the client’s live chat interface and email ticketing system, allowing you to respond with empathy and precision while maintaining professionalism and brand tone.
Primary Job Tasks
Live Chat Interaction: Respond to incoming chat messages promptly and help customers resolve issues related to accounts, billing, subscription upgrades, or technical errors.
Email Ticket Support: Handle longer-form questions or non-urgent issues through structured email replies. Use templates when applicable, but customize each message with relevant context.
Customer Education: Guide customers through self-service options, product tutorials, and help documentation to foster independence.
Tagging and Ticket Management: Apply appropriate tags to each ticket, record summaries, and ensure all data is captured accurately for handoff or future audits.
Escalation Handling: Know when to escalate requests that are beyond your scope, such as technical malfunctions or policy disputes, to internal teams.
Internal Collaboration: Communicate with QA coaches, training leads, and peers using Slack or other team tools.
Macro and Template Updates: Contribute improvements to saved replies, identify gaps in support documentation, and raise patterns of recurring questions.
Time Management: Use your assigned hours efficiently by balancing live chats with email ticket resolution and participating in optional ongoing training.
Meet Support KPIs: Maintain strong performance in areas such as CSAT score, average handle time, and resolution rate.
A Typical Shift Breakdown
Early in Your Shift
Start by logging into your assigned support tools and checking for internal updates, macro changes, or known bugs. Begin working through older email tickets first before going live in the chat dashboard.
Mid-Shift Workload
You’ll engage in active chat coverage, often juggling multiple concurrent conversations. Most interactions will involve basic support tasks like updating billing information, providing subscription assistance, or explaining platform features.
Wrapping Up
Complete remaining open chats, pass unresolved issues to the next shift with detailed notes, and submit a short shift report summarizing your workload and any process improvement ideas.
Who We’re Looking For
Strong writing skills and conversational tone in written English
Minimum typing speed of 40 words per minute with high accuracy
High school diploma or GED (no college degree needed)
No prior customer service experience required—this is an entry-level role
Personal laptop or desktop and consistent high-speed internet
Comfortable using chat dashboards, help desks, and online platforms
Self-disciplined and able to manage time independently
Friendly and calm under pressure when dealing with frustrated users

Tips for Performing at a High Level
Writing & Typing Fluency
Keep your tone conversational but clear. Avoid jargon or robotic replies. Tools like Grammarly and Hemingway can help streamline your responses.
Learning Product Details
Use the first week to immerse yourself in the help center, product tutorials, and most-used macros. Speed and accuracy improve when you know the product inside out.
Written Tone and Customer Care
Always empathize first. Phrases like “Let me look into that for you” or “Thanks for your patience—here’s what we’ll do next” help de-escalate situations and build trust.
Managing Live Workload
Organize tabs and use keyboard shortcuts to streamline navigation between chat and help docs. Prioritize active chats and use timers to avoid delays.
Handling Remote Independence
Block distractions, stick to a shift routine, and check in with team channels for peer support or guidance.
Growing With Feedback
Review QA reports carefully. Keep a personal log of tips you receive and apply them immediately to your next batch of chats and tickets.
