Live Web Chat Agent – Remote Support Role – $25–$35/Hour – No Experience Necessary – Remote Overnight Jobs
Role Overview
We are hiring Live Web Chat Agents for remote overnight shifts. This entry-level, text-based role offers $25–$35 per hour and does not require a college degree or any prior work experience. If you're looking for overnight remote jobs where you can work independently and without voice calls, this is a great opportunity. You'll be providing real-time customer support through written communication—completing all tasks from the comfort of your home, during hours that align with quiet, focused work.
The Client & What You’ll Be Doing
Our client is a support solutions provider for subscription-based brands, ecommerce businesses, and digital service companies. Their clients offer products across categories such as wellness, tech, education, and household goods. As a Live Web Chat Agent, you’ll respond to customer inquiries through a real-time chat interface and an email-based helpdesk. Common requests include billing questions, product returns, tracking updates, login issues, and plan cancellations. You’ll use internal tools and written documentation to guide your responses, ensuring fast, professional, and friendly support—entirely without phone interaction.
Primary Job Tasks
Manage incoming chats from customers during your overnight shift, providing fast, accurate, and personable support for product and account issues.
Respond to support tickets received through the email queue, resolving concerns related to billing, password resets, and order updates.
Navigate the CRM platform to review customer history, enter detailed case notes, and ensure seamless handoff to the next shift when necessary.
Use approved templates and macros to streamline responses, while adapting tone and language to match the customer's situation.
Follow ticket categorization protocols to support reporting, escalation, and long-term service improvements.
Maintain response-time goals (generally under 60 seconds for chat and 30 minutes for email) while managing multiple conversations concurrently.
Alert shift leads to any unusual customer behavior, technical issues, or account problems that fall outside normal procedures.
Stay informed on policy updates, shipping delays, or product recalls by checking shift announcements at the beginning of each work period.
Submit an end-of-shift report noting unresolved tickets, common problems, or key updates needed for the morning team.
Participate in optional feedback sessions and peer mentorship to develop your writing, tone, and efficiency.
Flag any broken links or outdated content in the knowledge base and help center during live support interactions.
Manage 3–4 chat sessions alongside email tickets without sacrificing quality or professionalism in your responses.
A Typical Shift Breakdown
Early in Your Shift
Log into your dashboard, open Slack to check for updates, and begin by reviewing rollover cases from the previous day. You’ll respond to any urgent email tickets before the live chat queue begins to fill.
Mid-Shift Workload
During peak hours (often midnight to 4 a.m. local time), you’ll manage live chat conversations while resolving pending email cases. You’ll move quickly between tabs, responding to common support issues with clarity, care, and adherence to brand tone.
Wrapping Up
As traffic slows near the end of your shift, you’ll finalize outstanding tickets, prepare handoff notes, and submit your daily summary. You’ll also note any customer patterns or recurring issues that may require team-wide attention.

Tips for Performing at a High Level
Writing & Typing Fluency
Your responses are your voice—your ability to write clearly and warmly makes a big difference. Type confidently, proofread often, and take pride in clean, grammatically correct replies.
Learning Product Details
Each client provides an internal knowledge base with common questions, product specs, and refund policies. Your job is to reference these accurately and quickly during active chats.
Written Tone and Customer Care
Tone is critical. Use soft, helpful language, especially with upset customers. Always acknowledge their frustration and reassure them that you’re taking action to help.
Managing Live Workload
When juggling multiple chats, stay calm and use templates as a base. Still, tailor each response to ensure the customer feels seen and understood.
Handling Remote Independence
You’ll work unsupervised at night. Set yourself up in a quiet space, eliminate distractions, and stick to your shift schedule. Ask for help when needed—but rely on documentation first.
Growing With Feedback

Getting Started with the Client
Initial Application

Ongoing Work Assignment
Once you complete the trial period, you’ll receive a permanent schedule. Bonuses, cross-training, and advancement are available after 30 days of consistent performance.
Workplace Environment
This client prioritizes autonomy, writing excellence, and asynchronous communication. Team members check in via Slack, with minimal live meetings. You’ll work alongside a global team of writers, agents, and editors. Most communication—including coaching and reviews—is written.
