Who can use Live Chat Assistance?
Access to Live Chat Assistance varies based on day and time, your product and/or warranty or support plan. If you see a message that chat is closed or missing, it is after hours or you selected a category of chat that is included in a Sage Business Care plan subscription and requires a prior login onto the Sage Customer Portal.
Customer Service Live Chat assistance is free for everyone and provides non-product support assistance.

How do I log on to access Customer Support Features included in my Sage Business Care plan?
Sage Customer Portal Access:
Sage Customer Portal accounts are now utilized to enable Live Chat Assistance or submission of Online Technical Product Question cases. If you don’t currently have a Sage Customer Portal account set-up, you will have the option to create an account associated with your new ten-digit Sage Customer Account ID, which starts with the number 4 (i.e., in format of 400xxxxxxx).
Sage 50 customers with a warranty or Sage Business Care plan subscription can log onto the Sage Customer Portal to access these features. Unless you log on, Customer Support related features on the portal will not be available to you. Please see the Frequently Asked Questions featured on the Sage Customer Portal for further assistance for logging on to your account.
You can verify if you are logged on by looking at the “Welcome” greeting followed by your name within the banner at the top of the Sage Customer Portal. If the “Welcome” greeting is followed by the word “Guest”, you are not logged on to your account and Customer Support related features will not be available to you.
