Open your agent and select **Deploy** to see every channel where it can be active. Each channel has its own settings, and you can turn each one on or off with its switch.

| Channel | What it is | Plan |
| --- | --- | --- |
| [Web Widget](/docs/deployments/web-widget/installation) | A chat bubble on your website. | All plans |
| [Public Chat](/docs/deployments/public-chat/general-settings) | A hosted chat page with its own link. No website needed. | All plans |
| [WhatsApp](/docs/deployments/whatsapp/connecting-whatsapp) | Customers message your agent on WhatsApp. | Starter and above |

If a channel isn't included in your plan, select **Upgrade** next to it to see your options.

## Add the web widget to your website

Publishing your agent turns on the web widget. To show it on your site:

1. **Copy the embed code**

    Go to **Deploy → Web Widget** and copy the embed code. It looks like this:

    ```html
    <script src="https://my.chatvox.co/embed.js" data-agent-id="<your-agent-id>"></script>
    ```

2. **Paste it into your site**

    Add the code to your website's HTML, on every page where the chat should appear.

See [Web Widget installation](/docs/deployments/web-widget/installation) for platform-specific steps.

### On WordPress

On a WordPress site, you can use the free [Chatvox plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/chatvox/) instead of editing code:

1. **Install the plugin**

    In your WordPress admin, go to **Plugins → Add New Plugin**, search for **Chatvox**, then select **Install Now** and **Activate**.

2. **Copy your Agent ID**

    In Chatvox, go to **Deploy → Web Widget** and select **Copy Agent ID**.

3. **Connect your agent**

    Open the Chatvox plugin's settings page in WordPress, paste your Agent ID, and save. The chat bubble appears on your site.

## Share a public chat link

Turn on **Public Chat** to get a link to a hosted chat page. Select the open-chat icon next to it to view the page, then share the link with your customers. To show the chat on a page of your own website instead, see [Embed the chat on a page](/docs/deployments/public-chat/general-settings#embed-the-chat-on-a-page).
