Abstract

Embodiments of the invention provide for systems, devices, apparatus, methods, and computer program products for providing contact information via a computer network in response to activating an activatable indicium on a user interface. The activatable indicium integrates and provides the contact information for multiple channels of an entity along with statistical information for multiple contact options associated with each channel, and thus enables a user to contact an agent associated with the entity in a faster, more efficient, and better informed manner.
