🧰 How to Report a Technical Issue to SauceyDirect

What information to gather to report a tech issue

Updated over 6 months ago

If you or one of your customers experiences a technical issue on SauceyDirect — such as problems with account creation, login, or placing an order — our Support Team can help resolve it as quickly as possible.

To do that efficiently, it’s important to include as much detail as possible when you report the issue.


📩 Where to Report an Issue

You can report a technical issue by emailing merchant-support@sauceydirect.com or by clicking the 🔍 icon in the top right corner of your Merchant Dashboard.

When submitting an issue, please include the details below so we can diagnose and fix the problem faster.


🧾 Information to Include

To help us troubleshoot accurately, please provide the following information in your report:

1. Customer Information

If the issue involves a specific customer (for example, they’re unable to log in or complete checkout), please include:

  • Full Name

  • Phone Number

  • Email Address (as used on their SauceyDirect account)

This helps our team locate the customer’s profile and view order or account logs.


2. Description of the Issue

Explain exactly what happened in as much detail as possible.
Include:

  • What the user was trying to do (e.g., “create an account,” “add item to cart,” “submit payment,” etc.)

  • What stage of the process the issue occurred (e.g., “after clicking ‘Submit Order,’” or “during ID verification”)

  • What error message appeared (if any)

  • Whether the issue occurred on desktop or mobile browser

Example:
“Customer was on mobile Safari, trying to check out after adding products to cart. After clicking ‘Place Order,’ the page froze and never confirmed payment.”


3. Screen Recordings or Screenshots

Visuals are extremely helpful for our support and development teams to understand the issue.
Whenever possible, please include:

  • A screen recording showing what happened leading up to the problem

  • A screenshot of any error messages or blank pages

Pro Tip: On most devices, you can take a quick screen recording by pressing:

  • iPhone: Control Center → Screen Record

  • Android: Swipe down → Screen Record

  • Computer: Apple → Command+Shift+5, Windows → Windows+Alt+R

Attach these files directly to your email.


4. Merchant and Store Details

If the issue occurred on your store’s site or dashboard, please include:


🕐 What Happens Next

Once your report is submitted:

  1. Our Support Team will review your message and replicate the issue if possible.

  2. If it’s a known or system-wide issue, we’ll confirm and provide an estimated resolution timeline.

  3. If the issue is isolated, we’ll work directly with you to gather additional details or log data as needed.
