Free group chat with Minnit Chat. Assign moderators to watch the chat while you're away. Custom backgrounds. No limit to number of users.
Minnit Chat is an easy-to-use group chat service. You can appoint moderators to watch over your chat, customize the look and feel of your chat, and increase engagement by having your users be able to talk to one another in real time!
Configure the chatroom to use Single Sign-On, and users who load the chat will automatically be logged in using their WordPress accounts. No need for additional sign-ups, onboarding, or any other steps — your users can get chatting right away!
Many other features can be enabled or disabled, including support for sending GIFs, uploading files, direct messaging between users, and more.
