Morphology

customer + support

The meaning 'assistance and advice provided to customers' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'customer' (buyer/user) with 'support' (aid). This is a straightforward noun+noun compound found across many languages and follows ordinary composition patterns, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents should understand it.

Etymology

Customer support comes from the simple words customer, meaning a person who buys, and support, meaning to help or hold up. Imagine someone at a help desk ready to help a buyer, so today customer support means 'help and advice a company gives to people who buy or use its products'.
