When Checkouts Meet Approvals: Why This Combo Works
Let’s cut to the chase: Foxy.io handles your sales, but approvals? Those still suck. You’re probably forwarding emails, chasing down managers, or worse – letting big transactions slide through without oversight. That’s where ApproveThis comes in. We’re not here to replace Foxy (their checkout system kicks ass). We’re here to handle the messy human decisions that happen after someone clicks “buy.”
Think of it like this: Foxy.io moves money. ApproveThis moves decisions. Together, they turn “Hey, can someone approve this?” into a process that doesn’t make you want to scream into a Slack channel.
The Nuts and Bolts: Where Foxy Ends, ApproveThis Begins
Foxy’s great at taking payments. But what about when a customer wants to:
- Buy $50K in software licenses on credit?
- Get expedited shipping for a custom order?
- Access restricted downloads before payment clears?
That’s your team scrambling for spreadsheets and forwarded emails. ApproveThis adds guardrails without slowing things down. Here’s the playbook:
Trigger: Something happens in Foxy (big sale, new wholesale account, etc.) → Zapier shoves that data into ApproveThis → Your team gets a clear approve/deny task → Foxy automatically acts on the decision.
Real-World Use Cases (No Fluff Edition)
Use Case 1: The High-Risk Customer Check
Problem: Your sales team just onboarded a new wholesale buyer through Foxy. But your fraud system flags them. Now what? Cue the CC-all email thread.
Solution: Auto-create an approval request with all Foxy customer data. Finance reviews credit terms, legal checks the contract – all in one place. Approve, and Foxy unlocks their account. Deny, and they get a polite auto-email.
Who Uses This: B2B companies selling to other businesses. Stops your team from accidentally onboarding sketchy clients.
Use Case 2: The “Holy Crap, That’s a Big Order” Scenario
Problem: A customer just dropped $20K in your Foxy cart. Your policy requires CFO sign-off on orders over $15K. But the CFO’s in Bali for 2 weeks.
Solution: ApproveThis automatically:
- Routes to the CFO first
- When she’s offline, delegates to her VP
- Escalates to COO if no response in 24hrs
All while the customer sees “Your order is being processed” – not “We’re panicking.”
Use Case 3: Subscription Nightmares (Solved)
Problem: Customer wants to upgrade their plan mid-cycle with a custom discount. Support can’t approve that themselves.
Solution: The support rep clicks a button in Foxy → ApproveThis pings the sales director → Once approved, Foxy automatically prorates the subscription. No manual calculations. No “I thought you handled it!”
Department-Specific Wins
Finance Teams: Stop Being the Bad Guys
Instead of playing cop, set rules like:
“All Foxy transactions over $X need dual approval” or “New customers in [high-risk country] require manual review.” ApproveThis enforces it without you babysitting.
Sales Teams: Close Deals Faster
Ever lost a deal because approval took 3 days? Now, when a big Foxy order comes in:
1. Sales gets notified immediately
2. They can add context (“This client’s in final talks for 10x more!”)
3. Approvers see everything in one place
Decisions happen in hours, not days.
Operations: Kill the Manual Updates
Example: A customer’s custom order gets approved. Normally, you’d have to:
- Update Foxy inventory
- Notify shipping
- Email the client
With ApproveThis + Zapier? Approval triggers all that automatically. Your team stops being data entry clerks.
Setting This Up (It’s Not Rocket Science)
Here’s the 5-minute version:
1. Create a Zapier account (if you don’t have one)
2. Connect Foxy.io → Choose triggers (new customer, big transaction, etc.)
3. Connect ApproveThis → Set approval rules (who approves what)
4. Test with a $1 transaction
5. Go live
Pro Tip: Use ApproveThis’ calculated fields to auto-flag orders that need review. Like: “If order total > $15K and customer is new → require CFO approval.”
The Killer Feature Nobody Talks About
Your approvers don’t need Foxy.io logins. Huge for:
- Clients approving project budgets
- External vendors signing off on orders
- Execs who can’t be bothered to learn new software
They get an email, click approve/reject, and get back to their day. No licenses, no training, no BS.
Why This Isn’t Just Another Integration
Most approval tools make you choose: flexibility or simplicity. ApproveThis + Foxy.io gives you both:
- Custom workflows without coding
- Auto-approvals for routine stuff
- Escalations when things get stuck
- Audit trails that even your auditor will love
Example: A healthcare company uses this combo to approve custom medical device orders. Compliance gets reviewed, manufacturing gets notified – all before the client finishes their coffee.
Bottom Line: It’s About Control (Without the Micromanagement)
Foxy.io handles the money. ApproveThis handles the mayhem. Together, they let you:
- Approve big orders without bottlenecks
- Stop fraud before it happens
- Give customers instant updates (without lying)
- Look professional as hell
