When Payments Meet Approvals: Why This Combo Slaps

Let's get real – payment approvals suck when you're juggling spreadsheets, chasing down VPs in Slack, and playing CC tag in email threads. ApproveThis and Instamojo together? That's like giving your finance team a jetpack while keeping everyone else's feet firmly on the ground.

Instamojo handles the money moves – collecting payments, tracking success rates, spotting dropped transactions. ApproveThis does the adulting: routing decisions to the right people, auto-escalating when Bob from accounting is on vacation, and keeping a paper trail that won't make auditors cry. Connect them through Zapier, and you've got a self-running approval machine that works while your team sleeps.

Three Ways This Duo Saves Your Ass (And Your Sanity)

1. Kill Dropped Payment Limbo

Scenario: A customer starts paying through Instamojo but bails halfway. Your current process? Someone manually notices, hunts down the sales rep, then starts an email chain that dies in someone's promotions folder.

How it works now: Zapier triggers an ApproveThis workflow the second Instamojo flags a dropped payment. The request auto-routes to the sales lead with deal context, payment details, and a big red "FIX THIS" button (metaphorically speaking). Approvers get everything they need in one place – no digging through 12 tools.

Who cares: Ecommerce teams shipping physical goods. No more "Why did we ship 500 units to a dead payment?" moments. Retail chains managing in-store pickup orders. Automatically flag abandoned payments before items leave the warehouse.

2. Successful Payments That Actually Do Something

Scenario: Money hits the account, but now accounting needs to reconcile, fulfillment needs to ship, and customer success needs to onboard. Cue the spreadsheet updates and Slack pings.

Automation fix: Every Instamojo success triggers an approval chain in ApproveThis. Not just a notification – a structured workflow that:

  • Pings accounting to categorize the payment
  • Auto-approves standard shipments under $500
  • Flags high-value orders for manager review

Real world win: SaaS companies handling annual subscriptions. Instant approval triggers customer onboarding emails, license provisioning, and sales commission tracking – all before the receipt hits the client's inbox.

3. Post-Approval Momentum (No Human Drag)

Scenario: Payment gets approved, but now someone has to manually update the CRM, notify the client, and adjust the forecast. Crickets.

The fix: When ApproveThis finalizes a decision, Zapier kicks off the next Instamojo action. Approved a refund? Instamojo processes it automatically. Denied a discount request? CRM gets updated and the client gets a templated email – no emotional labor required.

Where this slaps: Agencies managing client retainers. Approve invoice payments in ApproveThis, auto-log them in Instamojo, and update project timelines in your PM tool – all while your account manager grabs another coffee.

Setting This Up Without Losing Your Mind

Zapier does the heavy lifting here. If you can order DoorDash, you can build this integration:

  1. Pick your trigger in Instamojo (new payment, dropped transaction, etc.)
  2. Choose ApproveThis as the action app
  3. Map the data fields once (payment ID → approval ticket, amount → calculated field, etc.)

Pro tip: Use ApproveThis' calculated fields to auto-flag payments over $10k for CFO review or apply tiered discount approvals based on deal size. Set approval thresholds so small fries get auto-approved while big deals hit the right desks.

Who Gets Their Life Changed

Finance Teams

No more playing detective across payment portals and email threads. Every decision lives in ApproveThis with full audit trails. Vacation delegation means approvals don't pile up when your controller's hiking in Patagonia.

Operations Managers

Sync Instamojo payment statuses with inventory systems and shipping queues. Auto-approve restock orders when payments clear, hold shipments when risk thresholds get tripped.

Sales Leaders

Ever miss a upsell because accounting took days to approve a custom quote? Now sales gets instant visibility into payment approvals tied to specific deals. Plus, approvers don't need Instamojo logins – just click a link in their inbox.

Why This Isn't Just Another Zap

Most approval tools make you choose between flexibility and control. ApproveThis gives both:

  • Email approvals that even your least techy vendor can handle
  • Conditional routing so $500 approvals don't waste your CFO's time
  • Real-time dashboards that show bottlenecks before they blow up

Pair that with Instamojo's payment tracking, and you've got a system that adapts as you scale – without adding more HR tickets for software training.

Bottom Line: Approval Drudgery is Optional

Companies between 50-5k employees hit a breaking point where manual approvals start costing real money. Not just in labor hours – in missed deals, shipping errors, and audit risks. This integration isn't about doing the same work faster. It's about eliminating the entire category of "payment approval problems" so your team can focus on work that actually moves needles.

Ready to stop being a human router between payment systems and decision-makers? Get ApproveThis rolling, connect it to Instamojo via Zapier, and watch those payment-related fires die down. Or grab a demo to see how approval workflows should work when they're not held together by spreadsheets and hope.
