ApproveThis manages your Launch Cart Integration approvals.

When Order Chaos Meets Approval Sanity

Let's get real – ecommerce teams using Launch Cart have two recurring nightmares:

1. Orders piling up while someone hunts down Doug from accounting for payment approval
2. Marketing adding 500 new newsletter subscribers that sales never knew existed

ApproveThis acts like a bouncer for your Launch Cart workflows. We don't just "integrate" – we inject structure into the chaos. Connect them through Zapier, and suddenly every critical action in Launch Cart gets vetted by the right people before things go sideways.

Why This Combo Works Better Than Your Current Mess

Launch Cart handles the selling. ApproveThis handles the "should we actually do this?" conversations. Together, they solve three problems most mid-sized companies ignore until it's too late:

• Financial control: $5k order from a new customer? Requires CFO eyes before shipping
• Compliance: Newsletter sign-ups get marketing lead approval to avoid spam traps
• Audit trails: Every decision tied to specific users and timestamps

Here's the kicker – approvers only need ApproveThis access. No extra Launch Cart licenses for your CFO's external accountant or that compliance consultant who reviews newsletter lists.

Real World Use Cases That Don't Suck

1. High-Risk Order Vetting

A $14,000 wholesale order hits your Launch Cart store. Your current process? Sales manager panics, CCs six people in a Slack thread, loses track of who approved what.

Fixed version:

Zapier automatically creates an ApproveThis request with:

• Customer's order history
• Credit check status
• Auto-calculated profit margin using ApproveThis' calculated fields

Approval rules:

- Under $2k: Auto-approved
- $2k-$10k: Needs warehouse manager + sales lead
- Over $10k: Adds CFO to approval chain

Who this helps:
Retailers: Stop losing 3 hours daily chasing down approvers
Wholesalers: Avoid $50k mistakes from rushed approvals
D2C brands: Flag VIP customers for special handling

2. Newsletter List Hygiene

Marketing's latest campaign brought 2,300 new subscribers... along with 700 fake emails and 12 competitors snooping around.

Fixed version:

Every new Launch Cart subscriber triggers:

1. Automatic fraud check via third-party tool (connected through Zapier)
2. ApproveThis request to marketing lead if:
- Email matches competitor domains
- Uses disposable email address
- Has multiple sign-ups from same IP

Who this helps:
Marketing teams: Keep lists clean without manual reviews
Compliance teams: Prove GDPR/CCPA due diligence
Sales ops: Stop wasting time on bogus leads

Setup That Doesn't Require an IT Degree

Connect ApproveThis to Launch Cart in 3 steps even your non-techy ops manager can handle:

Step 1: In Zapier, choose "New Order" or "New Subscription" as trigger
Step 2: Map Launch Cart data to ApproveThis fields (takes 2 minutes)
Step 3: Set approval rules – who needs to approve what, and when

Pro tip: Use ApproveThis' approval thresholds to auto-approve small orders but require human eyes on big spends. Saves 20+ hours/month in manual reviews.

Team-Specific Wins

- Automatic approval for repeat customers with 90+ day payment history

- Get email/SMS alerts when high-risk orders need attention

Operations Teams

No more "I thought you approved that!" moments:

Marketing Teams

Why This Beats "Just Using Launch Cart"

Launch Cart's great at taking orders. ApproveThis adds the guardrails growing companies actually need:

Conditional logic: Route $50k orders to different approvers than $500 ones automatically
Audit trails: Prove who approved what – crucial for SOX compliance
External approvals: Let vendors/contractors approve orders without Launch Cart access

Time to Stop Losing Money on Missed Approvals

Here's the reality – if you're handling over 50 orders/month manually, you're either:
A) Wasting money on preventable errors
B) About to have a compliance headache
C) Both

ApproveThis + Launch Cart via Zapier fixes this in an afternoon. Setup takes less time than your weekly team sync.
