Let’s be real: approvals suck. They’re the traffic jam in your workflow highway. Someone submits a request. It gets lost in Slack. Karen from accounting’s on vacation. The client’s screaming for updates. Meanwhile, your Wix site’s collecting dust because nobody can greenlight the new product page.
Here’s the fix: Connect ApproveThis to Wix via Zapier. It’s like giving your approvals a caffeine shot. We’re talking automated workflows that kick in when orders hit your Wix store, instant alerts when forms get submitted, and zero license fees for external partners. Let’s break down why this combo works harder than your office Keurig.
Why This Integration Doesn’t Just “Work” – It Solves Sh*t
Wix built your site. ApproveThis runs your approvals. Together? They handle the grunt work so your team can focus on actual work. Here’s the deal:
No More “Who Approved This?”
ApproveThis tracks every decision like a bloodhound. Combined with Wix triggers, you’ll know exactly who approved the 50% off coupon that crashed your margins. Real-time dashboards show where requests stall – no more herding cats for updates.
Clients & Vendors Don’t Need a Wix Login (Thank God)
Your external partners approve via email. No Wix logins. No training. Just click “Approve” and keep moving. Bonus: You’re not paying for extra Wix seats for people who just need to say “yes” or “no.”
Automate the Annoying, Keep Control Where It Matters
Set rules so small approvals auto-resolve. New Wix order under $500? Auto-approve. Over $10K? Route to the CFO. ApproveThis handles the if-this-then-that logic so your team only sees what needs human eyes.
Real Use Cases (That Don’t Sound Like Robot Talk)
1. eCommerce Teams: Stop Leaving Money in Shopping Carts
The Problem: High-value orders get stuck waiting for fraud checks. Custom requests (like bulk pricing) die in email threads.
The Fix: When a Wix order hits your store:
- Over $5K? Auto-send to ApproveThis for manager review
- Bulk order? Calculate margin in real-time using ApproveThis fields
- Rush shipping? Escalate to warehouse lead via SMS
Who This Helps: Retailers using Wix’s eCommerce tools. Example: A furniture store approves custom upholstery requests 60% faster by auto-routing to their design team.
2. Operations: Kill the “Form Black Hole”
The Problem: Wix forms for PTO requests or vendor onboarding vanish into approval limbo. Employees chase managers for signatures.
The Fix: Connect Wix form submissions to ApproveThis:
- New vendor application? Route to legal, then procurement
- PTO request? Check remaining days, auto-approve if available
- Approval granted? Auto-update the Wix database
Who This Helps: HR teams and agencies. Example: A marketing firm cut client onboarding from 5 days to 8 hours by automating NDA approvals.
3. Web Teams: Publish Faster Without Regrets
The Problem: Content updates sit waiting for legal/compliance. Urgent fixes get pushed without review.
The Fix: Trigger ApproveThis workflows when Wix tasks change:
- Blog post ready? Route to compliance + CEO for final sign-off
- Homepage update? Require sequential approvals (copywriter → designer → CMO)
- Approved? Auto-publish via Wix API
Who This Helps: Regulated industries like healthcare. Example: A clinic approves patient-facing content 3x faster while maintaining compliance.
Setting This Up Isn’t Rocket Science (We Promise)
If you can build a Wix site, you can handle this:
- Connect the Apps: Create a Zapier account, then link Wix and ApproveThis
- Pick Your Trigger: “New Wix Order” or “Form Submitted”
- Build Approval Logic: Add conditional steps in ApproveThis (e.g., “If order > $X, require CFO approval”)
- Test with Real Data: Submit a fake Wix order to confirm routing
Pro Tip: Use ApproveThis’ Calculated Fields to auto-calculate margins or project hours during approval requests.
Who Actually Cares About This? (Team Breakdown)
Finance Teams
They’ll love audit trails showing who approved discounts. Budget thresholds in ApproveThis stop rogue spending before it happens.
Project Managers
Real-time dashboards show which Wix tasks are stuck. Vacation delegation means projects don’t die when someone’s OOO.
Marketing Teams
Launch campaigns faster by routing Wix content updates through legal and brand teams. No more “I didn’t see the email” excuses.
Bottom Line: This Isn’t Just “Another Integration”
ApproveThis + Wix via Zapier solves specific pains:
- Slowness: Cut approval times from days to hours
- Visibility: Know exactly where requests stand
- Cost: No extra Wix seats for external approvers
It’s not about doing more – it’s about finally keeping up.
Ready to Stop Being a Human Routing Bot?
Get ApproveThis, connect your Wix site via Zapier, and automate the approval junk that’s been clogging your day. Or book a demo if you’d rather see it work first.
P.S. Your approvers will thank you. And by “thank,” we mean they’ll finally stop blowing up your Slack.
