:rocket: 2026 Updates: Deprecated CF Plugin & Native Funnelish Automations

Changes & Current Status:

  • In this 2019 thread, the user relied on ClickFunnels’ Zapier integration to send order data to Google Sheets. Because they were using the legacy Funnelish ClickFunnels plugin, PayPal orders were occasionally failing to sync with CF, which caused Zapier to miss the sales entirely.

  • This legacy ClickFunnels integration is completely deprecated. Today, Funnelish is a standalone Funnel Builder and eCommerce platform. You no longer need to rely on ClickFunnels to act as a middleman for your webhooks or Zapier connections.

Up-to-Date Information for Order Tracking & Notifications: Because Funnelish acts as your central checkout platform, you can handle order notifications and data exports natively using Funnel Automations:

1. Unified Order Tracking: Whether a customer buys using PayPal, Stripe, Klarna, or Cash on Delivery, all orders are processed directly in Funnelish. This means a single automation rule will capture 100% of your sales, regardless of the payment gateway used.

2. Direct Zapier & App Integrations: You do not need to connect Zapier to ClickFunnels anymore. You can connect Zapier directly to your Funnelish account. Alternatively, you can bypass Zapier entirely and use Funnelish’s native Webhook or direct App integrations to send order data wherever you need it.

3. Send Order Notifications to Yourself: Instead of relying purely on the PayPal mobile app for alerts, you can configure Funnelish to notify you on every sale:

  • Go to Funnel Automations (or Global Automations).

  • Create a new rule: On Purchase.

  • Add an Action: Send an Email.

  • Enter your own email address as the recipient and use merge tags like {{order_details}} to send yourself a summary the instant a purchase clears.

Hey guys, I recently started using Clickfunnels and I added Paypal checkout using Funnelish.
Normally when people order something with their creditcard, their order data goes straight into a google spreadsheet using Zapier intergration.

The thing is that it doesn’t add sales made through Paypal. I apparently got some sales without me even knowing. The was also no notification or anything that I got a sale.

So my real questions are:

  1. How can I integrate Funnelish (Paypal) orders with Zapier? Or just directly in a google spreadsheet?

  2. How do I make sure I get notified when somebody pays with Paypal?

Hope you guys can help me. :pleading_face:

Yep you can do that very easily the same way you did with Credit Card orders without having to change anything, but you should first make sure that your PayPal sales are tracked in Clickfunnels correctly Are they?!

If your orders are not tracked in Clickfunnels then that’s the problem, if it does track the orders then, Re edit your Zap and make sure it pulls a test PayPal purchase and continue from there.

Keep in mind that PayPal purchases are tracked on the entire funnel, thus in your Zap you shouldn’t specify a Step from which to track the order and select all steps instead.

There is a nice PayPal mobile app for Andoird and iOS, Also by default PayPal should send you email notifications for each Sale, dispute, or other transactions… Just check under your account settings in PayPal.

Hope that helps :wink:
