1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Integration

To collect payments from Google Forms, you need to access Pabbly Connect. This platform facilitates the integration between Google Forms and your payment gateway. Start by visiting the Pabbly Connect website and logging in or signing up for a free account.

Once you’re logged in, navigate to the dashboard. Here, you can create a new workflow that will automate the payment collection process. This is where the power of Pabbly Connect comes into play, allowing you to set up triggers and actions seamlessly.

2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

In this step, you will create a new workflow to connect Google Forms with your payment gateway. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button located on the right side of the dashboard. Name your workflow something descriptive like ‘Collect Payments From Google Forms’.

• Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button.
• Enter a name for your workflow.
• Choose Google Forms as your trigger application.

After naming the workflow, you will need to select Google Forms as the trigger application. The trigger event here will be set to ‘New Response Received’. This means that every time a form is submitted, it will initiate the payment process through Pabbly Connect.

3. Setting Up the Trigger for Google Forms

Now, it’s time to set up the trigger for your Google Forms. In the trigger setup, select your Google account and the specific form you want to use for collecting payments. This is crucial as it tells Pabbly Connect which form responses to monitor.

Once you have selected the form, you will need to configure the Webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect. This URL acts as a bridge between Google Forms and Pabbly Connect, ensuring that data flows smoothly. Make sure to save your settings before moving on to the next step.

4. Connecting Your Payment Gateway with Pabbly Connect

The next step is to connect your payment gateway, such as Razorpay, with Pabbly Connect. In the action step of your workflow, select Razorpay as the action application. The action event will be set to ‘Create Payment Link’.

• Choose Razorpay as the action application.
• Set the action event to ‘Create Payment Link’.
• Map the necessary fields from the Google Forms response.

Mapping fields is essential to ensure that the correct information from the form is sent to Razorpay. This includes details like the amount, course name, and the email address of the student. Once you have mapped all fields, save the action and proceed to test the workflow.

5. Testing the Workflow and Final Setup

After setting everything up, it’s crucial to test your workflow. Submit a test response through your Google Form to see if the payment link is generated correctly. Check your Razorpay account to confirm that the payment link was created successfully.

If everything works as expected, you can finalize your setup. This means that every time a student submits the form, Pabbly Connect will automatically send a payment link to their email, streamlining the payment process. This automation saves time and enhances the user experience significantly.

Conclusion

Using Pabbly Connect, you can efficiently collect payments from Google Forms. This integration simplifies the payment process and automates notifications, ensuring a seamless experience for users. Start leveraging this powerful tool today to enhance your payment collection methods.
