By Sparkforge Support Team ·Last reviewed May 3, 2026

The Order Form Submission trigger fires when a customer submits an order form on a funnel or website. Filter by funnel, page, product, and submission type.

The Order Form Submission trigger fires a workflow whenever a customer completes and submits an order form on a Sparkforge funnel or website. It is the trigger to use for confirmation emails, post-purchase upsells, abandoned-cart recovery, and CRM hygiene tied to checkout activity.

What the trigger does

Every order form submission — whether it's a paid sale, a bump add-on, an upsell, or just an opt-in — fires the trigger. Filters then narrow which submissions actually run the workflow.

Why use it

  • Order automation — confirmation emails, record updates, and team notifications without manual touch.
  • Better customer experience — instant follow-up and clear next steps.
  • Targeted sequences — different products and submission types can run different workflows.
  • Upsell and cross-sell — bump and upsell submissions trigger product-specific follow-ups.
  • Cart recovery — opt-in submissions catch shoppers who entered details but didn't pay.

Configure the trigger

  1. Open the workflow builder — Automation section in Sparkforge.
  2. Add the trigger — click Add New Trigger and select Order Form Submission.
  3. Name it — something descriptive like Order Form Submitted for Live Workshop.
  4. Set filters — see below.
  5. Save, test, publish — confirm with sample data, then activate.

Available filters

  • In Funnel/Website — scope to a single funnel or website. You can stack page and product filters on top.
  • Page Is — narrow to a specific order page inside the funnel.
  • Product Is — fire only for specific products tied to the order form.
  • Submission Type — see the breakdown below.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will Opt-In and Sale fire two separate workflows for the same customer?
Yes. If a customer opts in then completes the sale, both submission types fire. Add wait or condition steps if you don't want both sequences running.
Can I trigger different workflows for different products?
Yes. Use the Product Is filter, or build separate workflows scoped to each product for cleaner reporting.
Does the trigger fire on test orders?
Yes — test mode submissions fire the trigger too. Filter test contacts by tag if you want to exclude them.
What's the difference between Order Form Submission and Order Placed?
Order Form Submission covers all submission types including opt-ins and bumps. Order Placed only fires on actual paid orders.
Can I capture the order amount inside the workflow?
Yes. The opportunity and order data flow through, so you can branch on cart value or set custom fields based on amount.
