What the MLM Soft Zapier integration does for you
The MLM Soft Zapier integration links your MLM Soft account to Zapier so that events in MLM Soft can start work in other apps, and other apps can write into MLM Soft. MLM Soft is a cloud platform built for MLM and affiliate marketing businesses. The traffic goes both ways: two events out, two ways in.
Three results come out of the four operations. Accounts opened without retyping: a signup collected in another tool goes straight into MLM Soft through Create Account, with login, email, first name and last name filled from the earlier step. A shared list of new members: New Account sends each fresh account to a spreadsheet or another app, so the rest of the team sees it without logging in to MLM Soft. Orders recorded where the plan is calculated: Create Order pushes an order, usually a purchase document, into the MLM Soft compensation plan engine.
There is also Account Updated, which fires when an account's email changes, handy to keep another tool's copy of that address current.
What Zapier does not do here: there is no search, so a Zap cannot look up an existing MLM Soft account or order before acting. There is no action to change or delete an account either; you can create, not edit.

Zapier in one minute
A handful of Zapier words come back on every page. Here they are once, in plain terms.
- Zap
- The automation you build: one trigger, then one or more actions that run every time the trigger event happens.
- Trigger
- The event in an app that starts the Zap, such as a new MLM Soft account. Once the Zap is on, Zapier waits for it.
- Action
- What the Zap does once started: the step that writes, sends or moves something for you, like creating an order.
- Task
- The unit Zapier bills: one action your Zap completes successfully. Your plan's allowance is a count of those.
- Instant vs polling
- An instant trigger is reported by the app the moment it happens. A polling one is checked by Zapier on a timer instead.
- Filter
- A step that lets the Zap go on only when what arrived meets the condition you set, and stops it otherwise.
- Multi-step Zap
- Any Zap beyond one trigger and one action. A second action or a filter makes it one, and then it needs a paid plan.
What MLM Soft Zaps really cost
MLM Soft is not one of the apps Zapier keeps for paid plans, so it works on the free plan.
- TriggerNever counted
- Create Account or Create Order1 task each time it works
- Free plan100 tasks a month, two-step Zaps
- Paid plan onlySecond action, filter
The trigger never costs a task. Each action that goes through counts as one task, and an action that fails is not counted. Create Account and Create Order are actions, so each successful one is a task. The free plan gives 100 tasks a month and unlimited Zaps, each capped at two steps: one trigger, one action. A second action or a filter makes it a multi-step Zap that needs a paid plan. The grid below is how often Zapier checks polling triggers; it does not apply to MLM Soft, whose two triggers are both instant.
Connect MLM Soft to Zapier in three steps
- 01
Open the Apps page
In your Zapier account, open Apps and click + Add connection. A connection is your MLM Soft account linked once, then reused by every Zap step that touches MLM Soft.
- 02
Find MLM Soft
Type MLM Soft in the search box of the dialog, pick it from the results, then click Add connection. A new tab opens so you can sign in to your MLM Soft account.
- 03
Sign in and grant access
Log in to MLM Soft in that tab and grant Zapier access. You need an account on MLM Soft, plus read or write access on anything you do not own yourself and want the Zap to touch.
Your first MLM Soft Zap: a members log with an alert
GoalEach new MLM Soft account is added as a row to a shared spreadsheet, then an email tells the team who just joined.
- 01
Create the Zap
Start a new Zap, choose MLM Soft as the app and New Account as the event, then select your MLM Soft connection. The trigger is instant, so a lightning bolt shows in the editor.
- 02
Test the trigger
Run the test: Zapier brings back the three most recent items of the connected account. Pick a real one and read what MLM Soft sends before mapping anything.
- 03
Add the spreadsheet row
Add the action that writes a row and map the account details from the test into the columns. What each account carries is something to check at the test, not to guess.
- 04
Add the team email
Add the email action after it. Two actions make this a multi-step Zap, so it needs a paid plan, and each new account uses two tasks when both steps work.
- 05
Test, then publish
Run each step once and read what came back before going further. When the row and the email look right, click Publish to switch the Zap on.
MLM Soft triggers
2 events start a Zap when something happens in MLM Soft, and 2 of them are instant: the app calls Zapier straight away, whatever your plan.
Account Updated
Instant triggerIn Zapier“Triggers when email updated.”
When the email address on an MLM Soft account changes, this trigger passes the account to your Zap, so another tool can pick up the new address instead of keeping the old one.
New Account
Instant triggerIn Zapier“Triggers when a new account is created.”
Every account created in MLM Soft is handed to the Zap through this trigger, which makes it the natural starting point for anything that should follow a new member.
MLM Soft actions
MLM Soft gives you 2 actions. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.
Create Account
ActionIn Zapier“Create account in mlmsoft”
Opens a new account in MLM Soft from data another app already holds, so nobody has to type the same person twice.
Create Order
ActionIn Zapier“Create order (usually Purchase document) in compensation plan engine”
Sends an order into the MLM Soft compensation plan engine, usually as a purchase document, so it counts where your plan is calculated.
When an MLM Soft Zap breaks
Zapier links no help article to MLM Soft, so the limits below are the ones every Zap shares.
Rule them out one by one before you suspect MLM Soft itself. When something looks off, see our Zapier troubleshooting guide.
The past is not replayed
A Zap only reacts to what happens after it is switched on. Accounts and orders already in MLM Soft are not picked up; moving them is a separate job.A sudden batch can be held back
If a trigger suddenly returns a huge batch, after a bulk import or a migration for instance, Zapier's flood protection can hold it back.Loops eat tasks
As a general precaution, a Zap that writes into the very place its own trigger watches can set itself off again and again and burn through tasks fast.
