Group Funnels alternative

Group Funnels ended lifetime pricing. Ours is still one payment.

In 2025 Group Funnels required customers from 2023 and earlier to pay $29 a month or $297 a year to keep their accounts active, and it still lists auto member approval and direct CRM integration as in development. Group Collector does both today, on unlimited groups. Try it free for 7 days, then pay $197 once instead of $297.

50 to 150 requests a day
I have a large FB group with 50-150 new member requests every day. Group Collector works great at automatically collecting those emails for me and integrating them into my Flodesk email sequence. It saves me so much time!

Worth every penny
Got it working with my CRM and now it saves me a ton of time because when people join my group and provide an email I can put them in an automation right away. Worth every penny!

Chrome Web Store review
Four groups, one tool
It was easy to set up, and the developer helped me. Now I'm happy collecting emails from four groups and funnelling them into my ActiveCampaign.

Moved from Groups Pro
I set it up very easily and quickly and it works perfectly. I moved away from Groups Pro which I had for 2 years and was always having issues. Group Collector approves automatically, no need to log in every day.

Questions

Before you switch

How does the free trial work?
Start today and pay $0. You get the full product right away. Cancel within 7 days (email support@groupcollector.com) and you are never charged; otherwise you pay $197 once (plus VAT where it applies) and keep access for as long as Group Collector is available.
I bought Group Funnels lifetime. What changed?
If you signed up in 2023 or earlier, their February 2025 update required a $29 monthly or $297 yearly plan by February 17 to keep your account active. If you joined in 2024 or 2025, the same fee was set to start in 2026. Group Collector's switch deal is $197 once, with unlimited groups, all 12 automations, and every future update.
Will I lose the leads I collected with Group Funnels?
Not if you push them first. Group Funnels keeps captured members in your browser until you press Push to Google Sheet or download a CSV, so do that before you uninstall it. Everything already in your Sheet stays there, and Group Collector adds new members to the same Sheet.
Is it hard to switch?
No. Install the extension, connect the Google Sheet you already use plus your email platform, and your next approval flows through Group Collector. You can be up and running in about 3 minutes, and you can run both tools side by side until you cancel Group Funnels.
Do I still have to click Approve All?
No. Group Collector approves the members who meet your rules and declines the ones who do not, 24/7 while Chrome is open. Group Funnels lists auto member approval as still in development.
Does it work with my email platform?
Almost certainly, and directly, with no Google Sheet or Zapier step in between. Group Collector has 44+ direct integrations, including Mailchimp, ActiveCampaign, Kit (ConvertKit), GoHighLevel, HubSpot, AWeber, GetResponse, Klaviyo, MailerLite, Google Sheets, and a webhook for anything custom. If yours is missing, tell us: we add integrations regularly.
Is $197 really a one-time payment?
Yes. You pay $197 once (plus VAT where it applies) and keep access for as long as Group Collector is available: unlimited groups, all 12 automations, and every future update. No monthly or yearly renewals, ever.
Why is it $197 here and $297 on your homepage?
This is our switch offer for people comparing Group Funnels. It is the same Enterprise lifetime license the homepage sells for $297, with $100 off.
What if it doesn't work for my group?
Email support@groupcollector.com within 30 days of your purchase and we will refund you in full, no questions asked.
Does it work on Mac and Windows?
Yes. It runs as a Chrome extension, so it works on Windows, Mac, Linux, and Chromebook.

One payment. No 2.0 to wait for.

Free for 7 days, then lifetime access for $197, paid once. Auto-approve, 44+ direct integrations, welcome DMs, unlimited groups, every future update.
