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!

Chrome Web Store review
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.

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.

Connect what you already use

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.
Is it hard to switch from GroupKit?
No. Install the extension, connect the Google Sheet and email platform you already use, and your next approval flows through Group Collector. AWeber, GetResponse, ConvertKit, and ActiveCampaign all connect directly. You can be up and running in about 3 minutes, and you can run both tools side by side until you cancel GroupKit.
Will I lose the leads I collected with GroupKit?
No. Leads that GroupKit sent to your email platform or Google Sheet stay there, and Group Collector adds new members to the same places. If you keep members only in the GroupKit CRM, save a copy before you cancel. Historical export can pull answers for members who joined before you installed Group Collector.
Do I still have to click Approve?
No. Group Collector approves the members who meet your rules and declines the ones who do not, 24/7 while Chrome is open. GroupKit saves a member when you click its Approve button; Group Collector works the queue for you.
What does Group Collector do beyond lead capture?
Everything in the table above. Group Collector auto-approves and auto-declines by your rules, messages members before approval and after a decline, sends personalized welcome DMs, and @mentions new members in welcome posts.
Does it work with my email platform?
Almost certainly. Group Collector has 44+ direct integrations, including AWeber, GetResponse, Kit (ConvertKit), ActiveCampaign, Mailchimp, GoHighLevel, HubSpot, 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 GroupKit. It is the same Enterprise lifetime license the homepage sells for $297, with $100 off.
How many groups can I use it on?
All of them. Every plan connects unlimited Facebook Groups, each with its own Google Sheet and email platform settings.
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.

Keep every group. Drop every invoice.

Free for 7 days, then lifetime access for $197, paid once. Unlimited groups, all 12 automations, every future update.
