Two cards for one dispute
A retried ping left two cards on the board and two people gathering the same evidence.
BoldBellowsGumroad to Trello automation that builds cards worth working from
Gumroad to Trello automation that gives each refund, dispute or special request one card with a checklist, then finds it again after it moves
Gumroad to Trello automation turns the Gumroad events that need handling into cards with an owner, a due date and the steps to follow. A Trello card moves from list to list, so a sale stored only in its title gets lost, and Gumroad retries pings when a reply is slow. BoldBellows captures the sale ID, the event type and the buyer's email, holds the ping until the sale has been confirmed by the API, then builds one card and keeps the sale ID in a custom field that can always be searched.

01the lost-card problem
A card whose sale nobody can find gets created twice
Cards move. By the time Gumroad pings that a dispute was won, the case card may sit in Waiting on Gumroad or have been archived, and a search by title finds nothing. The sync makes a second card, and your helper spends an afternoon on a dispute that was already settled.
A card nobody could find
With Gumroad to Trello in place, the title was edited during triage, so the next update could not locate it.
A checklist retyped every time
The steps a refund needs were typed in by hand on each card, and one was always skipped.
The same Gumroad cases, as cards that stay findable
Before: nothing decides what counts
- Each event is treated as brand new
- The sale is stored in the card title
- A moved card cannot be found
After: every write has a key
- A Gumroad sale-ID custom field is stored before anything is written
- The sale ID is kept in a custom field
- The board is searched for it before anything is created for Gumroad to Trello
02how it works
How a Gumroad event becomes one Trello card with a checklist
Each event passes the same gates: rule, key, lookup, write, proof.
- Catch the event. The Gumroad notification is received, confirmed as genuine and matched against the list of changes that should act.
- Search the key, then build. With the sale confirmed through the API and its ID saved, the custom field is searched; if the case is unseen, the list, due date, labels and checklist are prepared from a written map.
- Place the card and keep its ID. The card is created or refreshed, the checklist is finished, and the card ID is saved against the Gumroad sale.
Behaviour of Gumroad and Trello we design around
- Native connections are few. Gumroad connects directly to tools such as Discord and Circle, while email, spreadsheet and CRM tools usually go through a connector, and this build adds the rules around them.
- Custom fields on cards. Trello custom fields add structured data to a card, such as text or dates, so the sale ID has a home that can be searched.
- When a write is doubtful. The route finds the record in Trello by a Gumroad sale-ID custom field, compares it with the intention and only then decides.

"Give me a checklist I can use."
Steps are built from the Gumroad event type, not retyped.

05Compare
Not notification emails, not a basic zap, but a card-and-checklist builder
Each can add a card. Only one can find it again.
| Where the work starts | Notification emails | A one-step Gumroad to Trello zap | Built as a card-and-checklist builder |
|---|---|---|---|
| What starts the work | Someone remembers | All events of the chosen type | YesThe sale ping you defined, nothing else |
| How identity is decided | Looked up in a spreadsheet | A convenient field, unchecked | YesA custom field holding the sale ID |
| What reaches Trello | Only what was noticed | Plain values with no types | YesOne Trello card with list, labels, due date and checklist |
| After an uncertain result | Check each tool in turn | Halts and waits | YesVerifies the result, then fixes or escalates |
A stale event shows up last
Time is checked before anything is written: the stale event is logged with its reason and the current card stays as it is, for this Gumroad to Trello route.
The Trello card was moved, archived or its custom field was removed
The board is searched by sale ID, and if the field is gone the case waits with a clear reason instead of making a twin. Matching on a Gumroad sale-ID custom field, the route sorts the situation into absent, present and correct, present but different, or ambiguous. If the Gumroad card exists and matches, nothing more is written.
A Gumroad sale-ID custom field is the one thing that cannot change after launch, so it is settled on day one.

06The process
Six steps from Gumroad cases to cards that stay findable
Brief, access, design, test, launch and review: six steps, each with a deliverable.
Decide which events become cards
We list the Gumroad events that earn a Trello card and the list each one belongs on.
Approve access
Together we approve what the route may read in Gumroad and where it may write in Trello.
Agree lists, labels and fields
In the Gumroad to Trello route, the custom field, list rules, labels, due-date logic and checklist templates are written down and signed off.
Run the hard cases first
Repeats, stale events and permission changes are tested before the easy cases, in a copy of Trello, on the Gumroad to Trello route.
Launch with notes
We switch the route on at a checkpoint you approve and leave you with written notes on how it works.
Check the live results
The first runs are compared record by record with the source so you can see the route doing its job.
07Turnaround
Timing for the Trello build
The clock starts once Gumroad and Trello access are approved.
Connect
3 to 5 business days
Resolve
5 to 8 business days
Safeguard
8 to 12 business days
08Before we start
What you supply to begin
Approved, revocable access to the Gumroad side
Access to the Trello board and permission to add a custom field
A Gumroad user or token limited to the objects in scope
Two real cases: one sale ping that should act and one that should not
Your preferred naming for statuses, tags or labels in Trello
Contact details for whoever manages Trello access
09Security and ownership
The Trello card gets only what it needs, and nothing inside Trello is altered
Only agreed Gumroad data leaves, and it goes to one named place in Trello.
Supported connections, nothing more
Access runs through the approved connection points on both sides, so an update to Gumroad or Trello does not undo the build.
Scoped, revocable access
Scopes are reviewed with you before launch and again at handover.
Private details stay private
Internal notes, payment information and anything outside the map remain in Gumroad and never appear in Trello.
Doubt goes to a lookup
When a write might have landed, the answer comes from Trello, matched on a Gumroad sale-ID custom field, not from a second attempt.
Minimal logging
Logs hold identifiers, times and error types, not your customer content.
Full handover
Handover includes the rules, the owners and the repair steps in one PDF.

What surprised me most is how natural it sounds. Customers compliment the ‘agent’ without realizing it’s AI. Our support workload dropped by 75% and customer satisfaction went up dramatically.
AI Content & Social Media Automation
Our marketing agency couldn’t keep up with content. BoldBellows set up an AI content engine that writes blog posts and captions and even designs our social media creatives.
It spots trends and suggests topics for us, so we stay ahead of competitors. We now produce three times the content with the same team, and engagement has soared. They didn’t just automate our workflow, they lifted our whole brand.

Late payments dropped sharply, and our accounting team finally has time for strategy instead of repetitive admin. Worth every penny.
AI Data Entry & Reporting Automation

The reports are clean, visual and easy to read, and our managers rely on them for quick decisions. Human error is gone and our numbers are more accurate across the board.
AI E-commerce Listings Automation
BoldBellows automated our product listings. The AI writes descriptions, organizes photos and publishes listings across several marketplaces.
It even answers customer questions instantly. Our store looks more professional and sales have noticeably increased.

We wanted a smoother path from first contact to purchase. BoldBellows built an AI system that guides each customer there automatically.
It sends personalized messages, recommends products and follows up at just the right moment. Customer retention has improved dramatically.
AI Document & Contract Automation
Onboarding was slow because we wrote every contract by hand. BoldBellows automated the lot: contracts, welcome emails and client setup.
What took 48 hours now takes under 10 minutes, and clients regularly tell us how professional it feels.
AI Social Comment & DM Automation
We get thousands of comments and messages every week. BoldBellows built an AI system that replies instantly, filters spam and surfaces the important ones.
Engagement is up and our page looks active around the clock. It’s like having a full social media team that never stops.
AI CRM Automation
Our CRM was barely used because updating it by hand was tedious. BoldBellows automated data entry, tagging, segmentation and follow-ups.
Now the CRM is always up to date and our campaigns are far more accurate. It improved our whole sales pipeline.
AI Voice Assistant
BoldBellows built a custom AI voice assistant for our customer hotline. It answers questions, books appointments and handles simple requests.
Customers love how fast it is, and our call-centre workload dropped dramatically. One of the smartest upgrades we’ve made.
11FAQ
Trello cards from Gumroad: questions from creators and support helpers
A handful of honest answers before you spend anything.
We tried a Gumroad to Trello Zapier flow; what changes?
A card created for every case is well within a zap's reach. It does not find a card again after it moves, build a checklist from the event or place a case on the right list. The build is the part that handles what a simple zap cannot.
How do I create a Trello card from a Gumroad refund?
Each Gumroad event that qualifies arrives as a ping, and the route confirms the sale, searches the custom field for its sale ID and creates one card with list, due date, labels and checklist.
What if the Gumroad card has moved to another list?
The route searches by the custom field, not the title or the list, so the Gumroad card is found wherever it now sits.
Does a dispute update change the existing card?
Yes. Because the sale ID matches, the card is updated and no second card is made.
Can the checklist depend on the type of case on the Gumroad to Trello route?
Yes. A written map gives a refund, a dispute and a licence request their own steps.
Can refunds and disputes use different boards?
Yes. Board and list are picked from the event type and amount using a table written with you.
Are unconfirmed pings added as cards?
No. A card is made only after the sale has been confirmed at the source.
Will you map custom fields as well on the Gumroad to Trello route?
Absolutely. Nothing reaches Trello until the Gumroad Trello field mapping service has your approval on the page.
Is a tailored workflow possible, or only a standard one in the Gumroad to Trello route?
Yes. Anything you can state as a rule can become part of a custom Gumroad workflow for Trello. That includes Gumroad Trello integration consultant advice, from $415.
What happens if Gumroad or Trello changes something later?
You get a list of the interfaces we rely on. When one shifts, the affected records hold and you are told. Later maintenance is quoted on its own.
