Category Match

Match leads to members based on service category.

Category matching routes leads to members who provide the requested service type.

How it works

  1. Lead selects a service category on the form
  2. LeadRoute finds members with that category
  3. Lead is distributed to matching members

Setting up category matching

  1. Define categories in Directory Settings
  2. Ensure members have categories assigned
  3. Add a category field to your lead form
  4. Enable Category Match distribution

Multiple categories

Members can belong to multiple categories. If a lead matches multiple members, the secondary distribution rule applies (round-robin by default).

No matching members

Configure fallback behavior when no members match the category:

  • Send to owner
  • Send to all members
  • Queue for manual assignment
