What Is Gravity Perks Unique ID?
Gravity Perks Unique ID is developed by Gravity Wiz and is an extensions plugin for WordPress. It belongs to the forms category on WPExclusive, alongside other tools for data collection. The plugin addresses the limitation in standard forms where entry IDs are often just simple database increments that lack customization.
Unique ID empowers developers to create complex identification strings that include prefixes, suffixes, and specific formatting. It is built for business owners who need their form data to integrate with external accounting, shipping, or CRM systems.
Gravity Perks Unique ID Features
The core feature set is built around providing a new Advanced Field type within the Gravity Forms editor.
Flexible ID Types
The plugin supports three distinct identification formats: alphanumeric, numeric, and sequential. Alphanumeric IDs combine letters and numbers for secure, random codes, while numeric IDs provide long strings of digits. The sequential option is ideal for counting entries in order, such as for invoice numbering or ecommerce transaction tracking.
Advanced Formatting Controls
Users can specify a starting number, fixed length, prefix, and suffix for any generated ID. Length settings allow for padding sequential numbers with zeros, turning a simple ‘1’ into ‘00001’. The prefix and suffix fields support merge tags, enabling the inclusion of dates or form-specific data directly within the ID string.
Deep Integration and Merge Tags
Unique ID generated values are available via standard merge tags for use in notifications and confirmations. It integrates specifically with Gravity PDF for creating professional invoices and the Gravity Forms File Renamer to ensure uploaded files share the same unique reference as the entry. The ID is only generated after successful submission to ensure no gaps occur in sequential sequences.
Pricing
Retail pricing for individual perks starts at $49 for a single site license. Check current pricing on the Unique ID sales page — WPExclusive members access it as part of their plan.
| Plan | Price | Sites | Includes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Basic Perk | $49 | 1 Site | 1 Year Support |
| Pro Bundle | $259 | Unlimited | All Perks |
| WPExclusive Membership | From $9.99/month | Unlimited | Unique ID + full library |
For developers managing multiple sites, a WPExclusive membership covers Unique ID plus hundreds of other plugins and themes — usually less than one premium license.
Latest Version
The plugin receives regular updates from the Gravity Wiz team to ensure compatibility with the latest WordPress and Gravity Forms releases. Version 1.5 introduced essential database updates for sequence reliability. WPExclusive updates plugin files promptly after each release.

Use Cases
Automated Invoice and Reference Numbers
E-commerce sites can generate sequential invoice numbers with a year-based prefix using the ecommerce integration details. This ensures every transaction has a unique, professional identifier for bookkeeping.
Dynamic Coupon and Voucher Codes
Create alphanumeric codes for tickets or dynamic coupons that are automatically sent to users upon form completion. This prevents code duplication and allows for secure redemption processes.
Support Ticket Systems
Assign a unique numeric ID to every support request. This allows both the site admin and the user to reference a specific submission throughout the communication process, improving organization.
Agencies and Developers Managing Multiple Client Sites
Agencies can deploy complex form logic across various client domains without purchasing individual perk licenses for every site. Using a WPExclusive membership allows developers to maintain these features cost-effectively across an entire portfolio.
