How to Send Contact Form 7 Submissions to Mailshake
Mailshake is a sales engagement and email outreach platform for sales teams and link builders.
Getting Contact Form 7 data into Mailshake does not require Zapier or custom PHP. Advanced Form Integration handles the connection natively, and this guide covers every step.
Skip the automation middleman
Rather than sending form data through Zapier or Make, AFI delivers it straight from WordPress to Mailshake. No per-submission fees, no external dependencies.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with Contact Form 7 installed and at least one form.
- A Mailshake account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect Mailshake to AFI
- Log in to your Mailshake account.
- Go to Settings → API and generate an API Key.
- In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → Mailshake.
- Paste the API Key and click Save Changes.
Setting up the integration
1. Create a new integration
Go to AFI → Add New. Name it something like CF7 to Mailshake.
2. Pick your trigger
Select Contact Form 7 and choose the form. AFI detects fields automatically.
3. Select Mailshake as the destination
Choose Mailshake from the dropdown and pick Add Lead. This adds a lead to a Mailshake campaign.
4. Map fields
Match each Mailshake field to the corresponding Contact Form 7 field. Smart tags like {{_submission_date}} and {{utm_source}} are also available.
5. Add conditions if needed
Set up conditional rules to send only specific submissions based on form field values.
6. Save and test
Click Save Integration. Submit a test form and verify the data arrived in Mailshake. Check AFI → Log to debug any issues.
Free vs Pro
The free version maps email, first name, and last name to Mailshake with unlimited submissions. Pro adds custom field mapping and campaign selection. No per-submission fees on any plan.
