SmartrMail is an email marketing platform built for e-commerce stores using Shopify and WooCommerce.

Getting Contact Form 7 data into SmartrMail does not require external tools. Advanced Form Integration handles it natively. This guide covers every step.

Skip the automation middleman

Rather than routing data through a third-party cloud, AFI sends it directly from your WordPress server to SmartrMail. No task meter, no monthly bill.

What you will need

  • A WordPress site with Contact Form 7 installed and at least one form.
  • A SmartrMail account.
  • The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).

Connect SmartrMail to AFI

  1. Log in to your SmartrMail account.
  2. Go to Settings → API and copy your API Key.
  3. In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → SmartrMail.
