How to Send Contact Form 7 Submissions to Kit

Kit is a email marketing platform for managing subscribers and campaigns. If you want Contact Form 7 submissions in Kit, you could pay for a cloud automation service. Or you could do it directly from WordPress. This is the direct route.

Why connect directly?

Cloud automation tools like Zapier charge per task and route your data through external servers. AFI processes everything on your WordPress site. No per-submission fees, no external dependencies.
