Sendy is a email marketing platform for managing subscribers and campaigns. Ninja Forms is one of the most user-friendly form plugins for WordPress. Sendy is where that data needs to go. Here is how to connect them without Zapier or code.

Why not just use Zapier?

For connecting Ninja Forms to email marketing, a cloud automation service adds cost and a dependency on an external server. AFI runs on your site with no task limits.

What you will need

  • A WordPress site with Ninja Forms installed and at least one form.
  • A Sendy account.
  • The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).

Connect Sendy to AFI

  1. Log in to your Sendy installation.
  2. Copy your API Key from the settings.
  3. In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → Sendy.
  4. Enter your Sendy URL and API Key, then click Save.

Setting up the integration

1. Create a new integration

Go to AFI → Add New. Name it Ninja Forms to Sendy.

2. Pick your trigger

Select Ninja Forms as the form provider and choose the form you want to connect. AFI detects the fields automatically.

3. Select Sendy as the destination

Choose Sendy from the platform dropdown and pick Subscribe To List. This subscribes a contact to a Sendy list.

4. Map fields

Match each Sendy field on the left to the corresponding Ninja Forms field on the right. You can also use smart tags like {{_submission_date}} and {{utm_source}}.

5. Add conditions if needed

Only want to send certain submissions? Set up a conditional rule based on any form field value.

6. Save and test

Click Save Integration. Fill out your Ninja form and submit. Check Sendy to confirm the data arrived. If anything looks wrong, open AFI → Log to see the exact request and response.

Free vs Pro

The free version maps email and name to Sendy with unlimited submissions. Pro adds custom fields, GDPR flag, and silent opt-in. No per-submission fees on any plan.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need coding skills?

No. Everything is configured through a visual interface, including field mapping.

Will adding this slow down my form?

No. AFI sends data to the destination after the form submission completes. Your visitors see the normal success message without any delay.

Can I connect multiple Ninja Forms?

Yes. Create a separate integration for each form, or send one form to multiple platforms.
