How to Send WooCommerce Orders to Acumbamail
Acumbamail is a email marketing platform for managing subscribers and campaigns. WooCommerce captures orders beautifully, but sending that data to external platforms needs an integration. AFI bridges that gap to Acumbamail. Here is the full setup.
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-order fees, no external dependencies.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with WooCommerce installed and configured.
- A Acumbamail account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect Acumbamail to AFI
- Log in to your Acumbamail account.
- Go to Settings → API and copy your API Key.
- In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → Acumbamail.
- Paste the API Key and click Save Changes.
Setting up the integration
1. Create a new integration
Go to AFI → Add New. Name it WooCommerce to Acumbamail.
2. Pick your trigger
Select WooCommerce as the form provider. AFI fires when an order status changes, giving you access to customer details, billing and shipping addresses, line items, totals, and payment method.
3. Select Acumbamail as the destination
Choose Acumbamail from the platform dropdown and pick Add Subscriber. This adds a subscriber to an Acumbamail list.
4. Map fields
Match each Acumbamail field on the left to the corresponding WooCommerce order field on the right. Common mappings include customer name, email, phone, billing address, order total, and product details. You can also use smart tags like {{_submission_date}}.
5. Add conditions if needed
Only want to send certain orders? Set up a conditional rule. For example, only sync orders above a specific total, or only completed orders.
6. Save and test
Click Save Integration. Place a test order in your WooCommerce store. Check Acumbamail 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 Acumbamail with unlimited orders. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-order fees on any plan.
Frequently asked questions
Which WooCommerce events trigger the integration?
AFI fires when an order status changes (for example, pending to processing, or processing to completed). This covers new orders, successful payments, refunds, and cancellations.
Will adding this slow down my checkout?
No. AFI sends data to the destination after the order is processed. Your customers complete checkout normally without any delay.
Can I send orders to multiple platforms?
Yes. Create a separate integration for each destination, and every order flows to all of them simultaneously.
