How to Send Easy Digital Downloads Orders to Meta Conversions API

Meta Conversions API is a advertising platform. Easy Digital Downloads powers digital product sales on WordPress. Meta Conversions API is where your customer and order data needs to go. Here is how to connect them without Zapier or code.

Why not just use Zapier?

For connecting Easy Digital Downloads to advertising, 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 Easy Digital Downloads installed and configured.
• A Meta Conversions API account.
• The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
