How to Send BuddyBoss Data to MailPoet

MailPoet is a email marketing platform for managing subscribers and campaigns. BuddyBoss powers your WordPress community. MailPoet is where member data needs to go. Here is how to connect them without Zapier or code.

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-registration fees, no external dependencies.

What you will need

• A WordPress site with BuddyBoss installed and configured.
• A MailPoet account.
• The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).

Connect MailPoet to AFI

1. MailPoet runs inside WordPress, so no external API key is needed.
2. Make sure the MailPoet plugin is installed and activated.
3. In AFI, select MailPoet as the action platform.
4. Choose a list and map your fields.

Setting up the integration

1. Create a new integration

Go to AFI → Add New. Name it BuddyBoss to MailPoet.

2. Pick your trigger

Select BuddyBoss as the form provider. AFI fires when a member registers, updates their profile, or joins a group, giving you access to member details, profile fields, and activity data.

3. Select MailPoet as the destination

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

4. Map fields

Match each MailPoet field on the left to the corresponding BuddyBoss field on the right. Common mappings include member name, email, profile data, and activity type. You can also use smart tags like {{_submission_date}}.

5. Add conditions if needed

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

6. Save and test

Click Save Integration. Trigger a test a member registers, updates their profile, or joins a group in BuddyBoss. Check MailPoet 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, first name, and last name to MailPoet with unlimited events. Pro adds custom subscriber field mapping. No per-event fees on any plan.

Frequently asked questions

Which BuddyBoss events trigger the integration?

AFI fires when a member registers, updates their profile, or joins a group. This covers member registrations, profile updates, and group joins.

Will adding this slow down my site?

No. AFI sends data to the destination after the community event completes. Your members are not affected.

Can I send member data to multiple platforms?

Yes. Create a separate integration for each destination, and every event flows to all of them simultaneously.
