How to Send Fluent Affiliate Data to Vertical Response

Vertical Response is a email marketing platform for managing subscribers and campaigns. Getting Fluent Affiliate data into Vertical Response does not require external tools. Advanced Form Integration handles it natively, and this guide covers every step.

The direct approach

AFI delivers affiliate and referral data straight from WordPress to Vertical Response. No third-party cloud, no per-task fees, and every request is logged for troubleshooting.

What you will need

• A WordPress site with Fluent Affiliate installed and configured.
• A Vertical Response account.
• The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).

Connect Vertical Response to AFI

1. Log in to your Vertical Response account.
2. Go to Settings → API and copy your API Key.
3. In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → Vertical Response.
4. Paste the API Key and click Save Changes.

Setting up the integration

1. Create a new integration

Go to AFI → Add New. Name it Fluent Affiliate to Vertical Response.

2. Pick your trigger

Select Fluent Affiliate as the form provider. AFI fires when an affiliate registers or a referral is generated, giving you access to affiliate details, referral amounts, and commission data.

3. Select Vertical Response as the destination

Choose Vertical Response from the platform dropdown and pick Add Contact. This adds a contact to a Vertical Response list.

4. Map fields

Match each Vertical Response field on the left to the corresponding Fluent Affiliate field on the right. Common mappings include affiliate name, email, referral ID, commission amount, and status. You can also use smart tags like {{_submission_date}}.

5. Add conditions if needed

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

6. Save and test

Click Save Integration. Trigger a test event in Fluent Affiliate. Check Vertical Response 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 Vertical Response with unlimited referrals. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-referral fees on any plan.
