How to Send Email Subscribers Data to QuickBooks Online

QuickBooks Online is an accounting platform for managing finances. Email Subscribers manages a subscriber joins a list or confirms their subscription, but sending that data to external platforms needs an integration. AFI bridges that gap to QuickBooks Online.

Why not just use Zapier?

For connecting Email Subscribers to accounting, 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 Email Subscribers installed and configured.
• A QuickBooks Online account.
• The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).

Connect QuickBooks Online to AFI

QuickBooks Online uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication. In AFI → Settings → QuickBooks Online, click Authorize and grant access. This is a one-time step.

Setting up the integration

1. Create a new integration

Go to AFI → Add New. Name it Email Subscribers to QuickBooks Online.

2. Pick your trigger

Select Email Subscribers as the form provider. AFI fires when a subscriber joins a list or confirms their subscription, giving you access to subscriber name, email, list ID, and subscription status.

3. Select QuickBooks Online as the destination

Choose QuickBooks Online from the platform dropdown and pick Create Customer. This creates a customer in QuickBooks Online.

4. Map fields

Match each QuickBooks Online field on the left to the corresponding Email Subscribers field on the right. Common mappings include subscriber name, email, list ID, and subscription status. You can also use smart tags like {{_submission_date}}.

5. Add conditions if needed

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

6. Save and test

Click Save Integration. Trigger a test event in Email Subscribers. Check QuickBooks Online 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 name, email, and phone to QuickBooks Online with unlimited records. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-record fees on any plan.
