How to Send Paid Memberships Pro Data to Mailercloud
Mailercloud is a email marketing platform for managing subscribers and campaigns. Here is how to pipe Paid Memberships Pro membership straight into Mailercloud using Advanced Form Integration. The setup takes about five minutes and runs entirely on your own server.
Skip the automation middleman
Rather than routing data through a third-party cloud, AFI sends it directly from your WordPress server to email marketing. No task meter, no monthly bill.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with Paid Memberships Pro installed and configured.
- A Mailercloud account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect Mailercloud to AFI
- Log in to your Mailercloud account.
- Copy your API Key from settings.
- In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → Mailercloud.
- Paste the API Key and click Save Changes.
Setting up the integration
1. Create a new integration
Go to AFI → Add New. Name it Paid Memberships Pro to Mailercloud.
2. Pick your trigger
Select Paid Memberships Pro as the form provider. AFI fires when a member checks out or a membership level changes, giving you access to member name, email, membership level, payment amount, and order ID.
3. Select Mailercloud as the destination
Choose Mailercloud from the platform dropdown and pick Add Subscriber. This adds a subscriber to Mailercloud.
4. Map fields
Match each Mailercloud field on the left to the corresponding Paid Memberships Pro field on the right. Common mappings include member name, email, membership level, payment amount, and order ID. 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 Paid Memberships Pro. Check Mailercloud 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 Mailercloud with unlimited records. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-record fees on any plan.
