How to Send Paid Memberships Pro Data to SharpSpring

SharpSpring is a marketing automation platform. Paid Memberships Pro manages a member checks out or a membership level changes, but sending that data to external platforms needs an integration. AFI bridges that gap to SharpSpring.

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-membership fees, no external dependencies.

What you will need

• A WordPress site with Paid Memberships Pro installed and configured.
• A SharpSpring account.
• The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).

Connect SharpSpring to AFI

1. Log in to your SharpSpring account.
2. Go to Settings → API and copy your API Key and Secret.
3. In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → SharpSpring.
4. Enter the API Key and Secret, then click Save.

Setting up the integration

1. Create a new integration

Go to AFI → Add New. Name it Paid Memberships Pro to SharpSpring.

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 SharpSpring as the destination

Choose SharpSpring from the platform dropdown and pick Add Lead. This creates or updates a lead in SharpSpring.

4. Map fields

Match each SharpSpring 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 SharpSpring 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 SharpSpring with unlimited records. Pro adds custom field mapping and campaign assignment. No per-record fees on any plan.
