How to Send Charitable Data to Sendy

Sendy is a email marketing platform for managing subscribers and campaigns. Here is how to pipe Charitable donation straight into Sendy using Advanced Form Integration. The setup takes about five minutes and runs entirely on your own server.

The direct approach

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

What you will need

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

Connect Sendy to AFI

1. Log in to your Sendy installation.
2. Copy your API Key from the settings.
3. In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → Sendy.
4. Enter your Sendy URL and API Key, then click Save.

Setting up the integration

1. Create a new integration

Go to AFI → Add New. Name it Charitable to Sendy.

2. Pick your trigger

Select Charitable as the form provider. AFI fires when a donation is made through a fundraising campaign, giving you access to donor name, email, donation amount, campaign ID, and gateway.

3. Select Sendy as the destination

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

4. Map fields

Match each Sendy field on the left to the corresponding Charitable field on the right. Common mappings include donor name, email, donation amount, campaign ID, and gateway. 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 Charitable. Check Sendy 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 Sendy with unlimited records. Pro adds custom fields, GDPR flag, and silent opt-in. No per-record fees on any plan.
