How to Send Contact Form 7 Submissions to Lemlist

Lemlist is a email outreach platform for managing subscribers and campaigns. Contact Form 7 is everywhere on WordPress. Lemlist is where your data needs to go. Here is how to connect them without Zapier or code.

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-submission fees, no external dependencies.

What you will need

• A WordPress site with Contact Form 7 installed and at least one form.
• A Lemlist account.
• The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
