How to Send Easy Digital Downloads Orders to IXACT Contact
IXACT Contact is a real estate CRM that helps you manage contacts and track interactions. Getting Easy Digital Downloads order data into IXACT Contact does not require external tools. Advanced Form Integration handles it natively, and this guide covers every step.
Skip the automation middleman
Rather than routing order data through a third-party cloud, AFI sends it directly from your WordPress server to real estate CRM. No task meter, no monthly bill.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with Easy Digital Downloads installed and configured.
- A IXACT Contact account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect IXACT Contact to AFI
IXACT Contact uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication. In AFI → Settings → IXACT Contact, 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 Easy Digital Downloads to IXACT Contact.
2. Pick your trigger
Select Easy Digital Downloads as the form provider. AFI fires when a purchase is completed, giving you access to customer details, product information, payment data, and download links.
3. Select IXACT Contact as the destination
Choose IXACT Contact from the platform dropdown and pick Add Contact. This creates a contact in IXACT Contact.
4. Map fields
Match each IXACT Contact field on the left to the corresponding Easy Digital Downloads field on the right. Common mappings include customer name, email, product details, and order total. You can also use smart tags like {{_submission_date}}.
5. Add conditions if needed
Only want to send certain purchases? Set up a conditional rule. For example, only sync completed payments or specific products.
6. Save and test
Click Save Integration. Place a test purchase in your Easy Digital Downloads store. Check IXACT Contact to confirm the data arrived. If anything looks wrong, open AFI → Log to see the exact request and response.
Free vs Pro
