How to Send Fluent Affiliate Data to MailBluster

MailBluster is a email marketing platform for managing subscribers and campaigns. Getting Fluent Affiliate data into MailBluster does not require external tools. Advanced Form Integration handles it natively, and this guide covers every step.

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 Fluent Affiliate installed and configured.
• A MailBluster account.
• The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).

Connect MailBluster to AFI

1. Log in to your MailBluster account.
2. Go to Settings → API and copy your API Key.
3. In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → MailBluster.
4. Paste the API Key and click Save Changes.

Setting up the integration

1. Create a new integration

Go to AFI → Add New. Name it Fluent Affiliate to MailBluster.

2. Pick your trigger

Select Fluent Affiliate as the form provider. AFI fires when an affiliate registers or a referral is generated, giving you access to affiliate details, referral amounts, and commission data.

3. Select MailBluster as the destination

Choose MailBluster from the platform dropdown and pick Add Lead. This creates a lead in MailBluster.

4. Map fields

Match each MailBluster field on the left to the corresponding Fluent Affiliate field on the right. Common mappings include affiliate name, email, referral ID, commission amount, and status. You can also use smart tags like {{_submission_date}}.

5. Add conditions if needed

Only want to send certain referrals? Set up a conditional rule based on any field value.

6. Save and test

Click Save Integration. Trigger a test event in Fluent Affiliate. Check MailBluster 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 MailBluster with unlimited referrals. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-referral fees on any plan.
