How to Send Fluent Affiliate Data to SlickText
SlickText is a SMS marketing platform. Every Fluent Affiliate an affiliate registers or a referral is generated should flow into SlickText automatically. This guide shows how to set that up in five minutes.
Skip the automation middleman
Rather than routing data through a third-party cloud, AFI sends it directly from your WordPress server to SMS marketing. No task meter, no monthly bill.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with Fluent Affiliate installed and configured.
- A SlickText account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect SlickText to AFI
- Log in to your SlickText account.
- Go to Settings → API and copy your API Key.
- In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → SlickText.
- 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 SlickText.
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 SlickText as the destination
Choose SlickText from the platform dropdown and pick Add Subscriber. This opts in a contact to a SlickText textword list.
4. Map fields
Match each SlickText 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 SlickText 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 phone number (E.164 format) to SlickText with unlimited referrals. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-referral fees on any plan.
