How to Send FluentCart Orders to Twilio

Twilio is a SMS and voice platform. Here is how to pipe FluentCart order data straight into Twilio using Advanced Form Integration. The setup takes about five minutes and runs entirely on your own server.

Skip the automation middleman

Rather than routing order data through a third-party cloud, AFI sends it directly from your WordPress server to SMS and voice. No task meter, no monthly bill.

What you will need

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

Connect Twilio to AFI

1. Get your Twilio Account SID and Auth Token.
2. In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → Twilio.
3. Enter the SID and Token.
4. Click Save Changes.

Setting up the integration

1. Create a new integration

Go to AFI → Add New. Name it FluentCart to Twilio.

2. Pick your trigger

Select FluentCart as the form provider. AFI fires when an order is placed, giving you access to customer details, product information, and order totals.

3. Select Twilio as the destination

Choose Twilio from the platform dropdown and pick Send SMS. This sends an SMS via Twilio.

4. Map fields

Match each Twilio field on the left to the corresponding FluentCart 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 orders? Set up a conditional rule based on any field value.

6. Save and test

Click Save Integration. Place a test order in your FluentCart store. Check Twilio 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 to number and message body to Twilio with unlimited orders. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-order fees on any plan.

Frequently asked questions

Which FluentCart events trigger the integration?

AFI fires when an order is placed. This covers new orders, customer details, and product information.

Will adding this slow down my checkout?

No. AFI sends data to the destination after the order is processed. Your customers complete checkout normally without any delay.

Can I send orders to multiple platforms?

Yes. Create a separate integration for each destination, and every order flows to all of them simultaneously.
