How to Send GiveWP Data to sevdesk
sevdesk is an accounting platform for managing finances. If you want GiveWP donation synced to sevdesk, you could pay for a cloud automation service. Or you could do it directly from WordPress. This is the direct route.
Why not just use Zapier?
For connecting GiveWP to accounting, a cloud automation service adds cost and a dependency on an external server. AFI runs on your site with no task limits.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with GiveWP installed and configured.
- A sevdesk account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect sevdesk to AFI
sevdesk uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication. In AFI → Settings → sevdesk, 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 GiveWP to sevdesk.
2. Pick your trigger
Select GiveWP as the form provider. AFI fires when a donation is made, giving you access to donor name, email, donation amount, form ID, and payment method.
3. Select sevdesk as the destination
Choose sevdesk from the platform dropdown and pick Add Contact. This creates a contact in sevdesk.
4. Map fields
Match each sevdesk field on the left to the corresponding GiveWP field on the right. Common mappings include donor name, email, donation amount, form ID, and payment method. You can also use smart tags like {{_submission_date}}.
5. Add conditions if needed
Only want to send certain records? Set up a conditional rule based on any field value.
6. Save and test
Click Save Integration. Trigger a test event in GiveWP. Check sevdesk 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 name and email to sevdesk with unlimited records. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-record fees on any plan.
