How to Send SliceWP Data to Cakemail
Cakemail is a email marketing platform for managing subscribers and campaigns. Getting SliceWP data into Cakemail does not require external tools. Advanced Form Integration handles it natively, and this guide covers every step.
The direct approach
AFI delivers affiliate and referral data straight from WordPress to Cakemail. No third-party cloud, no per-task fees, and every request is logged for troubleshooting.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with SliceWP installed and configured.
- A Cakemail account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect Cakemail to AFI
- Log in to your Cakemail account.
- Go to Settings → API and copy your API Key.
- In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → Cakemail.
- Paste the API Key and click Save Changes.
Setting up the integration
1. Create a new integration
Go to AFI → Add New. Name it SliceWP to Cakemail.
2. Pick your trigger
Select SliceWP as the form provider. AFI fires when an affiliate registers or a commission is recorded, giving you access to affiliate details, referral amounts, and commission data.
3. Select Cakemail as the destination
Choose Cakemail from the platform dropdown and pick Add Contact. This adds a contact to a Cakemail list.
4. Map fields
Match each Cakemail field on the left to the corresponding SliceWP 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 SliceWP. Check Cakemail 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 and name to Cakemail with unlimited referrals. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-referral fees on any plan.
