Cakemail is a email marketing platform for managing subscribers and campaigns. Getting SureCart order 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 order 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 SureCart installed and configured.
  • A Cakemail account.
  • The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).

Connect Cakemail to AFI

  1. Log in to your Cakemail account.
  2. Go to Settings → API and copy your API Key.
  3. In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → Cakemail.
  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 SureCart to Cakemail.

2. Pick your trigger

Select SureCart as the form provider. AFI fires when a checkout or order is completed, giving you access to customer details, product information, and order totals.

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 SureCart 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 SureCart store. 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 orders. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-order fees on any plan.

Frequently asked questions

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