How to Send SureCart Orders to SendGrid

SendGrid is a email delivery platform for managing subscribers and campaigns. SureCart handles a checkout or order is completed on your WordPress site. SendGrid is where that data needs to go. Here is how to connect them without Zapier or code.

Why not just use Zapier?

For connecting email delivery, 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 SureCart installed and configured.
• A SendGrid account.
• The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).

Connect SendGrid to AFI

1. Log in to your SendGrid account.
2. Go to Settings → API Keys and create a key.
3. In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → SendGrid.
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 SendGrid.

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 SendGrid as the destination

Choose SendGrid from the platform dropdown and pick Add Contact. This adds a contact to a SendGrid list.

4. Map fields

Match each SendGrid 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 SendGrid 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 SendGrid with unlimited orders. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-order fees on any plan.

Frequently asked questions

Which SureCart events trigger the integration?

AFI fires when a checkout or order is completed. 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.
