Use the ActiveCampaign add-on to automatically add new subscribers to your account and manage email marketing from WordPress.
Setup takes only a few seconds. This guide shows you how to connect your account and map custom fields.
Install the ActiveCampaign add-on
This is a premium feature. You must have an active Noptin license to access it.
You can install the ActiveCampaign add-on in 2 ways:
Method 1: Install from the Noptin Extensions Page
Use this method in case you’ve already installed Noptin and activated your license key.
- Log in to your WordPress admin dashboard.
- Go to Noptin → Add-ons, then click View all add-ons.
- Search for ActiveCampaign in the search box.
- Click Install to install and activate the extension.
Method 2: Install Manually
Use this method only if Noptin is not yet installed.
- Download the add-on from your Noptin account.
- Log in to your WordPress admin dashboard.
- Go to Plugins > Add New and click Upload Plugin.
- Select the downloaded add-on file and upload it.
- Click Install Now.
- After the installation finishes, click Activate Plugin.
Find Your ActiveCampaign API Details
To find your ActiveCampaign API URL and API key, follow these steps:
- Log in to your ActiveCampaign account.
- Click Settings, the gear icon at the bottom left of the sidebar.
- In the Account Settings menu, click Developer.
- In the API Access section, find your API URL and API Key.
- Copy both values for the next step.
Set Up the ActiveCampaign Add-on
In your WordPress admin dashboard, go to Noptin → Settings → Integrations → ActiveCampaign and paste the API URL and API key from the previous step.
Click Save settings to connect your account.
If the connection succeeds, Noptin will prompt you to set the default ActiveCampaign list, tags, and automation.
- Default List – In ActiveCampaign, lists organize subscribers.
- Default Tags – Tags label contacts by interest, action, or source.
- Default Automations – Automate actions based on subscriber activity.
Save your changes once done.
Noptin will add new subscribers to your ActiveCampaign account using the defaults you set above unless you change this for a specific subscription form or automation rule.
Map custom fields
After connecting your ActiveCampaign account, map your Noptin custom fields to the matching ActiveCampaign fields.
You can map fields such as first name, last name, and phone number to their corresponding ActiveCampaign fields.
This way, when someone subscribes through Noptin, their information is sent to the matching fields in their ActiveCampaign contact profile.
To set up field mapping:
- Go to Noptin → Settings → Custom Fields.
- Click on the custom field you want to edit.
- Scroll down to the ActiveCampaign Equivalent section.
- Select the corresponding ActiveCampaign field from the dropdown.
- Click Save Settings to apply your changes.
