How to integrate widgets with FreshMail

If you use FreshMail for email marketing and Getsitecontrol widgets to collect email addresses of your website visitors, you can easily connect the two apps to avoid having to manually export and import data. Simply choose the necessary mailing list and Getsitecontrol will add every new email subscriber to this list automatically.

1. Find the Integrations tab

You can connect your Getsitecontrol account to FreshMail when editing your widget. Choose the Integrations tab in the top bar.

You can also enable opt-in confirmation emails, then a letter to confirm the subscription will be sent to all new subscribers. If they don’t click the link in this email they won’t be added to your list.

4. Map your widget fields

Make sure the fields of your widget are matched to those in the FreshMail list. Click the Map widget fields button to check that the fields are properly matched. You can read more about field mapping here.
