Connecting an autoresponder

Email marketing remains one of the most powerful tools for driving sales, nurturing relationships, and keeping your audience engaged long after checkout. With ThriveCart’s autoresponder integrations, you can add customers to your email list automatically the moment they make a purchase—ensuring every buyer is seamlessly added to your marketing funnel. 

Whether you use ActiveCampaign, MailChimp, HubSpot, or another provider, ThriveCart makes email marketing automation setup effortless to send follow-ups, deliver content, and run targeted campaigns that boost retention and revenue, all without the need for third-party workarounds. 


This ThriveCart email integration guide will introduce you to email marketing tools that allow for seamless email marketing automation so that you can set it and forget it.

Direct integrations

ThriveCart integrates with a range of autoresponder tools. This currently includes:

You can integrate one autoresponder account per service, but you can connect to multiple different services.

You’ll be able to connect your autoresponder of choice by heading to Settings > Integrations, where you’ll be able to login or add API credentials to connect your account. Instructions for each integration vary slightly and can be found linked above. 

Once you connect an email service to ThriveCart, you can use the various automations  across the different areas of the platform to have contacts added.

HTML Form integrations

If you’re using an autoresponder that’s not listed above, then you can still often have customers added to your autoresponder using the Custom HTML behaviour rule.

This allows you to take the HTML form embed code you would normally put on your website to collect opt-ins and have ThriveCart process this in the background.

See our helpdesk article on this here.

Zapier integrations

We also have the most powerful Zapier app for a cart platform available which offers integration with even more autoresponder platforms.

Using Zapier you can have actions occur for a wide range of triggers (see our Zapier article here). This then allows you to pass customer and order information through to many autoresponders.

If you have any questions or need any assistance please don’t hesitate to get in touch with our fast and friendly support team.
