Data Passed to GetResponse
ThriveCart sends the following data to GetResponse during the integration:
- Customer name
- Customer email address
- Additional notes (when applicable)
Important Note About Double Opt-In
By default, GetResponse enables double opt-in for new campaigns. This means subscribers receive a confirmation email before being added to your list, potentially reducing conversions and preventing automatic list additions from ThriveCart.
To ensure a smoother automation experience, you can switch to single opt-in, allowing customers to be added immediately after their purchase or sign-up.
Follow these steps to disable double opt-in in GetResponse:
- Log in to your GetResponse account.
- Go to Lists and select the campaign you want to modify.
- Click Settings.
- Under Subscription Settings, toggle Double Opt-In off for web subscriptions and API integrations.
- Save your changes.
Once this is done, ThriveCart will automatically add customers to your GetResponse lists as they complete your checkout process—no confirmation required.
