Integrate ActiveCampaign with Leadpages – Leadpages Knowledge Base

ActiveCampaign is a powerful email marketing and automation platform. When you integrate your account with Leadpages, you can send new subscribers directly to your ActiveCampaign forms and lists.

The fine print

ActiveCampaign is available with all of our conversion tools, including: landing pages, sites, pop-ups, and alert bars.
At least one form must be created within ActiveCampaign before integrating with Leadpages.
Add ActiveCampaign's CAPTCHA field to your form will result in leads not being sent from Leadpages to ActiveCampaign. Make sure to remove the CAPTCHA field in ActiveCampaign and utilize Leadpages reCAPTCHA instead.

Integrate your account

Before sending leads to ActiveCampaign, you’ll need to connect your account to Leadpages. Follow our guide here.

Send leads to ActiveCampaign

Now that you’ve integrated at the account level, you can use ActiveCampaign with any asset—whether that’s a form on a page or a pop-up. Follow these steps to choose an integration as the destination for your leads.

Here are some additional notes to keep in mind when you set ActiveCampaign up within Leadpages:

You can send leads to a specific form or list in your ActiveCampaign account.
By default, ActiveCampaign forms will use a confirmed opt-in process, so new contacts will receive a confirmation email when they join. To turn this feature off (and use single opt-in instead), follow ActiveCampaign’s guide here: How do I enable single opt in confirmation?

Custom fields

It’s possible to set up custom fields from your ActiveCampaign account. To learn how, check out ActiveCampaign’s article: Custom fields. By default, all ActiveCampaign forms will include full name and email fields.

In order to create custom fields in ActiveCampaign for use in Leadpages, a form must be created in ActiveCampaign.

Make sure you add any custom fields you’d like to use to an ActiveCampaign form. Then, select that form in the integration settings in any page or pop-up to add your custom fields.

More on custom fields in our form widget article.

TIP: If your ActiveCampaign custom fields are not appearing in Leadpages after refreshing your lists and forms, try selecting the list associated with the form where the custom fields are located instead of the form.
