Campaign Monitor Integrations: Native, Zapier, and API
Campaign Monitor lists 90+ integrations across roughly 23 directory categories, and layers a first-class Zapier app on top reaching 9,000+ other apps. Underneath both sits one REST API — v3.3 at api.createsend.com — with 11 resource families and 7 official client libraries. The catalogue tells you who the product is built for: agencies and mid-market marketing teams running campaigns off CRM and e-commerce data, not developers wiring a transactional pipeline.
Two consequences follow. The deepest connectors are the ones Campaign Monitor builds itself — Salesforce, Shopify, WordPress, Raiser’s Edge NXT — while a long tail of partner listings vary in depth and support status. And anything transactional runs through a separate product gated behind a monthly plan and verified authentication. If your shortlist is dominated by order confirmations rather than newsletters, check that gate first.

Integrations directory
The 25 integrations below are the ones buyers shortlist most, grouped into six working categories rather than the 23 official ones. NATIVE cards are listed in the Campaign Monitor directory; ZAPIER cards run through the Zapier bridge and inherit its plan and task limits. Full catalogue: the official directory. Escape hatch: the v3.3 API reference.

CRM and customer data (6)
CRM is where the gap between a first-party connector and a partner listing matters most. Salesforce is built by Campaign Monitor and lets users compose and report on email inside Salesforce records; HubSpot, Dynamics and Zoho are list-sync connectors — a materially thinner contract that rarely maps more than email plus a few custom fields.

E-commerce (3)
Shopify is the flagship: it syncs customer and order data so segments can be built on real purchase behaviour. WooCommerce is the cautionary tale — two separate listings with different jobs. The transactional-email one matters if you are pointing a store at smtp.api.createsend.com; the store-data sync plugin is flagged in the directory as unsupported, so verify its status before planning around it.

Replaces WooCommerce’s plain default order mail with on-brand Campaign Monitor templates — the flagship SMTP relay use case.
Store-data sync plugin, currently flagged in the official directory as unsupported while updates are in progress.
CMS and signup forms (5)
The highest-volume category for small teams, and the one with the most overlap. The official plugin covers basic subscribe forms; Gravity Forms, OptinMonster and Jotform bring a stronger builder feeding the same lists. Uncanny Automator is the outlier: it triggers on site activity and plugin events, not form submits.
Official plugin that drops subscribe forms onto your site and syncs signups straight into Campaign Monitor lists.
Syncs WordPress users to Campaign Monitor based on real-time site activity and plugin events, not just form submits.
Feeds submissions from the Gravity Forms WordPress builder into Campaign Monitor subscriber lists.

Automation and data syncing (3)
The Zapier app is the widest bridge in the catalogue: 9,000+ connected apps, 5 triggers and 5 actions, one of which is Send Smart Transactional Email — the only no-code route to transactional sending, and it works precisely because smart transactional email is API-triggered. Reach for Skyvia when the source of truth is a database rather than a SaaS app.
General-purpose bridge to 9,000+ apps with no-code triggers and actions, including Send Smart Transactional Email.
Visual automation builder for multi-step scenarios that read from and write to Campaign Monitor.
Keeps lists and segments fresh with scheduled bi-directional syncing against databases and cloud apps.
Analytics and advertising (4)
Google Analytics link tagging is free and should be on before any campaign ships — it is the only way email-driven sessions become attributable outside Campaign Monitor’s own reports. On paid media, AdRoll pushes subscribers into retargeting audiences while Facebook Lead Ads runs the reverse direction through Zapier.
Tags campaign links so email-driven sessions, goals and conversions are attributable in Google Analytics.

Frequently asked questions
How many integrations does Campaign Monitor actually have?
The official directory lists 90+ integrations across roughly 23 categories — smaller than the counts advertised by Mailchimp. Zapier adds 9,000+ reachable apps on top, and the v3.3 API covers what neither route handles. Treat 90+ as the connectors you do not have to build.
Does Campaign Monitor integrate with Salesforce and HubSpot?
Both, at different depths. Campaign Monitor for Salesforce is first-party and lets Salesforce users build, send and report on email from inside Salesforce records. The HubSpot integration only keeps CRM records and lists aligned — useful, but not the same thing. Dynamics 365 and Zoho CRM sit in that same sync tier.
How do I sync WordPress signups into a Campaign Monitor list?
Three routes, in ascending order of control. The official plugin adds subscribe forms and syncs signups directly. Gravity Forms, OptinMonster and Jotform give you a real form builder feeding the same lists. Uncanny Automator triggers on site activity and plugin events instead, which suits membership or LMS state. Beyond that, POST /subscribers/{listID} on the v3.3 API does it in a few lines.
Can I use Zapier or Make with Campaign Monitor?
Yes. Campaign Monitor is a first-class Zapier app connected to 9,000+ apps, with triggers for New Subscriber, New Email Open, New Click Through, New Bounce and New Unsubscribe, and actions for Add Subscriber, Update Subscriber, Unsubscribe, Find or Create Subscriber and Send Smart Transactional Email. Make and Skyvia are directory-listed alternatives with different pricing models.
How do I replace WooCommerce transactional emails with Campaign Monitor templates?
Use the WooCommerce Transactional Emails listing, which swaps WooCommerce’s default plain order mail for Campaign Monitor templates. Three prerequisites apply first: a monthly plan rather than a credit balance, the transactional permission on the account, and verified authentication with the cm._domainkey DKIM record and the include:_spf.createsend.com SPF entry published. Only classic transactional email relays over smtp.api.createsend.com.
What if the integration I need is not in the directory?
Check Zapier first, then fall back to the API. The v3.3 REST API exposes 11 resource families and 7 official client libraries, of which Ruby and Java are the most actively maintained. List webhooks fire on Subscribe, Deactivate, Update, Bounce and Spam events, usually removing the need for polling. If the gap is a connector a competitor ships natively, compare against Constant Contact, Brevo or GetResponse first.
