WP Smart Consent adds a GDPR-compliant opt-in checkbox to WooCommerce. When a customer ticks it and places an order, their details are automatically forwarded to Omnisend in real time.

The connection explained
WP Smart Consent adds a GDPR-compliant opt-in checkbox to the checkout. It is unchecked by default, so the customer must actively tick it to subscribe. When they do and places an order, WP Smart Consent immediately captures the consent with a timestamp and stores it in your WordPress database, giving you a complete audit trail without any third-party dependency. In the same request, it calls the Omnisend API and creates or updates a contact with their name, email address, and any custom fields you have mapped in the WP Smart Consent dashboard. Your automations in Omnisend fire instantly, just as if the subscriber had come through a native Omnisend form. No cron delays. No code.

Consent is logged locally in your WordPress database with the subscriber's email, the source plugin name, and a timestamp, giving you a complete audit trail without any third-party dependency.
