Charitable and Mailster: Grow Your Donor List With Every Donation

The Charitable + Mailster integration adds a newsletter opt-in checkbox directly to your donation forms. When a donor gives, they can subscribe to your Mailster list in a single click – no separate signup form required.

Manual list-building is slow and error-prone. This integration removes that friction entirely. Your Mailster subscriber list grows automatically every time someone completes a donation.

The result is a healthier email list full of people who are already invested in your cause. Engage them with updates, impact stories, and future campaigns – all powered by Mailster.

Why You’ll Love Charitable + Mailster

Simple Setup Process

Connect Mailster to Charitable in Minutes

Mailster runs inside WordPress, which means the Charitable + Mailster connection skips the complicated API setup entirely.

Install Charitable Newsletter Connect, make sure Mailster is active, and the two tools find each other automatically.

There are no external accounts to link, no credentials to copy, and no webhooks to configure. The entire setup takes under 15 minutes for most users.

Zero-Friction List Building

Choose Exactly How Donors Subscribe to Your List

Charitable gives you three opt-in modes to match your strategy. Use an unchecked checkbox for full donor consent, a pre-checked checkbox for higher opt-in rates, or silent automatic subscription for frictionless list growth.

You can set a global default for your whole site and then override it for individual campaigns.

A fundraising event campaign might use automatic opt-in while a donation page for a sensitive cause uses an unchecked checkbox.
