How to Connect OptinMonster with Eloqua

How to Connect OptinMonster with Eloqua

OptinMonster offers seamless integration with Eloqua email marketing service. Connecting OptinMonster to your Eloqua email list is very easy.

In this article, you’ll learn how to connect Eloqua with OptinMonster.

Before you start, this integration is available with a Pro and higher subscription.
All subscription plans can add custom forms using the Form Embed block.

As a best practice, we recommend you also connect your campaigns to Monster Leads as a backup.

Connect Eloqua

When you create a campaign in OptinMonster that you intend to collect leads with, you’ll want to integrate with one or more services to send those leads to.

To send leads to Eloqua, follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to the Integrations view in the campaign builder, search for and select Eloqua.
    Select Eloqua to integrate with OptinMonster.
  2. Next, select the Register Eloqua button at the top of the integration section to begin authorization.
    Register Eloqua with OptinMonster.
  3. A new window will open and you’ll be prompted to securely log into your Campaign Monitor account.

  4. Once you’ve logged in, Eloqua will confirm that this is the correct account. Click Sign In again to proceed.
  5. Finally, you’ll be asked to authorize OptinMonster to connect with Eloqua. Click the Accept button to complete the connection.
  6. Return to the OptinMonster campaign builder, enter an Eloqua Account Name (*internal use only), then select the Connect to Eloqua button.
    *The Eloqua Account Name can be anything that helps you identify the specific integration within OptinMonster. It’s possible to add more than one Eloqua integration to your account and this is an easy way to differentiate between them when assigning integrations to individual campaigns.
  7. Required: Once the Eloqua integration has been connected select the Eloqua Group you wish to send leads to from the Email Provider Groups field.
  8. When you’re finished, Save your campaign.

Add Extra Fields

Our native Eloqua integration supports the following fields:

To add more fields to your campaign you’ll want to build the form as you wish it to appear using the Eloqua form builder, and add it to your campaign using our Form Embed block.

Email Automations

To send emails automatically to new leads you’ll want to configure email automations within your Eloqua account.

Testing

We strongly recommend you test the optin form before publishing your campaign to ensure it is working as you expect.

Before you begin, please be aware of the following details when testing Eloqua integrations:

  • Previously submitted or already subscribed leads may be treated differently by Eloqua than new leads. For this reason, we recommend using a completely unique email address each time you test submit your campaign’s form. You can use a free tool like TempMail.io or learn how to create unlimited unique email addresses from a single Gmail account.
  • If the lead is captured in Eloqua but you do not receive any automated emails it indicates the integration from OptinMonster to Eloqua is correct, and the issue is with the automated email configuration. Eloqua controls email automation exclusively. If you require assistance in troubleshooting email automations we recommend reaching out to Eloqua support directly.

Get started testing with the Live Site Inspector tool explained in our guide on how to test an OptinMonster campaign.

Spin-a-Wheel Support

If you are configuring a Gamified spin-to-win campaign, spin-a-wheel support is not available at this time to send the coupon data to Eloqua.

OptinMonster has transformed our business. Before integrating their optins, our clients saw a 2% conversion rate from web traffic, which is slightly above the standard for their industry. With the integration of OptinMonster’s lightbox popup, exit-intent technology, split testing, and other tools, our client’s conversion rates soared by an unprecedented 500%. They attracted substantially more customers while spending less on digital advertising. Their success propelled them to the top of their markets, outperforming national chains and other medical spas with much bigger marketing budgets. Our client’s success in their market has distinguished us in our own. We are now one of the most sought-after marketing firms in the industry of aesthetic medicine. We know that the integration of OptinMonster, more than any other tool or marketing strategy, has supported this growth and achievement.

Through OptinMonster’s exit-intent popups, we have more than doubled our sales conversion rate. Best of all is the compound effect of using OptinMonster over a long period of time—more conversions mean more customers, which means more word of mouth.
