How do I integrate ConvertPlayer with AWeber?

ConvertPlayer is a powerful video conversion tool that transforms your embedded videos into subscriber generation machines. By integrating ConvertPlayer with AWeber, you can automatically capture email addresses from viewers who engage with your videos and add them directly to your AWeber email lists.

This integration allows you to:

  • Collect email addresses directly from video viewers

  • Automatically sync new subscribers to your AWeber lists

  • Create seamless follow-up email workflows

  • Track video engagement and subscriber capture metrics

Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have:

  • An active ConvertPlayer account (Basic or Pro plan)

  • An active AWeber account

  • At least one AWeber list created and ready to receive subscribers

  • Admin access to both accounts

Step-by-Step Integration Setup

Step 1: Access ConvertPlayer Integration Settings

  1. Log in to your ConvertPlayer account

  2. Navigate to your Account Settings or Integrations section

  3. Look for the Email Service Provider or Integrations tab

Step 2: Select AWeber as Your Email Provider

  1. Scroll through the list of available integrations

  2. Find and click on the AWeber option

  3. Click Connect or Setup to begin the authorization process

Step 3: Authorize the Connection

  1. You'll be redirected to AWeber's authorization page

  2. Log in to your AWeber account using your credentials

  3. Review the permissions that ConvertPlayer is requesting (typically access to lists, subscribers, and workflows)

  4. Click Allow Access to authorize ConvertPlayer to connect with your AWeber account

Step 4: Confirm Successful Connection

  1. After authorization, you'll be redirected back to ConvertPlayer

  2. You should see a confirmation message indicating the integration was successful

  3. AWeber should now appear as "Connected" in your ConvertPlayer integrations list

Step 5: Configure Your Video Call-to-Actions

Now that the integration is active, you can set up email capture on your videos:

  1. Go to your ConvertPlayer dashboard

  2. Select a video you want to add email capture to, or create a new video player

  3. Add an Email Opt-In call-to-action (CTA) to your video

  4. In the CTA settings, select AWeber as your email service provider

  5. Choose the specific AWeber list where you want subscribers to be added

  6. Customize your opt-in form fields, button text, and messaging

  7. Set when the CTA should appear (e.g., at a specific time, on pause, at video end)

Step 6: Test Your Integration

Before going live, always test your setup:

  1. Embed your ConvertPlayer video on a test page

  2. Watch the video and submit a test email address through the opt-in form

  3. Check your AWeber list to confirm the test subscriber was added successfully

  4. Verify that any welcome emails or automation sequences triggered correctly

Troubleshooting Common Issues

Integration Not Connecting

Issue: Authorization fails or connection doesn't establish

Solutions:

  • Ensure you're using your AWeber customer account (not a developer account) for authorization

  • Clear your browser cache and cookies, then try again

  • Disable browser extensions that might block pop-ups or redirects

  • Try using a different browser

Subscribers Not Being Added

Issue: Email addresses aren't appearing in your AWeber list

Solutions:

  • Verify you selected the correct AWeber list in your ConvertPlayer CTA settings

  • Check that the integration status still shows as "Connected" in ConvertPlayer

  • Ensure your AWeber list isn't at its subscriber limit

  • Test with a different email address

Authorization Expired

Issue: The connection stops working after some time

Solutions:

  • Return to ConvertPlayer integrations settings

  • Disconnect and then reconnect your AWeber account

  • Re-authorize the connection following the steps above

Managing Your Integration

Viewing Captured subscribers

  • In ConvertPlayer: View analytics and engagement metrics in your ConvertPlayer dashboard

  • In AWeber: All captured subscribers will appear in the AWeber list you specified, where you can manage them like any other subscriber

Disconnecting the Integration

If you need to disconnect ConvertPlayer from AWeber:

  1. Go to your ConvertPlayer integration settings

  2. Find AWeber in your connected integrations

  3. Click Disconnect or Remove Integration

  4. Confirm the disconnection

Note: Disconnecting will not remove existing subscribers from AWeber, but new opt-ins through ConvertPlayer videos will no longer be synced.

Best Practices

  1. Use Clear Value Propositions: Make your video opt-in offers compelling with clear benefits

  2. Timing Matters: Experiment with when your opt-in CTA appears (during vs. after video)

  3. Keep Forms Simple: Ask for only essential information (typically just email, optionally name)

  4. Set Up Welcome Sequences: Create automated welcome emails in AWeber for new subscribers

  5. Segment Your Lists: Consider using different AWeber lists for different video topics or campaigns

  6. Monitor Performance: Regularly check your conversion rates and adjust your CTAs accordingly

  7. Test Regularly: Periodically test your integration to ensure it's still working correctly
