When using Systeme.io, you’ll quickly learn that there aren’t many native integrations available.
One solution is to use Zapier or webhooks to connect to other platforms. But, this can be difficult if you don’t understand these methods.
Key Takeaways:
- Systeme.io integrates with 10 payment gateways, including Stripe
- There are native integrations for Zoom, Google Sheets, and ActiveCampaign
- Use Zapier to connect Systeme.io with over 1,500 additional apps
Systeme.io Integrations Are Very Limited

With the exception of payment gateways, Systeme.io features very few native integrations.
Although it’s an all-in-one platform, the features are pretty basic, so you’ll likely need to integrate with another app at some point.
All is not lost, though.
Thankfully, it can integrate with Zapier, significantly broadening your integration capabilities.
Using this platform will allow you to connect with over 1,500 apps. However, keep in mind that Zapier is a paid platform, and it can be quite complicated to use.
Therefore, I recommend starting with the native integrations before trying out Zapier.

How to Integrate a Payment Gateway with Systeme.io

One essential integration is a payment gateway. Well, it is if you plan to sell anything using Systeme.io. Since the platform does not have its own payment processor, it’s necessary to use a third-party app to facilitate transactions.
The most commonly used gateways are Stripe or PayPal. But plenty of other options are available, and you can connect with more than one if you want to.
First, ensure that you have an active account with your chosen gateway. If you don’t, set that up before trying to integrate it.
Once you’re ready, head to Settings > Payment gateways and click the Connect button next to the gateway logo.

Stripe is the most straightforward.
It’ll ask you to select which Stripe account you want to use. Then, you click Continue and answer a couple of quick questions, and the integration will be complete.

Once it’s integrated, you’ll see it on the Systeme.io payment gateway page.

The other payment gateways all follow a similar process. You’ll either need to enter the API credentials for your chosen gateway or log into the gateway first and then add the credentials.
Refer to your chosen gateway’s help documents on where to find API keys.

You may also need to add your Systeme.io API credentials to your gateway’s account. If so, head to Settings > Public API keys > + Create.
Once generated, head over to your payment gateway account and add them where indicated.
Available Native Integrations
To find the other native integrations, head to Settings > Integrations.
Zoom

If you want to run any type of live session in Systeme.io, you will need to use a third-party livestreaming tool.
Zoom connects directly to the platform and allows you to select that option when you set up a live meeting.

To connect your Zoom account, click on the logo found in the Integrations tab and click Connect. Log into your Zoom account and click to allow access.

Now, when you set up a meeting, you can select Zoom as your method of communication.
Google Sheets
Google Sheets is a basic integration that automatically adds data lines to your spreadsheets.
Essentially, it’s a great way to transfer all your sales data for financial management and reporting.

To integrate the app, click on the logo and pick which Google account you want to connect with. If it doesn’t display, select Use another account and log into it.
Approve Systeme.io’s access to your Google account, and the integration will be complete.
ActiveCampaign

ActiveCampaign is a well-established email marketing platform. The advantage of using this app is that it offers advanced automation and customization far beyond the capabilities of Systeme.io.
However, bear in mind that Systeme.io’s emailing feature is perfectly adequate. So, you don’t have to use ActiveCampaign, especially if you’re a beginner in email marketing.
How does this integration work?
Well, there are three available triggers:
- Contact added
- Tag added
- Tag removed
So, if you add a contact into Systeme.io, it can trigger ActiveCampaign to send out a campaign. Similarly, you may assign tags for contacts to opt in or out. When this happens, it will “tell” ActiveCampaign to start or stop sending emails.

To integrate the app, head into your ActiveCampaign account and grab the API credentials.
Follow the on-screen instructions to allow access, and you’re done!
How to Integrate Scheduling Apps with Systeme.io

Although not strictly a “proper” integration, there is a way to use calendar and scheduling apps with Systeme.io.
The platform works with Calendly, TidyCal, and YouCanBook.me and allows you to embed booking widgets onto your Systeme.io web pages.
To do this, you need to set up an event in your scheduling app and then copy the embed code.

- Open the Systeme.io page editor and drag and drop the Raw HTML element onto the page.
- Click on the page element to open the editing menu and click on Edit code. Paste in your code and hit Save.
- Exit out of the code editor, and be sure to also click Save changes found at the top-right of the screen.

You won’t be able to see the embedded calendar in the editing screen, so switch over to page preview mode to see it.
Want More Integrations? You’ll Have to Use Zapier (or Webhooks)

As I mentioned earlier, to connect Systeme.io with other apps, you’ll need to use a platform called Zapier. This acts as a bridge between the two platforms and allows data to flow between them.

There are over 1,500 possible app connections, so if the third-party platform is a popular one, you’ll likely find it available.
Zapier takes a bit of a learning curve, so if you’ve never used it before, I suggest going through its tutorials before setting up any integrations.

When you set up your first “zap,” Zapier will prompt you to connect to your Systeme.io account.
You’ll need your API credentials for this (find them in Settings > Public API). Follow the on-screen instructions, and you’ll be set up and ready to go!
What About Webhooks?

Webhooks work similarly to Zapier and send automated messages between platforms when specific events occur.
They require a decent amount of technical knowledge and are challenging to implement while avoiding problems such as inconsistent data formats and debugging issues.
With that in mind, if you want to use webhooks, get someone on board who knows what they are doing.
If you’re scratching your head in confusion, I don’t blame you. Stick to a simpler method like Zapier instead.
