iContact
Add iContact to your product for your customers, and give your AI agents governed access to it.
Embed an iContact integration so your customers can run their own email marketing from inside your product using their own account, lists, and sending reputation. Product events can add a contact to a list or start a send, so lifecycle messaging follows what a user actually did rather than a nightly export. fastn handles per-customer authorisation, engagement event delivery, and API upkeep.
In your product
Embedded for your customers. Per-tenant auth, no per-customer code, maintained by fastn.
Let customers sync contacts from your product into their own iContact lists, mapped to their custom fields.
Subscribe or unsubscribe a contact from your product so consent stays consistent in both systems.
Send or schedule a campaign to a list when something happens in your product.
Read opens, clicks, bounces, and unsubscribes back as events your product can act on per tenant.
For your AI agents
Governed, audited access for the agents you build, through the MCP server.
An agent checks a contact's list membership and engagement before suggesting a next send.
An agent adds a contact to a list or triggers a campaign within governed permissions, with the action logged.
An agent reacts to a bounce or unsubscribe and updates the record in your product.
Example prompt
Show last month's campaigns with their open and click rates, then list contacts who bounced twice.

- 04Call them from your product, or expose them to an agent through the MCP server.
Why teams use the iContact integration
What you get by embedding it with fastn instead of building it yourself.
- Ship an iContact integration without building it. Your customers connect their own iContact account inside your product and work their campaigns, segments and subscribers there, with no per-customer code on your side.
- Handle the part that actually costs time: engagement data arrives as a high-volume event stream, so ordering and deduplication matter. fastn owns the auth, token refresh, rate limits, pagination and breaking-change fixes, so an iContact update is not your on-call problem.
- One integration serves your product and your agents. The same governed iContact connection powers in-product features and gives AI agents scoped, audited access, so you trigger and measure campaigns from inside your product without wiring it twice.

iContact integration FAQ
How do I add an iContact integration to my product?
Enable the iContact connector in your fastn dashboard, then let each customer authenticate their own iContact account. fastn handles the OAuth flow, token storage and refresh per tenant, so there is no iContact client code in your app and no per-customer branch in your codebase. Setup is 4 steps.
Do my customers each connect their own iContact account?
Yes. Every connection is scoped to the individual customer, so each authorises their own iContact account and only ever sees their own campaigns, segments and subscribers. That per-tenant isolation is the point of an embedded integration: you support the long tail of customer setups without maintaining an integration per customer.
Can AI agents use this iContact integration?
Yes. The same connection is exposed to your agents through the fastn MCP gateway, with permissions scoped per tenant and every call audited. An agent checks a contact's list membership and engagement before suggesting a next send.
Who maintains the iContact integration?
fastn does. When iContact changes an endpoint, deprecates a field or alters its auth, the fix lands in the connector rather than in your backlog, and your customers' connections keep working.
Can I trigger an iContact campaign from an event in my product?
Yes. Product events can start a campaign, add a contact to a segment, or enrol someone in a journey, so lifecycle messaging follows what a user actually did rather than a nightly export.
Can I read engagement results back from iContact?
Yes. Results come back scoped per tenant, so your product can act on them without one customer's data mixing with another's. What you get depends on the channel: opens, clicks, bounces and unsubscribes where there are sends, and impressions, spend and conversions where there are campaigns.
What can I build with the iContact integration?
A common starting point: sync contacts from your product into their own iContact lists, mapped to their custom fields. Teams also use it for the other use cases listed above, and expose it to agents for governed reads and writes.
How much does the iContact integration cost?
It is included. Pricing is based on connected accounts, not on how many connectors you enable, so adding iContact does not change your per-connector cost. You can start free with 3 connected accounts.
