What Is MEC Zapier Integration?
MEC Zapier Integration is developed by Modern Events Calender and is an automation plugin for WordPress. It functions as a specialized link between your website and the Zapier platform, facilitating data transfer between your calendar and thousands of other applications. It belongs to the automation category on WPExclusive, alongside other tools for professional event organizers.
This addon solves the problem of isolated event data by pushing updates to CRM, email marketing, and project management tools in real-time. It is designed for businesses that need to scale their event operations by automating repetitive administrative tasks.
MEC Zapier Integration Features
The core feature set is built around creating automated workflows, known as Zaps, that trigger based on specific event activities on your site.
Comprehensive App Connectivity
The integration provides functionality that connects your MEC setup to more than 2,000 apps including Mailchimp, ActiveCampaign, Meetup, and Eventbrite. By bridging these platforms, you can automate your communication strategy and guest list management. This connectivity is essential for automation within a modern digital marketing ecosystem.
Advanced Event Triggers
Zapier Integration supports four primary tasks that act as triggers for your workflows. You can start a Zap when a new event is added, when existing events are modified, when an event is canceled, or when a new booking is performed. These triggers ensure that your external apps always hold the most current information regarding your schedule and attendee numbers.
High-Frequency Synchronization
The plugin utilizes Zap triggers to ensure a fast response time between your website and the target application. Depending on your Zapier plan, the system checks for new actions every 1 to 15 minutes. Once the initial setup is complete, the plugin handles these tasks autonomously so you can focus on event execution rather than data management.
Pricing
Retail pricing for the addon starts at $39 for a single site license. WPExclusive members access it as part of their membership plan without additional per-site costs.
| Plan | Price | Sites | Includes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Site | $39 | 1 Site | Premium Features |
| 5 Sites | $99 | 5 Sites | Premium Features |
| 10 Sites | $179 | 10 Sites | Premium Features |

For developers managing multiple sites, a WPExclusive membership covers Zapier Integration plus hundreds of other plugins and themes — usually less than one premium license.
