How to Send Facebook Leads to AWeber with LeadSync

Luke Moulton

AWeber is built for automating email sequences and growing your list. But it can’t directly import leads from Facebook Lead Ads. That gap means your leads either sit in Facebook or get lost in manual data entry.

LeadSync closes that gap. It takes Facebook leads and delivers them to your AWeber list within seconds. Your autoresponder starts immediately. Custom fields sync automatically.

Quick Start — 5 Steps

  1. Connect LeadSync to AWeber (OAuth—no API key)
  2. Select your AWeber list
  3. Connect your Facebook Lead Ad form
  4. Map your custom fields if needed
  5. Launch. Leads start arriving instantly

Full setup in about 10 minutes. Your first lead appears in AWeber seconds after the Facebook form is submitted.

Why Sync Facebook Leads to AWeber?

AWeber is one of the longest-running email marketing platforms for small business and solopreneurs. It’s built for automating email sequences, but it needs a way to get leads from Facebook into your list.

  • Custom fields created automatically in AWeber. If your Facebook form has custom fields that don’t exist in AWeber yet, LeadSync creates them for you. No manual setup needed.
  • Leads arrive within seconds. Your autoresponder fires immediately. Day-zero sequences start without delay.
  • Full name parsing. If your Facebook form collects a full name, LeadSync automatically splits it into first and last name in AWeber.
  • All standard fields sync. Email, name, phone, address, custom fields—everything maps directly.
  • Connect leads from multiple platforms. Facebook, Google Ads, LinkedIn Lead Gen Forms, and TikTok all route to your AWeber list simultaneously.

No Zapier. No monthly integration costs. No risk of the integration breaking when Zapier updates their API.

Step-by-Step: Connect Facebook Leads to AWeber

Step 1: Start in LeadSync

Log into your LeadSync dashboard. Click Connections in the top menu. Click Add a Connection.

Step 2: Select AWeber and Authorize

Select AWeber from the dropdown list. You’ll be redirected to AWeber’s login page.

Log in with your AWeber email and password. AWeber will then show you a permission screen asking if you want to allow LeadSync access to your account.

Click Authorize or Allow (exact wording varies by AWeber version). Your access key is granted automatically, and you’ll be redirected back to LeadSync.

Step 3: Name Your Connection

You’re back in LeadSync. Give your connection a name, like “AWeber – Facebook Ads.” This helps you identify it if you add multiple connections later.

Click Update Connection. LeadSync will pull your AWeber lists and show them in a dropdown.

Step 4: Select Your AWeber List

Select the AWeber list where you want Facebook leads to arrive. We recommend creating a dedicated list for Facebook Lead Ads so you can run a separate automation workflow.

Click Update Connection. Your AWeber connection is now live.

Step 5: Connect Your Facebook Lead Form

LeadSync Lead Forms page with Add Lead Form button

Go to the Lead Forms section in LeadSync. Click Add Facebook Lead Form.

Select your Facebook Page (where your Lead Ad is running). Then select the specific Lead Form (the form that appears in the ad). Finally, select your AWeber connection.

Click Update notification. LeadSync is now monitoring this Facebook form.

Step 6: Map Custom Fields (If Needed)

If your Facebook form asks for fields beyond name and email—like job title, company, or custom fields—you’ll want to map those to AWeber so the data ends up in the right place.

In the Lead Form setup page, scroll to Field Mapping. Match each Facebook field to the corresponding AWeber field.

If a field from your Facebook form doesn’t exist in AWeber, LeadSync will create it for you automatically. The mapped field will be created when the first lead with that field arrives.

Click Update notification. Your mapping is saved.

Step 7: Test the Connection

Before scaling up, submit a test lead through your Facebook form. Check your AWeber list a few seconds later to confirm the lead arrived with all fields populated.

If everything looks correct, you’re ready to launch your full ad campaigns.

Important Note: Facebook Page Admin Access Required

To connect your Facebook Lead Ad form in LeadSync, you need Admin access to the Facebook Page. Having Advertiser access alone is not sufficient.

If you run ads but don’t have Page Admin access, ask the Page owner to add you as an Admin first. Then you can proceed with the connection.

Customizing Your AWeber Integration

How Custom Fields Are Created

When you map a Facebook custom field to AWeber during setup, LeadSync doesn’t create the field immediately. Instead, it creates it when the first lead with that field arrives. This means your AWeber field structure grows with your lead flow.

You can also create fields manually in AWeber first, then map them in LeadSync. Either way works fine.

Full Name Parsing

If your Facebook form collects a single “Full Name” field but AWeber expects separate first and last name fields, LeadSync automatically splits the full name.

Just map “Full Name” from Facebook to “First Name” in AWeber, and LeadSync will handle the parsing. Last name will be captured as well.

Using a Dedicated AWeber List

We strongly recommend creating a separate AWeber list for Facebook Lead Ads. This lets you run a dedicated automation workflow for these leads without affecting your other lists.

In AWeber, click Create List and name it “Facebook Leads 2025” or similar. Then select that list in your LeadSync connection.

Multiple Facebook Forms to One AWeber List

You can send leads from multiple Facebook forms to the same AWeber list. Go to Lead Forms in LeadSync and add multiple forms, all pointing to the same AWeber connection and list.

This is perfect if you’re running different ad campaigns with different forms but want all leads in one central AWeber list.

Go Beyond AWeber: Multi-Channel Lead Routing

AWeber is great for email automation, but your leads might need to go to other channels too.

LeadSync lets you route the same Facebook leads to multiple destinations simultaneously:

Many users combine AWeber for nurture sequences with Slack for immediate team alerts. That way your email grows the relationship while your sales team jumps on hot leads right away.

Frequently Asked Questions

How fast do leads sync to AWeber?

Leads arrive within seconds of form submission. Usually 2-5 seconds. Your AWeber autoresponder starts immediately.

Will LeadSync create fields that don’t exist in AWeber?

Yes. If you map a Facebook custom field to AWeber and that field doesn’t exist in AWeber yet, LeadSync will create it automatically when the first lead with that field arrives.

Do I need AWeber Page Admin access?

You need Admin access to the Facebook Page where your Lead Ad is running. You need this to set up the connection in LeadSync. Advertiser access alone isn’t sufficient.

Can I send leads from multiple Facebook ad accounts to one AWeber list?

Yes. Each Facebook Page is separate in LeadSync, but they can all feed the same AWeber list. Add multiple Lead Forms pointing to the same AWeber connection and list.

What happens if I add a new field to my Facebook form?

Go back to your Lead Form settings in LeadSync and add the mapping for the new field. Leads submitted after that will include the new field and it will sync to AWeber.

Does LeadSync charge per lead?

No. LeadSync charges a flat monthly rate. Sync 100 leads or 100,000 leads—your price stays the same.

Can I test before going live?

Absolutely. Set up the integration, submit a test lead through your Facebook form, and verify it shows up in your AWeber list. Once you’re confident it’s working, scale to your full campaigns.

What if I want different Facebook forms to go to different AWeber lists?

Create multiple connections in LeadSync, each pointing to a different AWeber list. Then connect each Facebook form to the connection you want. This gives you complete control over lead routing.

Is my AWeber data secure?

Yes. Your OAuth token is encrypted and stored securely. LeadSync only uses it to add subscribers to your list. You can revoke access in your AWeber account at any time.
