To integrate with Klaviyo, you’re going to need a Klaviyo account with API access.
Social WiFi’s integration with Klaviyo makes the exporting of your gathered data instant and automated.
Every time a user logs in to your WiFi network, the data will be sent to Klaviyo. Whenever you remove a Social WiFi in the User Data tab, the user will also be deleted from Klaviyo.
Klaviyo is very strict about handling contact marketing consent. By default, each contact list in Klaviyo is configured with double opt-in enabled. That means that each time a contact is added from Social WiFi, Klaviyo would send an additional email to the user asking for permission to subscribe. This is not needed and usually not desired, since Social WiFi already gathered the contact's permission during the login process.

To disable the additional opt-in email, please go to your list settings and set "Single opt-in".
With Social WiFi you can collect phone numbers as well, they will be sent to Klaviyo as a contact attribute, the same way as email addresses. But if you want to send SMS through Klaviyo, your Klaviyo account must have SMS enabled and appropriate countries need to be enabled. Otherwise Social WiFi will send phone numbers, but they will not be "subscribed" and will not be used by Klaviyo.
