How to Capture Leads BEFORE They Hit Submit
🚀 What the Free Plugin Includes
Real-time Lead Capture
The tracker fires the moment a visitor types their email. Leads are saved silently in the background — zero impact on page speed, fully async.
Dashboard
See your recovery rate, total abandoned leads, recovered leads, and a live feed of recent activity — all from one clean screen.
Audience Lists
Create unlimited colour-tagged lists (e.g. “US Leads”, “High Value”, “Newsletter Opt-in”) to segment leads for targeted campaigns.
Broadcast Campaigns
Send targeted recovery emails to any audience list via your site’s built-in WordPress SMTP. Template tags include {name}, {email}, {recovery_link}, {site_name}, and more.
Lead Management
Full leads table with email search, status filter (Active / Abandoned / Recovered / Submitted), list filter, inline assign, and bulk assign.
REST API
Full CRUD REST API under /wp-json/rescue/v1/ for programmatic access to leads, lists, campaigns, and settings.

Frequently asked questions
Does it slow down my website?
No. The tracker script is lightweight (< 7 KB), loads asynchronously, and sends data in the background. PageSpeed and Core Web Vitals are not affected.
Which form plugins does it support?
Contact Form 7, WPForms, Gravity Forms, Ninja Forms, Elementor Forms, Formidable Forms, and any standard HTML with an email field.
Can I export leads?
The free plugin provides a full REST API for programmatic access. CSV and JSON export with custom field selection and filters (status, list, date range, country) is a Pro feature — up to 50,000 records per export.
Does the Pro addon require a separate purchase?
Yes. RescueFill Pro is a paid addon sold at themefreex.com. It is a separate GPL-licensed WordPress plugin installed alongside the free plugin. No lock-in — all your data stays in your database.
How does the recovery link work?
Each lead gets a unique token. The {recovery_link} tag in your emails generates a link that takes the visitor back to the exact page where they were filling the form, with all their data pre-filled.
Does it work with multisite?
Yes. Each site in your network has independent lead data, settings, and lists.
Is it GDPR compliant?
The free plugin captures only the email and form fields the visitor types. All data can be permanently deleted from the admin. The Pro addon adds GDPR Mode (consent gate before any tracking begins), IP/location toggle, and configurable data retention auto-purge.
What is the difference between Sequences and the Funnel Builder?
Sequences (Pro) are simple linear drip email chains — great for a 3-step “You left something behind” follow-up series. The Funnel Builder (Pro) is a full visual canvas with branching, conditions, delays, list assignment, and webhook nodes — for complex multi-path automations.
