Hi Lapo,

Do you need to send the user with the data - like to PayPal, or just the data to the other URL?

If it's just the the data then the cURL action will probably do what you need.

Hi Lapo,

It depends on their internet connection - usually 10-20 seconds, sometimes longer.

Hi Lapo,

Yes, it's there. See the section called "A form that submits itself". That describes how to submit data from ChronoForms to MailChimp using Post. It's close to what you have described here.
