How to make it easier?

I think you’re saying that you want;

  • User fills out a form on your Webflow site with their email
  • Your system then submits that email to a second site for account creation

If all you need to do is a form submission, you should be able to determine the form submission endpoint on your target site, and post the form data there on its behalf. However there are a lot of “If’s”. If the site has special protection against robots, like honeypots or recaptcha, you’ll find this difficult.

The better way to do it is to submit that data to an API endpoint, but that depends on the service you’re submitting to.

In terms of the “how”, I’d probably do this server-side. You’d capture the form submitted and then in an automation, you’d save that data somewhere but also submit it to the third party. That way if anything breaks down, you can complete those missing registrations manually.
