Description

The MailChimp addon connects Paid Memberships Pro membership levels to Mailchimp lists and audiences, automatically synchronizing new members as subscribers and moving contacts between lists as status changes. The integration reads the registration email, applies tags by membership level, and maintains a segmented database for welcome, renewal, and reengagement campaigns targeting those who subscribe to restricted content on the site.

  • Additional opt-in at checkout
