What does this feature help me achieve?

We currently support two integrations with Mailchimp

Mailchimp Audience

• Prepare marketing campaigns in Mailchimp and email funnels, to keep your customers up to date with your latest offers, products, campaigns, and other business developments

How do I set it up?

• Prepare your Mailchimp account. You first just need to have an existing Mailchimp account or create a new one. You can do this at https://mailchimp.com/
  • Tip: You can get a free account with Mailchimp until you reach about 2000 contacts
  • Create or select an Audience List inside your Mailchimp portal to which your Sharefox shop users should be added to
  • Get your Mailchimp API key: Generate an API key from Mailchimp > Account > Extras > API keys. Use the "Create a key" button. Copy the key, as you will use it in the next steps below
  • Get your Audience List ID: Inside the Audience created above > Go to View Contacts > Settings > Audience name and defaults > Audience ID section > Copy the Audience ID, as you will use it in the next steps below
• Add the integration parameters in Sharefox Admin. Go to Admin > Settings > Integrations > Marketing
  • Scroll to section Mailchimp Audience and fill in the Mailchimp API key and Audience List ID
  • Enable integration: Toggle the integration to ON on the right from the right corner

How does it work?
