A customer checks out on your store, and a new subscriber appears in your Mailchimp audience. The order maps straight across the instant checkout completes — a direct, real-time connection that runs entirely on your own WordPress site.

Everything you need to know about the WooCommerce & Mailchimp integration
No. Install Integrazo Automator, authorise Mailchimp once, pick the order event as the trigger, map the order fields to Mailchimp merge fields and switch the connection on. There is no webhook URL to paste and no JSON to write.
The one you pick when you build the connection. Every subscriber it adds goes to that audience, with the merge fields and tags you set.
Yes. Every one of your order fields is offered against every merge field on your Mailchimp audience — pick the ones you want mapped.
Not with Add Subscriber — Mailchimp itself rejects a repeat email rather than updating it. Use Add or Update Subscriber instead, and a matching email is updated rather than rejected.
Yes. Add a filter condition on the order — status, total, payment method or any other order field — and only orders matching it are sent to Mailchimp. Everything else is skipped and still shows up in your Logs.
The run is logged as failed with the error Mailchimp returned, and the order is still saved in WordPress — nothing is lost. Once the problem is fixed, the next matching order goes through as normal.
No. The connection runs on your own WordPress site and talks to Mailchimp directly. The OAuth token is encrypted in your database, and there is no middleman service holding a copy of your data.
The core plugin is free on WordPress.org and covers a single connection. Pro adds unlimited connections, multiple audiences per connection, and tag automation, and priority support.
