How to integrate widgets
with MailChimp

If you use MailChimp for email marketing and Getsitecontrol widgets to collect email addresses of your website visitors, you can easily connect the two apps to avoid having to manually export and import data. Simply choose the necessary mailing list and Getsitecontrol will add every new email subscriber to this list automatically.

1. Find the Integrations tab

You can connect your Getsitecontrol account to MailChimp.

You can also enable opt-in confirmation emails, then a letter to confirm the subscription will be sent to all new subscribers. If they don’t click the link in this email they won’t be added to your list.

4. Map your widget fields

Make sure the fields of your widget are matched to those in the MailChimp list. Click the Map widget fields button to check that the fields are properly matched. You can read more about field mapping here.

You can connect your widget to more than one third-party application. Click the +Add application link to add another integration for the current widget.
