WP WooCommerce Mailchimp

Description

WP WooCommerce Mailchimp provides simple and flexible Mailchimp integration for WooCommerce.

Automatically subscribe customers to a designated Mailchimp list and, optionally, Mailchimp interest groups and tags upon order creation or order completion.
This can be done quietly or based on the user’s consent with several opt-in settings that support international opt-in laws.

Upgrade to WP WooCommerce Mailchimp Pro for more advanced features including WooCommerce Subscriptions support and the ability to set product-specific lists, groups and tags.

Features

WooCommerce Event Selection

• Subscribe customers to Mailchimp after order creation
• Subscribe customers to Mailchimp after order processing
• Subscribe customers to Mailchimp after order completion

Works with Mailchimp Interest Groups and Tags

• Set one or more interest groups to add users to based on the selected Mailchimp list.
• Set one or more tags to add users to based on the selected Mailchimp list.

Opt-In Settings

• MailChimp double opt-in support (control whether a double opt-in email is sent to the customer)
• Optionally, display an opt-in checkbox on the checkout page (this is required in some countries)
• Control the label displayed next to the opt-in checkbox
• Control whether or not the opt-in checkbox is checked or unchecked by default
• Control the placement of the opt-in checkbox on the checkout page

Translation Support

Would you like to help translate the plugin into more languages? Join our Translations Community at https://translate.www.ads-software.com/projects/wp-plugins/woocommerce-mailchimp.

WooCommerce Mailchimp translation is managed through WordPress language packs here: https://translate.www.ads-software.com. This allows WooCommerce Mailchimp to be translated into other languages. The preferred tool for translating plugins is called GlotPress. You can read about how GlotPress works in the WordPress Translator’s Handbook.

Thanks in advance for your help on any translation efforts!

We also support bundled translations via:

• Included woocommerce-mailchimp.pot file
• WPML support via wpml-config.xml

Included Translations:

• English (US) (default)
• French.

Custom Translations

If you don’t want to use WordPress language packs or bundled translations, you can use your own custom translations.

• Place custom translations in /wp-content/languages/woocommerce-mailchimp/woocommerce-mailchimp_{lang}_{country}.mo. This ensures they won’t get overwritten by plugin updates.

Translation Loading

If no custom translations are present, languages will be loaded in the following order:

• From WordPress language packs in: /wp-content/languages/plugins/woocommerce-mailchimp/woocommerce-mailchimp_{lang}_{country}.mo
• From the plugin bundled in: /wp-content/plugins/woocommerce-mailchimp/languages/woocommerce-mailchimp_{lang}_{country}.mo

Multisite

• All features should work for each blog in multisite installations.

Requirements

WP WooCommerce Mailchimp requires PHP 5.6+ (PHP 7.0+ recommended). You’ll also need to be running WordPress 4.7.0+ and have WooCommerce 3.5.0+.

Documentation & Support

Online documentation and code samples are available via our Help Center.

Please visit the
WP WooCommerce MailChimp support forum on www.ads-software.com for basic support and help from other users. Since this is a free plugin, we respond to these as we have time.

Dedicated support will is available for WP WooCommerce MailChimp Pro customers.

Awesome support!

Great plugin! I had a little issue but they fixed it immediately. Awesome support guys, keep up the good work Thank you, Nico

AMAZING Support

terryainsley May 27, 2021

Had an issue with the plugin (which was my fault) due to some settings that I had changed at MC end. Adam was EXTREMELY helpful and spent around 2 hours with me on live chat ensuring the issue was fixed and then retrospectively updating tags on products that had been lost due to the error. Adam saved me a LOT of time and effort adding tags manually and his support was second to none. Aside from the support the plugin itself is great for managing subscribers and categorising with tags etc….

Nice, simple plugin

infotrade72 November 20, 2019

I’ve used the basic version for 2 years now and it has worked perfectly. The plugin is simple to use and set up, and it has done the job I needed it to. I’m now at the stage where I need the paid version and I hope it continues to perform.

Most Feature-Rich WooCommerce MailChimp Integration Available!

robertstaddon July 26, 2019

I have tried out a lot of WordPress WooCommerce MailChimp integration plugins and this one by far is my favorite. It goes well beyond a simple checkbox on checkout and provides a rich feature set for subscribing customers to MailChimp interest groups, adding tags, and allowing product-based list subscriptions. The settings screens are intuitive and well documented. And I am really happy about the Pro version that provides an extra level of customization and top-notch support. Keep up the good work!

Doesn’t work with non English names

not1_name March 5, 2019 1 reply

Worked fine for a while, but now all names are a mess. The encoding is not working for Japanese. It used too, and every other plugin handles names fine. Just this one doesn’t. Having to use Zapier and their expensive woocommerce plugin as a workaround.

Awesome plugin for MailChimp when using WooCommerce
