Frequently Asked Questions about Mailchimp + Shopify integrations

New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with Mailchimp and Shopify

How do I connect my Mailchimp account with Shopify?

To connect Mailchimp with Shopify, navigate to the integrations section of your Mailchimp account and select Shopify. You will be guided through authorization steps where we request permissions to access your store data for synchronization.

Can I automate sending welcome emails when someone subscribes on my Shopify store?

Yes, once integrated, you can create an automation in Mailchimp that triggers a welcome email when a new subscriber is added through Shopify. This is facilitated by setting up specific triggers during the integration setup.

Is it possible to track purchases made by customers who receive my Mailchimp campaigns?

Absolutely! After integration, we can enable e-commerce tracking that allows you to see purchase details directly in your Mailchimp reports whenever recipients buy from your Shopify store.

How does syncing customer data from Shopify to Mailchimp work?

Customer data sync happens automatically at regular intervals once the integration is set up. We ensure that any changes in customer information like emails and purchase history are consistently updated in both platforms.

Can I segment my audience based on their purchase history in Shopify?

Yes, with the integration, you can segment audiences based on their purchase behaviors recorded in Shopify. Our system allows detailed segmentation for targeted campaigns built around this data.

What happens if I have existing email campaigns running when I integrate with Shopify?

Existing campaigns will continue to run smoothly. On integrating with Shopify, additional data-rich strategies may become available for future campaigns using triggers created during the setup.

Are there any specific products or ecommerce events in Shopify that would automatically trigger an email from Mailchimp?

Yes, actions such as cart abandonment or new order creation can trigger automated emails from Mailchimp if you've set up these rule-based sequences during configuration.
