You can integrate Mailchimp so that you can collect your customers information in order to market to them. Your customers will be created in Mailchimp in your relevant Audience. 

You can also choose to integrate Mailchimp so that emails from the website pop up are collected in a separate audience list in Mailchimp.

You have to integrate your Mailchimp account in order to use our Website Pop Up. After following the directions in this Knowledge article jump into How to Add a Website Pop Up and start collecting emails.

There are 2 possible ways to integrate Mailchimp with Maidily:

1. Sync the Maidily website pop up email address into your Mailchimp audience

2. Sync your customer data and information into your Mailchimp audience

You can use the same Audience ID from Mailchimp for both type of integrations but having 2 audiences set up in Mailchimp - 1 audience for each is highly recommended
