Beginning in Summer 2021 new clients can set up a Mailchimp account that meets their needs and connect it to Member Splash. MailChimp has several pricing plans to meet any clubs needs.

1. Go to https://mailchimp.com/ and sign up for a MailChimp account (if you do not already have one). You will need your MailChimp API Key from your account to complete the Member Splash set up.

2. Go to your Member Splash menu bar, Select Communations >> MailChimp

3. Once there the MailChimp Settings screen appears it will look like this:

#. Enter your API Key

#. Enter your list which will be all members.

4. Click the submit button. You will get a confirmation

5. Then go to Sync Settings tab.

NOTE: If a tag is deactivated, it won’t get removed from MailChimp’s site, the user data for that field just won’t be synced if there are any user changes or batch updates. The only way to completely delete a merge tag is in MailChimp.

NOTE: Deleting a merge tag directly from Mailchimp won’t delete it from the club’s site. And turning off a tag on the club’s site won’t delete it from Mailchimp.

6. Once you have your desired merge tags toggled on, click the Sync Now button and the member data in your Member Splash site will be synced with your Mailchimp account.

NOTE: As you create new Account Tags, you'll see them appear in your list of merge tags on the Sync Settings screen. New account tags are disabled by default, so you'll have to enable them by toggling the tags on. Hit the Sync Now button to update your Mailchimp contact profiles.
