Last week, Mailchimp announced that it would be removing the Mailchimp for Shopify integration from Shopify’s marketplace (effective immediately), and on Sunday, May 12th, Shopify will no longer support the integration.
If you’re a Mailchimp for Shopify user, you’ll want to make some swift moves to ensure a seamless migration for your customers and you before “Mexit” officially takes place. Believe in the might of Mailchimp and want to continue using the platform? Check out these workarounds:
Third-Party Integrations
There are several third-party providers to connect your Mailchimp account to Shopify: ShopSync (free), Zapier, and Automate.io. Be sure to install the third-party integration before you disconnect the Mailchimp for Shopify integration to make sure you don’t lose anything! After you install the new integration, disconnect Mailchimp for Shopify.
