Our MailChimp integration allows you to easily import your email lists, validate and export the validation results back to MailChimp.
What you need to get started:
You can also signup directly with MailChimp and authorize us to access your MailChimp account. Just input your login credentials and you’re good to go.
To get started, login to your DataValidation account and click on Import Lists.
Then, select Link an ESP account and click on Link with Mailchimp.
You will be redirected to the MailChimp login page and asked to input your login credentials. The window will close and DataValidation will connect to your MailChimp account.
A few seconds later, you will see that your MailChimp account has appeared in the import sources list. After you click on it, you will see all your Mailchimp lists. Select the ones you want to import and click on Import selected lists.
Once imported the list will be analyzed and validated just like an uploaded list.
Once the import finishes you will receive the Free List Quality Report with a score from 0 to 100 which represents the overall health of your email list and a Grade Breakdown.
To sync the validation results back to your MailChimp account, you need to purchase the validated email lists. Click on Purchase for x tokens (x represents the number of email addresses in your list). You can add all the lists you want to validate to the shopping cart before checkout.
Complete the checkout and that’s it! Now your validated lists will be synced back you your MailChimp account.
DataValidation will create a Safe to send segment which will contain only the email addresses graded A or A+.
To find the specific segment go to Manage contacts -> View contacts.
From there, go to View Saved Segments and select Safe to send.
Here you will see all email addresses graded with A and A+ - our recommendation is to send only to this segment.
