Jotform and Mailchimp Integration

The integration sends form submission data directly to Mailchimp:

  • Subscriber email is added or updated in your Mailchimp audience
  • Form fields map to Mailchimp merge tags (FNAME, LNAME, PHONE, etc.)
  • Contact status is set to Subscribed, Pending (double opt-in), or Transactional
  • Optional: Assign to groups and add tags based on form responses

  1. Open your form in Form Builder
  2. Go to Settings → Integrations → Mailchimp
  3. Authenticate with your Mailchimp account
  4. Select the Audience (list) to add subscribers to
  5. Map the Email Address field (required) and other form fields to merge tags
  6. Set subscription status (Subscribed or Pending for double opt-in)

Mailchimp Groups and Tags

You can segment subscribers at the point of signup:

  • Groups: Assign subscribers to interest groups (e.g., "Newsletter", "Product Updates")
  • Tags: Add static tags (e.g., "webinar-signup-2026") or dynamic tags based on a form field value
  • Double opt-in: Set status to "Pending" to require email confirmation before subscribing
