1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for Mailchimp and MemberPress

To start integrating Mailchimp and MemberPress, you need to access Pabbly Connect. First, visit Pabbly’s website and sign in to your account. If you don’t have an account, you can sign up for free and get free tasks every month.

Once signed in, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. Name your workflow as ‘Mailchimp to MemberPress’ and proceed. This will set up the trigger and action events for your automation process.

2. Configuring the Mailchimp Trigger in Pabbly Connect

In this step, you will set up Mailchimp as the trigger application in Pabbly Connect. Select Mailchimp and choose the trigger event as ‘New Subscriber’. This action will initiate the automation when a new subscriber is added.

• Select ‘New Subscriber’ in Mailchimp as the trigger event.
• Copy the generated webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect.
• Log into your Mailchimp account and navigate to the Audience page.

After copying the webhook URL, you need to set it up in Mailchimp. Navigate to the settings of your audience and click on ‘Webhooks’. Create a new webhook and paste the copied URL into the Callback URL field. Ensure that you select the ‘Subscribe’ checkbox to receive updates on new subscribers.

3. Testing the Mailchimp Integration with Pabbly Connect

After configuring the webhook, it’s time to test the integration. Go back to Mailchimp and create a new subscriber using the form you set up. Fill in the details, such as first name, last name, and email address, and click the subscribe button.

Once you’ve added a new subscriber, return to Pabbly Connect to check if the webhook response has been captured. You should see the subscriber’s details displayed, confirming that the integration is working correctly.

4. Setting Up MemberPress Action in Pabbly Connect

Now that you have tested your Mailchimp integration, the next step is to set up MemberPress as the action application in Pabbly Connect. Choose MemberPress and select the action event as ‘Create Member’. This action will add the new Mailchimp subscriber as a member in MemberPress.

• Enter your WordPress site URL without including ‘/wp-admin’.
• Obtain the API key from MemberPress by navigating to Developer > REST API.
• Map the fields from Mailchimp to MemberPress, including email, username, first name, and last name.

After mapping the required fields, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. You should receive a response indicating that the member was successfully created in MemberPress.

5. Verifying the MemberPress Integration

Finally, to confirm that everything is set up correctly, log into your MemberPress account. Navigate to the Members section and check if the new member has been created successfully. You should see the subscriber’s details, including their ID, username, and registration date.

If the member appears in your MemberPress account, congratulations! You have successfully integrated Mailchimp and MemberPress using Pabbly Connect. This automation will now run seamlessly, adding new subscribers to your membership platform automatically.
