Pabbly Connect is an incredible automation tool that enables users to integrate various applications seamlessly. In this tutorial, we will explore how to create Mailchimp members automatically whenever a payment is made through Razorpay. This integration streamlines the process of managing customer data and enhances email marketing efforts.

To begin, you need to access Pabbly Connect by navigating to Pabbly Connect in your web browser. If you are not a registered user, you can sign up for a free account, which offers 100 free tasks each month to test the platform. Once logged in, you will be directed to the dashboard where you can create a new workflow.

2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

To set up the automation, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button in Pabbly Connect. A prompt will appear asking you to name your workflow. Enter a name like ‘Create Mailchimp Member on Razorpay Payment’ and select a relevant folder for organization. Once done, click on the ‘Create’ button to proceed.

• Name your workflow appropriately.
• Select a folder for better organization.
• Click ‘Create’ to initiate the workflow.

After creating the workflow, you will see two windows labeled ‘Trigger’ and ‘Action’. The trigger is the event that starts the workflow, while the action is what happens as a result. In this case, the trigger will be Razorpay’s payment capture, and the action will be adding a member to Mailchimp.

3. Setting Up the Trigger in Pabbly Connect

Click on the trigger application and select Razorpay as the application to start with. Next, choose the trigger event as ‘Payment Captured’. This event will initiate the workflow every time a payment is successfully made through Razorpay.

Pabbly Connect will provide you with a webhook URL after selecting the trigger event. This URL needs to be added to your Razorpay account. Go to the Razorpay dashboard, navigate to ‘Accounts and Settings’, and select ‘Webhooks’. Here, you will add a new webhook by pasting the URL from Pabbly Connect.

• Select Razorpay as the trigger application.
• Choose ‘Payment Captured’ as the trigger event.
• Copy the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect.

Make sure to select the same event in Razorpay while setting up the webhook. Once the webhook is created and enabled, return to Pabbly Connect where it will show that it is waiting for a response.

4. Testing the Integration with Pabbly Connect

To test the integration, you need to make a test payment through Razorpay. Create a payment link in Razorpay and simulate a payment using dummy details. After successfully completing the payment, Pabbly Connect will capture the response, which includes customer details such as name, email, and payment status.

Once the payment response is captured, you can view all the details in Pabbly Connect. This confirms that the connection between Razorpay and Pabbly Connect is successful. Now, you can proceed to set up the action to add the customer as a member in Mailchimp.

Create a payment link in Razorpay. Simulate a payment using dummy customer details. Check Pabbly Connect for the captured response.

This step is crucial to ensure that your workflow is correctly set up and functioning as expected before moving on to the next action.

5. Adding a Member to Mailchimp Using Pabbly Connect

Now that you have successfully captured the payment details, it’s time to add the customer as a member in Mailchimp. In Pabbly Connect, select Mailchimp as the action application and choose the action event as ‘Add New Member with Custom Fields’. This will allow you to map the customer’s email and other details from the Razorpay response.

Connect Mailchimp to Pabbly Connect by entering your Mailchimp API key and data center. You can find this information in your Mailchimp account under ‘Extras’ and ‘API Keys’. Once connected, map the necessary fields such as email address, first name, and last name. Ensure that you set the subscriber status to ‘subscribed’ to add the member successfully.

Select Mailchimp as the action application. Choose ‘Add New Member with Custom Fields’ as the action event. Map the fields from Razorpay to Mailchimp.

After mapping all the necessary fields, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. If successful, you will see the new member added to your Mailchimp audience. This completes the integration process, and you can now automate the addition of new customers to your mailing list every time a payment is made through Razorpay.

Conclusion

In this tutorial, we demonstrated how to use Pabbly Connect to automate the process of adding Mailchimp members based on Razorpay payments. By following these steps, you can streamline your email marketing efforts and ensure that your customers are automatically added to your mailing list.
