Call #99860 When enabled, Mailchimp Ecommerce Syncing allows these data types from your Commerce Vision site to be sent to Mailchimp for Electronic Direct Mail (EDM) purposes:

  • Product
  • Sales Order
  • Promotion Rules


EDMs are not just about sending promotional or marketing emails enmasse to potential buyers. Data are segmented and used for targeted campaigns and email sendouts. For instance, past purchases from sales orders can be used to identify behavioral traits and build customer sub-groups, e.g., those interested in specific product types. high spend customers, location, etc. Promotion rules, e.g.,  send only to opted-in users, can be applied.


You can then create email campaigns in MailChimp that are more customer-centric to encourage brand loyalty and help conversion rates. They also mean less wastage of your email send limits.


Extension of a campaign to further digital communications and marketing channels such as social media can also be developed from syncing data. See: MailChimp.

    NOTE - For guest users, only the First Name is sent. 

  • Sales Orders: Order Date, Order Number and Order Total are sent.Orders are batched sent. The task checks that orders are not double-sent. Updates are sent for edited orders.
