Why Is Squarespace Not Connecting to Mailchimp?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 3:05 am

Mailchimp is a tool that helps businesses automate their email marketing. It’s a great way to keep in touch with your customers and prospects, and to stay top of mind. But what happens when you want to use Mailchimp with Squarespace?

Unfortunately, the two platforms don’t play well together. There is no native integration between Squarespace and Mailchimp, which means you can’t connect your Squarespace website to your Mailchimp account.

This can be frustrating, especially if you’re already using Mailchimp for your email marketing. But there are some workarounds that you can use to get the two platforms to work together.

PRO TIP: If you are using Squarespace to build your website, you may have noticed that there is not a built-in way to connect to Mailchimp. There are a few reasons why this may be the case, but the most likely reason is that Mailchimp does not have an integration with Squarespace. While you can export your Squarespace contact list and import it into Mailchimp, this is not a perfect solution and can lead to some problems down the road.

One workaround is to use a third-party service like Zapier or IFTTT. These services allow you to connect Squarespace to Mailchimp (and other platforms). The downside is that they can be a bit complicated to set up, and they may not work with all Squarespace templates.

Another workaround is to use a Mailchimp signup form on your Squarespace website. This is a bit more straightforward than using a third-party service, but it’s not as seamless as an integration would be.

If you’re not using Squarespace for your website, you can also use Mailchimp’s embedded signup forms. This option is the easiest to set up, but it requires that you have a separate website and domain name for your Mailchimp account.

At the end of the day, there is no perfect solution for connecting Squarespace and Mailchimp. Zapier, IFTTT, and Mailchimp’s embedded signup forms are all good options.
