Extension Information





Current Version: v2024-3-12 (release notes)

OpenCart Versions: 1.5.1.x - 4.0.2.x

Automatically pass newsletter subscription information from your OpenCart site to your MailChimp newsletter list (and vice versa) behind the scenes, making less work for you! Customers will be synced during standard registration, checkout registration, and when admins perform actions in the admin panel. This extension also includes a sidebar module, to allow non-customers to sign up to your list.
  • Upload and go — no core file modifications are necessary. The extension utilizes vQmod for OpenCart 1.5.x, ocMod for OpenCart 2.x/3.0, and Event hooks for OpenCart 4.0.

  • Take advantage of the built-in extension updater. All that's required is to enter your current license key and click "Update".

  • Manually synchronize your lists with a single click when you first install the extension — after this, all information will be synchronized in the background.

  • Automatically add customers to your MailChimp list when they choose to receive your newsletter in OpenCart, both during account registration and any time after.

  • Easily synchronize e-mail, name, address, and phone information with MailChimp when customers edit their info in the front-end, and when administrators edit it in the back-end.

  • Choose whether to auto-create customers in OpenCart when they sign up for your newsletter through the sidebar module or through a MailChimp form.

  • Pass information from MailChimp back to OpenCart using the webhook functionality built into the extension.

  • For syncing with multiple MailChimp lists, mapping customer fields to merge tags, interest group support, and additional module features, see MailChimp Integration Pro. To inquire about upgrading and upgrade pricing, contact Clear Thinking.
