Start a Customer Journey from the quiz_completed API event the moment a shopper finishes.

In your control

Built to be trusted

One checkbox, real consent

Opted-in shoppers are written as Subscribed as soon as they pass the welcome screen, even if your audience uses double opt-in.

Choose what syncs

Answer tags, recommended-product tags, the quiz_completed event and subscription each have their own switch.

Sync per quiz

Keep test or internal quizzes out of Mailchimp. Every quiz is on by default, including new ones.

About 30 seconds

Data reaches Mailchimp about 30 seconds after the shopper finishes the quiz.

FAQ

Mailchimp questions

Yes. Mailchimp’s free plan blocks creating audiences through apps, so create the audience in Mailchimp first, then pick it from the dropdown.

Mailchimp tags are limited to 100 characters, so very long questions or answers are shortened.

If your audience has marketing-permission (GDPR) fields enabled, Mailchimp may require you to set those permissions on contacts yourself.

Syncing stops and the saved connection is removed. Contacts already in Mailchimp are kept.

More in the Mailchimp setup guide — or ask Ana inside your dashboard.
