If you are unfamiliar with the MailChimp platform, changing your address may appear to be a daunting task. However, there is no need to worry as it is a simple and straightforward process. This blog post will guide you through the steps of updating your address on MailChimp.
Why Do You Need to Update Your Address?
Before we get started, it’s important to understand why you need to have an accurate physical address on MailChimp. It’s not just about keeping your account information up-to-date. According to the CAN-SPAM Act, it’s mandatory for every email campaign to contain the sender’s physical address. MailChimp takes this law very seriously, and therefore, requires you to provide a valid physical address when sending out email campaigns.
How to Change Your Address on MailChimp
Here is a step-by-step guide to change your address on MailChimp:
-
Log in to your MailChimp account and go to your profile by clicking on your name in the upper right corner and selecting ‘Profile’.
-
From your profile page, click on the ‘Settings’ drop-down list and select ‘Contact Information’.
-
On the ‘Contact Information’ page, you’ll see the current address. To change it, click the ‘Edit’ button.
-
Enter your new address in the provided fields and save the changes by clicking the ‘Save’ button.
That’s it! You’ve successfully changed your address on MailChimp.
A Note on Verification
Please note that after changing your address, MailChimp may need to verify it. The verification process may require you to confirm the change via an email sent to your registered email address. So make sure you have access to your email to complete the verification process.
Wrapping Up
Keeping your MailChimp account information up-to-date, especially your contact information, is very important. It will not only keep you compliant with the CAN-SPAM Act but also ensure that your email campaigns reach their intended audience without any issues. Follow the steps outlined above to change your address on MailChimp easily and quickly.
Happy emailing!
