# MailChimp Integration

MailChimp Integration

This will show you how to integrate MailChimp to your OptimizePress 3.0 site. You can do this in two methods, either using an **API key** or **connecting directly your MailChimp account** inside the OptimizePress 3.0 dashboard.

### **MailChimp API Key**

1\. The first thing you need to do is to create an API key within your MailChimp account. To do that, please log in to your [MailChimp account](https://login.mailchimp.com/). Click your profile name to expand the Account Settings and choose Account.

2\. Go to **Extras** menu and select API Keys. Click the **Create A Key** button to generate an API Key. Don't forget to copy the API key and go to your site.
