    Hi, saw your Christmas wreath newsletter. Is the early bird 15% still on if I order 3 medium wreaths for my office?
    Looked up MailchimpChristmas wreaths · Sent 28 Oct · Early bird 15% until 15 Nov
    VoltyHi Joanne, yes. The early bird 15% applies to orders placed by 15 November, so three medium wreaths at $65 each come to $165.75. Would you like them delivered to your office, and on which date?

    What Volty does with Mailchimp

    Mailchimp sends the newsletters and campaigns for many small shops. Volty connects to Mailchimp with one sign-in. It can read your audiences and campaigns, so when a reader replies to a newsletter in an inbox Volty answers, or messages you about it on WhatsApp, Volty knows what the campaign offered. When you allow it, Volty can add a customer to your audience or update their tags.

    • Knows the campaign

      Volty reads what the newsletter offered before it answers.

    • Sign-ups from conversations

      A customer who asks to join can be added to your audience.

    • Tags kept current

      A customer's interests can be added as tags, with approval.

    • Writes start Off

      Adding or tagging subscribers waits for an admin's switch.

    How Volty connects to Mailchimp

    An admin signs in to Mailchimp from the Sources page and picks the tools Volty may use.

      Turn on the reads

    Common questions

    Can Volty change records in Mailchimp?

    Only when an admin allows it. Every tool has its own switch: tools that only read can be turned on, and tools that change a record start Off. A tool that is on can be set to check with staff, so each change waits for a colleague to approve it.

    Every Volty plan includes seats, active contacts and AI credits and starts with a free 7-day trial, and the plan prices are on voltade.com/pricing. Meta bills message charges separately for WhatsApp, Instagram and Messenger.
