What it can do
Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 9, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.
mailchimp_get_accountGet the API Root — the authenticated Mailchimp account: account name, total subscribers, contact info, plan and industry stats. REST: GET /.
mailchimp_list_audiencesList the account's audiences — Mailchimp's `/lists` resource (an audience is a list of subscribers). Paginated, with optional sort. REST: GET /lists.
mailchimp_get_audienceGet a single audience (list) by id, including subscriber stats, default from-name/email and settings. REST: GET /lists/{list_id}.
mailchimp_list_membersList members of an audience (list). Paginated, with an optional status filter and sort. REST: GET /lists/{list_id}/members.
mailchimp_get_memberGet a single audience member (subscriber) by email or subscriber_hash, including status, merge fields, tags and stats. REST: GET /lists/{list_id}/members/{subscriber_hash} (email → MD5 hash).
mailchimp_search_membersSearch for members across the account (or one audience) by email, name or other fields. Returns exact + full-text matches. REST: GET /search-members.
mailchimp_list_campaignsList the account's campaigns (email sends). Paginated, with optional type/status/audience filters and sort. REST: GET /campaigns.
mailchimp_get_campaignGet a single campaign by id, including its settings, recipients and send status. REST: GET /campaigns/{campaign_id}.
mailchimp_list_reportsList campaign reports (aggregate performance for sent campaigns). Paginated, with an optional type filter. REST: GET /reports.
mailchimp_get_campaign_reportGet the report for one campaign — opens, clicks, bounces, unsubscribes and other engagement summary stats. REST: GET /reports/{campaign_id}.
mailchimp_list_automationsList the account's classic automations (automated email workflows). Paginated. REST: GET /automations.
mailchimp_list_templatesList the account's email templates (saved and pre-built layouts). Paginated, with optional type filter and sort. REST: GET /templates.
mailchimp_list_segmentsList an audience's segments and tags (saved segments include static tags). Paginated. REST: GET /lists/{list_id}/segments.
mailchimp_list_member_tagsList the tags applied to a single audience member (by email or subscriber_hash). Paginated. REST: GET /lists/{list_id}/members/{subscriber_hash}/tags (email → MD5 hash).
mailchimp_add_memberAdd a new member (subscriber) to an audience (list). Note: status "pending" triggers a double-opt-in confirmation email. REST: POST /lists/{list_id}/members.
mailchimp_update_memberUpdate an existing audience member (by email or subscriber_hash). Only the fields you supply change. REST: PATCH /lists/{list_id}/members/{subscriber_hash} (email → MD5 hash).
mailchimp_add_member_tagsAdd and/or remove tags on an audience member (by email or subscriber_hash). `tags` are added (status active); `removeTags` are removed (status inactive). Mailchimp returns HTTP 204 (no body). REST: POST /lists/{list_id}/members/{subscriber_hash}/tags (email → MD5 hash).
mailchimp_archive_memberArchive (soft-remove) an audience member — reversible; this is NOT the permanent-delete action. REST: DELETE /lists/{list_id}/members/{subscriber_hash} (email → MD5 hash). Returns HTTP 204 (no body).

Common questions
Is Mailchimp MCP by usefulapi safe?
It passed 3 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.
What keys or codes does it need?
The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.
Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?
It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.
Is it still maintained?
The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.36.5) reached the registry 2 days ago.
Which apps can use it?
Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.
What can I use instead?

Mailchimp MCP by usefulapi
Use your Mailchimp account from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client — read audiences, members, campaigns and reports, and add, update, tag or archive subscribers. Hosted, no local install: connect with your own credentials.
Live endpoint: https://mailchimp.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io
Connect
- Claude (claude.ai, Desktop): open Customize → Connectors, click + Add → Add custom connector, and paste
https://mailchimp.usefulapi.io/mcp. - Claude Code:
claude mcp add --transport http mailchimp https://mailchimp.usefulapi.io/mcp, then run/mcpto log in. - VS Code: Add to VS Code.
- Cursor and other clients: add the URL as a remote MCP server:
{
"mcpServers": { "mailchimp": { "url": "https://mailchimp.usefulapi.io/mcp" } } }
Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config: the server signs you in with OAuth, and the login page asks for your Mailchimp credentials.
Step-by-step setup, where to find your credentials, and FAQ: https://usefulapi.io/mailchimp/
On first connect you'll provide your Mailchimp API key (Account & billing → Extras → API keys — include the -us21 datacenter suffix). It is validated, stored per-user, and scoped to you — no keys in config files.
