subscribing to mailchimp from my site's signup form

I'm working on a website, it has membership. visitor fills form and be member. now somehow I need to forward the email at this signup form to my mailchimp mail list, so from 1 form I will get membership (to my开发者_运维知识库 site's db) and added email to mailchimp (for newsletter)

is it possible?

appreciate advises!! thanks!

Yes, it's possible through Mailchimp's API. You'll need to know programming to do this but I assume since you're on StackOverflow you can handle it. :)

Basically what I do is handle the form registration logic on my application, then send the user's email address and other information through the Mailchimp API's listSubscribe() method to add that user to my mailing list.

Hope that helps!
