Move off Mailchimp without stopping sending.
Notix reads your Mailchimp account with a read-only key you paste, brings your contacts, unsubscribes and bounces over, and deletes the key when the import finishes. Your Mailchimp account keeps sending the whole time.
How the move goes
- Connect or upload. Paste a read-only key, or upload your contacts and unsubscribes as CSV. Nothing is written until you have seen what we found.
- Unsubscribes first. Every unsubscribe, bounce and complaint is written before the first contact, so nobody who opted out at your old provider can be emailed from Notix.
- Your lists and fields. Contacts land in lists you choose, with your custom fields mapped. Anyone suppressed arrives unsubscribed.
- Add Notix to your domain. Publish our records alongside your old provider's. Both keep sending; DNS has room for both.
- Move volume gradually. A four-week plan, 15% to 100%, so mailbox providers see a sender that grows steadily. Switch the old provider off at the end, not the start.
What you need from Mailchimp
Account → Extras → API keys.
The key is held encrypted for one hour while the import runs and dropped when it finishes. Notix never writes it to its database, never logs it, and never sends email with it. Mailchimp cannot tell us what a key is allowed to do, so we say so plainly rather than implying a check that never happened. Delete the key at Mailchimp when we are done.
Your SPF record keeps both
A domain may only have one SPF record, so you add Notix to the line you already have rather than replacing it. Keep include:servers.mcsv.net while Mailchimp is still sending, add include:_spf.usenotix.dev beside it, and remove Mailchimp's once you have switched off.
What it costs
We haven't recorded Mailchimp's list prices for the plan this page is about, so there is no comparison here rather than a figure for a different product of theirs. Notix pricing is on one page, and a migration call can work your own numbers through with you.
What does not come over
Send history, analytics and A/B test definitions stay at Mailchimp — your reporting starts fresh at Notix. Templates and webhook events are matched up where we can, and anything we cannot convert is named rather than quietly dropped. A migration is one direction, once: Notix does not keep the two accounts in step.

The first campaign to imported contacts gets a quick review from us, so a mistake in the import cannot damage your sending.
