Sell Downloads on a WIX Free website with DPD

We often get asked how to integrate DPD with a WIX free website. WIX is a popular What You See Is What You Get (WYSIWYG) website editor because it has a free plan, you don't have to know how to use HTML or CSS to make a website, and they have commercials on cable TV.

DPD Now Supports Groups in Mailchimp Lists

We're happy to announce that this morning we released another often requested feature- group support for Mailchimp integrations. As always, vendors can select which mailing list they want to send buyers from a store to. Now, you can also optionally specify group options for subscribers based on store or product. Store Group If you want to use the same mailing list across multiple stores, DPD now lets you put all purchases from a specific store into a Mailchimp group. By using a store group you'll be able to segment sending to your list shared across multiple stores by the store they purchased from.

Using Mailchimp Groups with DPD: 1. Set up your groups in Mailchimp. 2. Log...

DPD is Now Integrated with MailChimp!

We've been working with MailChimp to get our services hooked up and I'm pleased to announce that DPD integration with MailChimp is now live! Now you can pass customer data from any website profile directly to MailChimp automatically. DPD supports Name, Email, and Address data to be passed and automatically included in your lists (if your list has address fields). We use MailChimp here at DPD for our infrequent customer newsletters and we think they're the best around. Their service is outstanding, their support people are great, and from our integration experience with them I can tell you first hand that it's run by a great group of people. MailChimp offers THE best list management tool on the planet. They support autoresponders and signup forms and have an active user and developer community to help you get going. We really can't say enough good things about MailChimp here at DPD-...
