- Click the "Create Campaign" button.
- Choose "Ecommerce" as the campaign type.
- Select the ecommerce platform you're using (e.g., Shopify, WooCommerce, etc.).
- Click "Create" to create a new campaign.
Step 2: Set up the order email
- In the campaign settings, click on the "Automation" tab.
- Click on "Order" under the "Trigger" section.
- Select the order status you want to trigger the email for (e.g., "New Order", "Shipped", etc.).
- Choose the email template you want to use for the order email.
- Customize the email template as needed (e.g., add your store's logo, change the subject line, etc.).
Step 3: Add the order details
- In the email template, click on the "Insert" button and select "Order Details".
- Choose the order details you want to include in the email (e.g., order total, products, shipping information, etc.).
- Customize the order details as needed (e.g., add a summary of the order, include a link to the order details page, etc.).
Step 4: Save and test the campaign
- Click "Save" to save the campaign.
- Test the campaign by simulating an order in your ecommerce platform.
- Verify that the order email is sent to the customer and that the order details are included correctly.
Tips and Variations:

- You can also use Mailchimp's automation features to send follow-up emails based on the order status (e.g., send a shipping confirmation email when the order is shipped).
- Make sure to test the campaign thoroughly to ensure that it's working as expected and that the order details are being included correctly.
