Gender-API Integration for Mailchimp
Personalize Your Email Marketing
Mailchimp is a leading marketing automation platform. Integrating Gender-API transforms your email marketing by enabling personalized communication at scale through automatic gender detection.
This integration helps improve open rates, click-through rates, and overall campaign performance by delivering content that speaks directly to each subscriber with appropriate language and messaging.
Why Integrate Gender-API with Mailchimp?
- Automatic Enrichment: Instantly add gender data to new and existing subscribers.
- Advanced Segmentation: Create gender-based audience segments for targeted campaigns.
- Improved Engagement: Personalized greetings and content increase open rates.
- Better Conversion: Gender-specific product recommendations drive higher sales.
How It Works
The integration works seamlessly through Zapier. When a new subscriber joins your Mailchimp list, it triggers an automatic enrichment workflow.
1. New Subscriber
When a new subscriber joins your Mailchimp list, Zapier triggers the workflow and sends the first name to Gender-API for analysis.
2. Enrich Profile
Gender-API returns the gender and confidence score. This data is automatically added to the subscriber's profile as a custom merge field or tag.
Use Cases
- Fashion Retail: Gender-appropriate product recommendations.
- E-learning: Personalize course recommendations.

Start IntegrationFrequently Asked Questions
How do I use gender data in my campaigns?
Use gender data as a merge tag in your email templates (e.g., *|GENDER|*), create segments based on gender, or use conditional content blocks to show different content to different genders.
Can I enrich existing subscribers?
Yes! Export your list, process it through Gender-API (CSV or API), and re-import. Or set up a Zap that triggers on "Updated Subscriber" to gradually enrich your existing list.
What about gender-neutral names?
Gender-API returns a confidence score. You can configure your workflow to only apply gender tags when the confidence exceeds a certain threshold, ensuring high data quality.
Does it work with groups and segments?
Absolutely! You can use the gender data to create segments, apply to groups, or use in any other Mailchimp feature for sophisticated targeting strategies.
Is it compliant with email regulations?
Yes, gender inference from first names is compliant with GDPR, CAN-SPAM, and other regulations when used for personalization. Data is processed securely and not stored permanently.
