In this article, you'll learn how to add an embedded signup form to your website, and which third-party websites allow Mailchimp forms.

Before you start

Here are some things to know before you begin this process.

• This article tells you how to generate an embed code and add it to your website. You'll need to customize your embedded signup form first. To learn more, check out Customize Your Embedded Signup Form.
• Use the form builder to modify your response emails before you generate the embedded form code.
• Embedded and pop-up forms support SSL encryption.
• To prevent fake signups, enable reCAPTCHA confirmation for your form in your audience’s settings.
• This is an advanced feature and is recommended for users familiar with custom coding. Contact your developer or hire a Mailchimp Expert if you need assistance.

How it works

Once you customize your embedded form, Mailchimp generates a code. Add the code to the backend of the web page where you want your form to appear. When you make changes to your embedded form, the code updates automatically. To update your embedded form, copy the new code and replace the old code on your website. If you're comfortable with HTML, you can manually edit the code to align with your organization's style and brand.
