Connect your Constant Contact account with ShipStation

Sync your ShipStation customers into segmented lists in Constant Contact

Connect your ShipStation account to your Constant Contact account and easily sync your ShipStation customers into segmented contact lists. In order to import contacts from ShipStation into Constant Contact, your ShipStation customers need to grant permission allowing you to email them. Using our integration, you can set up an "opt-in" email to get permission from your past and future ShipStation customers automatically and then those contacts will be imported. If you choose not to send an opt-in email, new ShipStation contacts will be imported directly and you will need to get permission to market to them on your own. 

• Send an opt-in email and import your ShipStation contacts
• Import your ShipStation contacts without sending an opt-in email
• Boost your marketing with the ShipStation integration
