Want to save 10% off your Mailchimp monthly account? Everyone is entitled to the savings and you just need to know how to activate the discount. Follow the instructions below to pay less (and get more secure Mailchimp account access in the process).
Instructions to get 10% off Mailchimp
Get the free app
Getting 10% off is provided by Mailchimp for those that use two-factor authentication (2fa) to login to Mailchimp. Two-factor verification means providing your Mailchimp username and password as well as a unique code which is generated by Google Authenticator. Google Authenticator is a free app available for Android and iOS.
As a side note it’s worth mentioning that Mailchimp 2-step authentication also works well with the free Authy app for Android and iOS (iPhone and iPad). I prefer Authy due to the ease of using Authy across multiple devices including Chrome browser.
Whether you choose to use Google Authentication or Authy is up to you but, before continuing, please install one of the apps.
Setup Mailchimp for two-factor authentication
The next set of steps involves invoking the use of two-factor authentication on your Mailchimp account
- Login to your Mailchimp account.
- Click your name/your company name to the top right of the screen.
- Click Account.
- Click Account Settings -> Account Security.
- Click Google Authenticator Configuration.
- Follow the on-screen instructions.
Once you have finished the setup the 10% discount will automatically be added to your account.
Does the 10% discount also apply for accounts that use the SMS text messaging feature for Two-Step Authentication, and not the Google Authentication or Authy apps?
I’d expect so but please contact Mailchimp directly to confirm.
