## How to add new subscribers from Tidio to MailerLite

 



 

New subscribers are added to MailerLite from Tidio in a few scenarios:

 

💡



**Please note:** While MailerLite is connected, **Ask your visitor for newsletter permission** stays enabled in your pre-chat survey settings. You cannot turn this checkbox off while the integration needs it.

 

### Pre-Chat Survey

 

When you have the Pre-Chat Survey enabled, and a user provides their email address and communication consent, this email will be automatically added to your MailerLite list.

### Manual status update

 

You can change a user's subscriber status manually. When you change it to 'Subscribed,' we will pass the user's email to MailerLite.

### Flow

 

You can add subscribers to MailerLite using a flow and the 'Subscribe for Mailing' node. When you collect an email address using such a flow, we pass it automatically to your MailerLite list.

💡

 

**Please note:** Tidio warns that changing a contact to **Subscribed** does not trigger a confirmation email. MailerLite also offers a **Double opt-in for API and integrations** setting under **Account settings \> Subscribe settings**. Check that setting and test the connection with an address you control before relying on confirmation emails. Always collect consent from your users.
