This widget can be used for all sorts of things, like: newsletter, lead capture, email sequence, and much more!

Most probably both. This is a perfect example how the plugins should look like. Easy to use and without all the unnecessary clutter and gazillion of options. Great work! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/1bbe52fec761e8944571a819b07917fd27c342000c1f63c7193a8c90331b3602? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[The simpliest MailChimp plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/the-simpliest-mailchimp-plugin/)󠁿 [spaka](https://profiles.wordpress.org/spaka/) July 6, 2017 1 reply This plugin is exactly what I need.
