Commerce-first, not general-purpose
Fluxo is built to sell for a store: its flows, segments, and reports are about carts, orders, and customers, not a general email tool you have to bend to fit ecommerce.

Why brands switch to Fluxo
Native Shopify sync
One-click install and real-time sync mean your customers, orders, and products are always current, so segments and product blocks never drift from your store.
Reviews and SMS included
Collect reviews and send SMS from the same app, on one bill, instead of adding separate tools for each channel.
No per-send surprises
Your plan scales with your audience, not with a fee on every email, so growing your sending does not grow your bill unpredictably.
Common questions
Why switch from Mailchimp to Fluxo for a Shopify store?
Fluxo is built specifically for Shopify commerce, with ecommerce flows, live store data, reviews, and SMS in one app, whereas Mailchimp is a general-purpose email tool.
Can I move my Mailchimp contacts to Fluxo?
Yes. You can import your existing contacts, including subscribe and consent status, so you keep your audience and your permission record.
Does Fluxo include ecommerce automations?
Yes. Abandoned cart, back-in-stock, win-back, welcome, and post-purchase flows are built in and trigger on real Shopify events.
When might Mailchimp be the better fit?
If your email marketing goes well beyond an ecommerce store, Mailchimp's general-purpose feature set may suit you better. Fluxo is focused on doing Shopify commerce marketing exceptionally well.
