Sending Corksy Segments to Klaviyo & Mailchimp (Classic vs. Dynamic)

Corksy has two segmentation versions — Classic (manual push) and Dynamic (auto-sync). How to tell which you have and how to send segments in each.

Corksy has two versions of customer segmentation, and which one your account uses affects how segments reach Klaviyo or Mailchimp. Both are live — accounts are on one or the other.

Which version do I have?

Look at the segmentation area in your Corksy admin:

  • Version 1 (Classic): the section is labeled just “Segmentation.” You build segments by choosing from dropdowns / predefined options, then manually send them to your email platform.

  • Version 2 (newer, beta): the section has a Beta sticker and is labeled something like “Segmentation and Email Marketing.” You can type what you want in plain language to build a segment, and you can build and send email campaigns inside Corksy. Segments can also keep themselves up to date automatically.

Version 1 (Classic): send a segment manually

  1. Go to the Segmentation area under Marketing and create or open a segment (choosing from the predefined options).

  2. Open the segment and click Actions → Send.

  3. Choose Klaviyo or Mailchimp and give it a list/tag name so it’s easy to find in your email platform.

  4. Save to push the audience.

Key things to know:

  • This is a one-time push (a snapshot). If the audience changes later, send it again to update your email platform.

  • Corksy pushes first name, last name, and email. Only marketing opted-in customers are sent.

  • Klaviyo and Mailchimp de-duplicate by email, so re-sending won’t create duplicate contacts.


Version 2 (newer): type-to-build segments that can auto-sync

On the newer version you type what you want (for example, “customers who bought Pinot Noir and attended a tasting”) instead of picking from dropdowns, and segments can keep themselves current:

  • Static segments push once at creation (like Classic).

  • Dynamic segments sync once per day (12:00 AM PST) — Corksy automatically adds newly qualifying customers and removes those who no longer qualify, as a marketing list.

  • You can also build and send email campaigns directly in Corksy (no export needed).
