The Mailchimp integration makes it possible to add a registrant to a mailchimp list.
But instead of adding users to a specific list, because that basically creates redundant contact persons in mailchimp, it would be better to be able to "tag" a user for a specific webinar.
That way you can tag users according to interest, and use to segment your email marketing.
In mailchimp, tags can be achieved by adding the users to a group, or a mail merge field.
Being able to select a group would be the best solution, since the user is able to deselect the group if she/he chooses to.
Please see this example : https://imju.me/mailchimp-api-3-0-adding-group-to-subscriber-10d22478003c
And this regarding groups: https://mailchimp.com/help/add-subscribers-to-groups/
The Mailchimp API for group access can be found here:

Mailchimp just added Taggin ability as well Tagging would be cool, so you can tagg the users that sign up for a webinar and use this feature to create a segment for your email marketing.

I agree with the tagging. As soon as I was integrating Mailchimp and thinking about the workflow, it makes more sense to add a feature to specific Tags so all the users go into the same list.

Yes, tags or groups would make that more reasonable.

This should work in opposite direction as well. Host should be able to create an invite list in bigmarker from a tag, segment or group of a certain list and not be limited to creating the invite list from an entire mailchimp list (which is useless based on how we and most use mailchimp I would surmise.)

Please add this feature. It's been almost 4 years and it still isn't possible to use Mailchimp tagging or groups.

Adding on to the pile here. Please allow us to map to MailChimp "Groups" & "Tags" instead of just Mailchimp "Audiences."
