Change Your Account Billing Settings

It’s important to keep your account billing information up-to-date to help ensure your payments are processed and paid plans stay active. Your billing information also determines your payment options and tax charges.

In this article, you’ll learn how to change your billing contact information, update and view tax information, change your billing currency, and change your billing notification.

Things to know

Here are some things to know.

• If you’re an account Owner or Admin, you’ll be able to view and update billing information. If billing information isn’t available in your account, an Owner or Admin can change your user level.
• Mailchimp accepts all major credit and debit cards, PayPal, SEPA Direct Debit, and iDEAL. Learn how to Change or Update Your Payment Method.

Also, direct debit is only available to certain countries and is only connected when purchasing a Mailchimp plan or add-on.

Change your billing contact information

In many cases, your billing contact information and your primary contact information will be the same. However, there are some circumstances where it might be helpful for them to be different.

Here are some things to know about how your billing contact information affects your account.

• Your billing contact information appears on your receipts.
• Your billing contact address can influence your payment or billing currency options, but doesn’t influence tax charges.
• The billing contact email address only receives payment receipts, but otherwise can’t be used to access your account. This is helpful if you want to send receipts directly to someone else in your organization, like an accountant.

Change your billing notification settings

Change your billing notification settings in the Notifications section on the Billing information page. Receipts and billing notifications are sent to the billing contact email address.

  Choose this option to label your receipt header as "Invoice" for legal or accounting reasons. This option will only change how receipts are titled, everything else will remain the same.
