Thank you, it works! I only have a doubt about url but I found the answer here, https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8425701/ajax-mailchimp-signup-form-integration. API key is not needed.

Yeah, the url has to be your own so replaced part of the urls by ownurl. Glad this helps you out @katialeon

Nice man!

Having issues setting this up. I have replaced everything accordingly, however the form just submits and says "thanks for subscribing" at the buttom without redirecting. Please help! Is there a special place I should add the Javascript?

I can't get this to work without attaching an onclick command in the button code, but when I do that the contact does not get saved in Mailchimp. Any thoughts? This is the form here: https://kathipickett.com/events/introduction-to-chakras
