Option 3: Create a customer list and import customers to it.

2. Copy or write down the list name, you will need this exactly as it appears here.
3. Click the Finish button.
4. Import your file. Need help with the import? Check out this article.

Import File Format Note: You do not need to have both the account number and email address on your import file. You can have one or the other. If you only have one do not include the other column in your file. If you only have one it is recommended to use the Account Number when possible. If you are a client that uses partitions you will need to use the account number as email address is likely not a unique identifier for your customers. See below for an example.

Option 4: Add customers from an existing Subscriber Group or Customer List.
