About the Klaviyo integration
The Klaviyo integration for Brevo is free. It allows you to sync your contacts from Klaviyo to Brevo at a custom frequency, which means that:
- Your existing and new contacts are imported from Klaviyo to Brevo.
- If you update your contacts in Klaviyo, the changes are reflected in Brevo.
The Klaviyo integration has some limitations:
- You can only import one list at a time.
- Contacts created or updated in Brevo will not be reflected in Klaviyo.
- Your contacts will be subscribed to your email campaigns and transactional emails in Brevo.

Confirm the consent of your contacts
Only contacts who have consented to receive updates from you in the last two years can be imported into Brevo. That's why, before activating the integration, we ask you to confirm that your import adheres to our conditions:
- If you are importing only contacts who have consented to receive updates from you, check the box.
- If you are importing contacts who have not consented to receive updates from you (e.g. contacts from a purchased or rented list), make sure you clean your Klaviyo contact list and remove any contact that does not adhere to our conditions before restarting the integration setup again.
❗️ ImportantBrevo reserves the right to suspend or cancel any email or SMS campaigns sent to contacts that did not consent to receive updates from you.
Activate the integration
To enable the integration, click Save settings and activate app. You will be redirected to the My Integrations page, where you can view and manage the new Klaviyo integration.
Part 2: Check your contacts
Now that you have connected and configured the Klaviyo integration in Brevo, your Klaviyo contacts will be imported into Brevo. The synchronization process may take several minutes, depending on the number of contacts to import. You will receive an email once the import and synchronization of your Klaviyo contacts to Brevo are done.
Once you receive the email, access the list by going to Contacts > Lists and choosing the folder in which you created it. You will see that your Klaviyo contacts details have been added to the list of contacts you selected during the Klaviyo integration setup:
