I want to integrate mailchimp with wordpress without using plugins

Question

I have used this after my form.But my entry does not go to the mailchimp account. Please tell me if anything missing. Please refer the below code.

<?php

// SUBSCRIBE TO MAILING LIST OPTION - ADD TO MAILCHIMP USING API
if ($_POST['emailUpdates'] == 'Yes')
{
    // Include Mailchimp API class
    require_once('MCAPI.class.php');

    // Your API Key: http://admin.mailchimp.com/account/api/
    $api = new MCAPI('xxxxxxxxx-us15');

    // Your List Unique ID: http://admin.mailchimp.com/lists/ (Click "settings")
    $list_id = "xxxxxxx";

    // Variables in your form that match up to variables on your subscriber
    // list. You might have only a single 'name' field, no fields at all, or more
    // fields that you want to sync up.
    $merge_vars = array(
        'FNAME' => $_POST['signup_first_name'],
        'LNAME' => $_POST['signup_last_name']
    );

    // SUBSCRIBE TO LIST
    if ($api->listSubscribe($list_id, $_POST['signup_user_email'], $merge_vars) === true)
    {
        $mailchimp_result = 'Success! Check your email to confirm sign up.';
    }
    else
    {
        $mailchimp_result = 'Error: ' . $api->errorMessage;
    }
}

?>

This is the code I used for one of my project I change some details like id and api_key as you can see I made custom shortcode for this and also you will see the location of user from where they fill up the form by IP

[mail_chimp_form]

<?php 
/*-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    MAIL CHIMP API
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------*/

function rudr_mch_subscribe() {
    $list_id = 'XXXXX';
    $api_key = 'XXXXXXXX-us15';
    $ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
   $details = json_decode(file_get_contents("http://ipinfo.io/{$ip}/json"));
    $cnt=$details->country; 
    $result = json_decode(rudr_mailchimp_subscriber_status($_POST['email'], 'subscribed', $list_id, $api_key, array('FNAME' => $firstname, 'LNAME' => $lastname),array('country_code'=>'".$cnt."')));
    // print_r($result);
            if ($resul->status == 400) {
                foreach ($result->errors as $error) {
                    echo '<p>Error: ' . $error->message . '</p>';
                }
            } elseif ($result->status == 'subscribed') {
                echo 'Thanks for Subscribing!';
            }
            die;

You can set up a sync from WordPress to Mailchimp without any code or plugins using zzBots.

You can read more about this sync here: https://www.zzbots.com/community/how-to/sync-new-wordpress-users-to-mailchimp

This specific sync, or integration, is designed to automatically sync new WordPress users to Mailchimp as new subscribers. Although, you can use zzBots to integrate these two app together in many different ways.
