# Manually import and export subscribers for newsletter referral program

Every newsletter referral program is connected to an email service provider or a subscriber list. You might be using an in-house solution or an ESP that Partnero does not have an integration with. In these cases, you can use the **Custom** integration option to import and export your subscriber list manually.

#### How to import subscribers

1. When [creating a newsletter referral program](/knowledge-base/newsletter-referral-programs/how-to-setup-a-newsletter-referral-program), select the **Custom** option under **ESP integration**:<img src="https://mintcdn.com/partnero/lwb17bn-7QtbLBj-/images/articles/manually-import-subscribers-for-newsletter-referral-program/5e8057e7.webp?fit=max&auto=format&n=lwb17bn-7QtbLBj-&q=85&s=b305f7f3935a3f9d0548fc6401e49b31" alt="" width="1702" height="818" data-path="images/articles/manually-import-subscribers-for-newsletter-referral-program/5e8057e7.webp" />
2. Click **Create**.

5. Click **Import**.
6. Once imported, each subscriber will be automatically assigned a unique referral link for sharing the newsletter as well as subscribe portal link to track their progress.
