Click **Save** List.
You're prompted to confirm creation. Click **Cancel** to back out, or **Create List** to create the list at this time.

Consider Before You Create
Be intentional about creating new lists. As _soon_ as you confirm creation, your customers can see and opt our of this list in your [subscription center](🔗). You _can't_ delete or archive lists once you've created them.
You can now [add contacts to your list (unsubscribe them from this message type)](🔗) or work with your account manager to import multiple contacts at once.
