How it sells itself

Ask for a list, not just a field. A repeating group puts description, quantity and price on one line with an Add another button, so wholesale orders, quotes and claims arrive as a proper table instead of one long paragraph. The form renders in your theme's own HTML with documented class names, so your CSS styles it like any other section, and there is a per-form CSS box for the rest.

Create professional-looking forms with no coding using Powerful Contact Form Builder. Integrated with many 3rd party applications like Mailchimp, Klavio, Ominisend, Sendinblue, Google Calendar... Easy to display custom form on any pages such as: product page, collection page, cart page, home page, etc. Let your customers upload file or image when they submit your form.

Key points
  • Repeating groups: repeat a whole row of fields, with add and remove per row
  • Renders in your theme's DOM, with documented classes and per-form custom CSS
  • 25+ field types, conditional logic and multi-step forms
  • Notifications and automatic replies, sent from your own domain
  • Customer account registration forms, customer fields.
  • Create custom forms with file upload, image upload option.
  • Send autoresponder emails and integrate form data with Klaviyo, MailChimp, etc.
  • Easy to build contact us form with captcha, condition logic, etc.
