Embed basics in Kiwiform

What Is Embedding?

Embedding means adding your form inside your website using a small piece of code.

Instead of sending visitors to a separate share link, the form loads directly within your page layout.

This helps you:

• Keep visitors on your site

• Maintain brand consistency

• Increase completion rates

• Reduce drop-offs

How Kiwiform Embedding Works

Kiwiform uses Universal Embed (custom embed script).

When you copy the embed code, it loads your form dynamically using a secure script.
You simply paste this code into your website’s HTML section.

Once embedded:

• Any changes made in Kiwiform automatically update

• No need to replace the code again

• Your form stays synced

Where to Find Embed Options

To access embed settings:

1. Open your form

2. Click Share

3. Select Embed Form in Web page

From there, you can:

• Create a new embed

• Customize layout

• Adjust display settings

• Choose platform-specific instructions

Embed Modes Explained

Kiwiform provides different display styles depending on how you want your form to appear.

1. Inline Embed

Displays your form directly inside the content area of your website.

Best for:

• Contact pages

• Landing pages

• Product pages

2. Popup / Modal Embed

Opens the form in a popup overlay.

Best for:

• Newsletter signups

Customization Options

Inside the Embed Design panel, you can adjust:

Width

• Set to 100% for responsive layouts (recommended)

• Or define fixed width in pixels

Height

• Auto (recommended for most cases)

• Fixed height if needed

Full Screen on Mobile
Optimizes the experience for smaller screens.

Hide Headers
Removes extra spacing if you want tighter integration.

Background Transparency
Blend your form with your website background.

These options help your form match your site design perfectly.

Creating Multiple Embeds

You can create multiple embed versions of the same form.

This is useful if:

• You want different layouts for different pages

• You need separate styling for mobile and desktop

• You’re testing different placements

Each embed can have its own configuration without affecting the main form.

Why Embedding Matters

When users stay on your website:

• Trust increases

• Friction decreases

• Completion rates improve

As a free Typeform alternative, Kiwiform combines beautiful form design with flexible embedding options, without plugins or complicated setup.

Best Practices for Better Conversions

To get the best results:

• Use 100% width for responsiveness

• Place forms above the fold when possible

• Add a clear headline above your form

• Avoid embedding inside hidden tabs or accordions

• Test on both desktop and mobile

Embedding improves performance when the form is clearly visible and easy to complete.
