A sign up form for every creator
Every creator puts their own spin on their email sign up forms. Minimal or visual, long or short, pop up or slide in, the possibilities with forms are endless.
Here are some of the top ways our creators use sign up forms.
Delivering a freebie
Adding freebies (a.k.a. content upgrades or opt-in incentives) to the bottom of blog posts or sidebars of your site is a mutually beneficial way to grow your email list. Your subscriber gets something they need, and in exchange, you get their email address.
I can set up a form to send an incentive in under 5 minutes with ConvertKit. With incentives such as quick printables, I've been able to grow my list to over 50,000 email subscribers!
Look good on all devices
Whether you use a sidebar or pop-up sign up form, we’ve created our templates to be responsive to any platform.
Their simple, but beautiful design standard makes your content and offer the hero.
Customize sign up forms to your branding
Use our templates as a starting point and then customize everything from the colors, texts, and imagery to fit your brand. No complicated code required.
Collect custom data
Create custom fields to gather specific data points like their first name, last name, dog’s name, and more to help segment your audience and send them targeted content.
Adding a sign up form to your website is easy
The placement and appearance of your sign up forms can be tailored to meet the needs of your site and specific pages.
Want a different pop up for each blog post? A static sidebar opt-in? A sliding form that shows up at the bottom of the page? We can do that! We even have multiple ways to embed your forms depending on your level of experience. JavaScript? HTML? Zapier? It’s up to you.
Sign up form templates that work where you need them
Our forms can be embedded on all popular website or landing page builders via integration or by copy-and-pasting a single line of JavaScript.
No website yet? No problem! You can create a ConvertKit landing page (which we'll host for you) so you can get started building your email list.

Email marketing basics
Easily deliver valuable incentives
Forms aren’t just for new subscribers. Use them to deliver free content to your email list. These incentives give your readers something valuable in exchange for their email address. It’s a win for you and for them!
Automatic delivery
Set an incentive to be automatically delivered whenever someone fills out your form. All you need to do is upload the file in your account and we’ll do the rest.
Double opt-in for deliverability
When someone clicks to download your freebie file, they are also double opting into your list. That extra confirmation means blocking spammers and better deliverability rates for you.
Unlimited forms
Unlike some email providers that charge you every time a reader subscribes to a new form, we believe a subscriber should only cost you once. That means you can create as many incentives and forms as you want so your subscribers get what they want, when they want it.
It all starts with a form
From there your subscriber’s journey sets off into an automation. It could be an email course, an educational series, or a sales pitch that might lead to a new loyal customer.
However you use them to connect with your audience, automations are your hands-off way to create personalized, targeted messaging.

Once they’ve filled out the form, you can control what they see next with a success message.
Whether its a quick pop up message or you choose to redirect them to a custom thank you page, your subscriber will know you’ve got their information.
Custom content for repeat visitors
Repeat readers? No problem. You can keep it fresh by swapping out content or hiding a form so it doesn’t keep showing up for existing email subscribers who return to your site.
Stay GDPR compliant
We’ve got you covered when it comes to protecting your subscriber’s data and privacy.
Add checkboxes for consent
We’ve made it easy to gather consent from all new subscribers.
Redirect for consent
Don’t want checkboxes? Redirect visitors to a GDPR consent page.
Add privacy policy
Link to your privacy policy (or any document) right in the form’s content area.
We won’t charge you twice for the same subscriber
Did you know that your email provider might be charging you over and over again for the same subscriber? Instead of charging you every time a subscriber opts into a new form, we believe that a subscriber should be able to opt into unlimited forms and landing pages from you and only be counted once in your plan.
It’s called being subscriber-centric, and it means you can create content upgrades that focus on creating a great experience for your audience without worrying about the cost.
I love the forms and how well the incentive emails work as content upgrades. And all the statistics I get out the box are extremely useful!
