Contact Form for Wix — No App Needed

Wix's built-in Wix Forms widget works, but it's limited — no webhooks, no CSV/XML/PDF export, no custom spam rules. The fix is to skip it and embed a plain HTML form instead: in the Wix Editor, add an Embed Code → HTML iframe element and paste a form that POSTs to https://splitforms.com/api/submit with your access key in a hidden field. splitforms handles email delivery, spam filtering, and dashboard storage — free for up to 500 submissions a month, no Wix app or app fee required.

How to Add a Contact Form to Wix in 5 Steps

1. Get your free access key at splitforms.com/login — no credit card required.
2. In the Wix Editor, click + Add Elements → Embed Code → Embed HTML
3. Choose "Code" and paste the form HTML below into the code box
4. Replace YOUR_ACCESS_KEY with the access key from your splitforms dashboard
5. Publish your site — submit a test message and confirm it lands in your inbox and the dashboard

<form action="https://splitforms.com/api/submit" method="POST">
  <input type="hidden" name="access_key" value="YOUR_ACCESS_KEY">
  <input type="hidden" name="subject" value="New message from Wix contact form">

  <label>Name</label>
  <input type="text" name="name" required>

  <label>Email</label>
  <input type="email" name="email" required>

  <label>Service</label>
  <select name="service">
    <option value="general">General Question</option>
    <option value="quote">Quote Request</option>
    <option value="booking">Booking</option>
  </select>

  <label>Message</label>
  <textarea name="message" rows="4" required></textarea>

  <!-- Honeypot: bots fill this field, real visitors never see it -->
  <input type="checkbox" name="botcheck" style="display:none" tabindex="-1" autocomplete="off">

  <!-- Time-trap: rejects submissions sent in under 2 seconds -->
  <input type="hidden" name="form_loaded_at" value="">
  <script>document.currentScript.previousElementSibling.value = Date.now();</script>

  <button type="submit">Send</button>
</form>

Wix Forms vs. a Custom HTML Contact Form

Wix's default form widget collects submissions, but it stops there — no webhooks, no CSV/XML/PDF export, and no spam rules beyond Wix's own filtering. Pointing a plain HTML form at splitforms instead adds:

• Spam filtering — honeypot, time-trap, and server-side content heuristics, included on the free plan
• A dashboard with lead statuses and a recycle bin, included on the free plan
• CSV/XML/PDF export — Starter, $1/mo
• Webhooks and native integrations (Google Sheets, Slack, Notion, Airtable, and more) — Starter, $1/mo
• Auto-responder emails to your visitor — Starter, $1/mo

Stopping Spam on a Public Wix Form

Any form embedded in a published Wix site is public HTML, so it will get probed by bots. The snippet above ships with two layers built in: a botcheck honeypot that bots fill in but visitors never see, and a form_loaded_at time-trap that rejects anything submitted in under two seconds. Every submission also passes through server-side content filtering, and you can lock the form to your own domain with allowed origins or bolt on reCAPTCHA v2 if you need another layer. More detail in the spam-free contact form guide →.

Send Wix Form Submissions to Google Sheets or Slack

Once your Wix contact form is live, route every submission into the tools your team already uses. On Starter ($1/mo) and above, connect a native integration from Dashboard → Integrations — Google Sheets, Slack, Notion, Airtable, Discord, Telegram, WhatsApp, or Mailchimp — and new rows or messages appear automatically, no relay server required. Prefer your own stack? Add a generic, HMAC-SHA256-signed webhook and pipe submissions into Zapier, Make, or n8n.
