Copy and ship

Your Multi-Step Form, ready to paste.

HTML by default — the same field set also renders as React, Next.js, PHP, and cURL in your dashboard. Every variant posts to the same /api/submit endpoint. Replace YOUR_ACCESS_KEY with the key from your dashboard; that's the only edit.

How to add it

How to add a Multi-Step Form to your site.

To add a Multi-Step Form to your site you need three things: a free splitforms access key, the HTML snippet above, and your key pasted into it. No backend, database, or CAPTCHA library — the form posts to one URL and every submission lands in your inbox and dashboard.

Copy the multi-step template

It's one HTML file — every step is a div, only one is visible at a time. The Next button validates the current step before advancing.

Add your questions

Each step is a labelled <div class="step"> with one question. Add as many as you want — the progress bar updates automatically based on count.

Submit on the final step

The Submit button on the last step does a POST to splitforms with all collected answers. Your inbox receives one email with the full structured response.

What's included

What's in this Multi-Step Form template?

Typeform charges $25/month for the question-at-a-time pattern. The pattern itself is just CSS (show one section at a time) plus a tiny step counter. We give you the working code for free — keyboard navigation, progress bar, validation per step, smooth transitions. The form still posts to splitforms in one request when the last step submits.

  • Feedback — 3 ready-made fields
  • HTML, JS, React, PHP, and cURL outputs
  • One POST endpoint, no SDK — honeypot and classifier, no CAPTCHA

  • Reply-to wired to the visitor's email — reply straight from your inbox

Questions

Multi-Step Form questions.

View all FAQs
Is this really better than Typeform?

It's free, it's yours, you own the code, and it works without their subdomain. Typeform's hosted UX has nice extras (logic jumps, calculator fields). For 80% of multi-step contact / qualification forms, this is enough.

Can I add conditional logic / branching?

The example is linear, but the structure is plain JS — adding 'if user picked X, jump to step 4' is one if-statement in the next-button handler. We have a recipe in the docs.

What about typeform's 'press Enter to submit'?

Already wired. Each text input listens for Enter and triggers the next step. Buttons trigger on click. Keyboard-first users have no friction.

Does multi-step hurt SEO?

Not really — search engines index the page's content (questions, headings, hero copy), not the interaction state. The questions are all in the HTML; only their visibility is toggled.
