§ 00Carrd + Contact Form (with phone)platform-specific integration guide

Why Carrd developers choose splitforms for contact form (with phone)

Carrd's embed element lets you inject custom HTML into your one-page site — perfect for a lightweight contact form. Carrd Pro includes a native form feature, but it caps submissions at 100/month on paid plans and lacks webhook delivery. The contact form (with phone) on this page drops into a Carrd embed, posts to splitforms, and gives you 500 dashboard submissions/month free; Starter adds Slack/Discord notifications. No Carrd Pro upgrade needed for the form to work. The HTML is self-contained — Carrd's minimal runtime handles the display, splitforms handles the backend.

§ 00Quick answerHTML · lead capture

Yes — this is the shortest safe path for Carrd.

Use the HTML snippet on this page, keep the contact form (with phone) fields visible in your Carrd UI, and let splitforms handle delivery, spam filtering, storage, and webhooks.

best implementation

Paste the HTML version, then replace YOUR_ACCESS_KEY.

The posted payload contains full name, work email, phone, company, what's this about?, message. Required fields are full name, work email, phone, what's this about? and message.

native carrd reality

Carrd's Form widget requires Pro Standard ($19/year) just to exist on the page, and even then it doesn't deliver email itself — the form 'works' by posting to an external integration: Mailchimp, SendGrid, Basin, Formspree, etc.

use case fit

A contact form with a phone number field that auto-formats as the user types — (555) 123-4567 emerges from raw digits. Pure pattern validation, optional JS mask for the live formatting.

§ 03Setup3 steps · 60 seconds · zero config

Generate, embed, receive.

Three actions stand between you and your first contact form (with phone) submission. None of them require a backend, a database, or a CAPTCHA library.

STEP 01GENERATE

Generate a free splitforms key

Sign in at splitforms.com — your access key is created instantly. No credit card, no setup wizard, no SDK to install.

STEP 02EMBED

Paste the contact form (with phone) into your Carrd project

Drop the form snippet into a Carrd page, component, or layout. Replace YOUR_ACCESS_KEY with the key from your dashboard. The form action is a hard-coded URL — no env vars or build-time wiring needed.

§ 03bPhone Number Input Form (with masked input)template-specific playbook

The reason this contact form (with phone) exists.

Mobile-friendly numeric keypad, live mask, format-tolerant.

why it matters

Phone fields suffer from format chaos — users type +1 555 123 4567, (555) 123 4567, 555.123.4567, 5551234567. Three options: accept anything and normalize server-side (best for international), use a pattern attribute for client-side validation (good for US-only), or apply a JavaScript mask that formats as the user types (highest conversion, more code). splitforms accepts any format and your form's UX is whichever approach fits your audience.

route the submission
01

Use type="tel" not type="text"

Mobile keyboards open the numeric keypad for tel inputs. Desktop accepts the same characters as text but signals intent.

02

Add a pattern attribute for validation

`pattern="[0-9() +-]+"` allows the common phone characters. Or use a strict US format: `pattern="\(?\d{3}\)?[ -]?\d{3}[ -]?\d{4}"`.

03

(Optional) Add the JS mask

On input, strip non-digits and reformat to `(XXX) XXX-XXXX`. The mask runs on every keystroke, giving live formatting feedback.

§ 03cCarrd production notesnative path · deploy · gotchas

What changes when this contact form (with phone) lives in Carrd.

These notes come from the Carrd platform registry and are rendered on this template page so crawlers see the framework-specific answer without opening a separate guide.

without splitforms

Carrd's Form widget requires Pro Standard ($19/year) just to exist on the page, and even then it doesn't deliver email itself — the form 'works' by posting to an external integration: Mailchimp, SendGrid, Basin, Formspree, etc. So the question isn't 'native vs splitforms' but 'which third-party backend do you wire up?'. Mailchimp is overkill (and surprisingly expensive once your list grows); Basin and Formspree limit free submissions; SendGrid requires DNS verification. Splitforms is the same shape of integration (Type: Custom, Method: POST, Action: a URL) at a better free tier and with built-in spam filtering. Carrd's Form widget settings don't change.

deploy notes

Carrd publishes to a *.carrd.co subdomain on every plan; Pro Standard adds a custom domain. The form posts to splitforms from the browser, so neither subdomain nor custom domain matters for delivery. Lock the splitforms access key to BOTH the *.carrd.co URL and your custom domain — Carrd serves the same content under both, with different Origin headers. Carrd's Designer preview never actually POSTs; you have to publish (free) and submit from the live URL to test. Embed elements bypass Carrd's CSS, so the form will look browser-default unless you inline styles.

Carrd gotcha

Pro Standard plan still required for Custom form Type

Carrd's free plan and Pro Lite don't expose the Form widget at all. Pro Standard ($19/yr) unlocks the Form widget with Type → Custom. Splitforms doesn't change Carrd's plan requirements — it just fills in the backend that Carrd doesn't ship.

Carrd gotcha

Embed element forms don't inherit Carrd's site styles

If you paste raw HTML via an Embed element, your form will look like browser-default — no Carrd typography, no site colors. Use the native Form widget for styling, then add a hidden access_key field via Custom fields.

Carrd gotcha

Carrd's success message + splitforms redirect can fight each other

Carrd's Form widget has a built-in success message that shows on 2xx response. If you also set a redirect field in the form, the user sees the success blip then redirects mid-message. Pick one: redirect via splitforms OR Carrd's success text.

Carrd gotcha

The form widget's Field labels don't match input names by default

Carrd uses friendly labels like 'Your name', but the actual input name attribute is name-1 or similar unless you set Custom in the field settings. Set the Custom name to name, email, message — splitforms uses the input names as keys in your inbox.

PATTERN A

Pattern A — native Form widget set to Custom type

In the Form widget's settings, set Type to Custom, Method to POST, Action to the splitforms URL. Add a hidden field access_key via the Custom Fields tab. Carrd handles the styling and mobile layout; splitforms handles delivery. Use the same wiring for the contact form (with phone) fields on this page.

08</form>
PATTERN B

Pattern B — Embed element with full HTML control

Drop an Embed element into a Carrd section and paste raw HTML. Loses Carrd's auto-styling but lets you add a honeypot, multi-field validation, or custom redirect. Useful for waitlist or job-application forms that exceed the Form widget's capability. Use the same wiring for the contact form (with phone) fields on this page.

§ 06Questions9 answered

Contact Form (with phone) on CarrdFAQ.

Direct answers, no marketing fluff. Missing one? Email hello@splitforms.com.

01Does this contact form (with phone) work on Carrd?
Yes. The form is plain HTML with a single POST endpoint, so it runs on any Carrd site without server-side code, plugins, or SDKs. Drop the snippet into a Carrd page or component and submissions land in your splitforms dashboard.
02How much does the contact form (with phone) cost on Carrd?
Free for 500 submissions per month — no credit card, no trial. Pro is $5/mo for 5,000 submissions, and there's a one-time $59 3-year plan (15,000 submissions/mo for 36 months). The same pricing applies regardless of which framework hosts the form.
03Can I customize the fields?
Yes. The template ships with sensible defaults (full name, work email, phone, company…) — add, remove, or rename any of them. Splitforms accepts whatever fields you POST.
04How does spam protection work on the contact form (with phone)?
A hidden honeypot field catches dumb bots, and a tuned classifier scores the rest. You only see real submissions in your dashboard. No CAPTCHA, no friction for human users — and it works the same on Carrd as on any other framework.
05Can I send the contact form (with phone) submissions to Slack or Discord?
Yes. Webhooks are available on Starter and above, with auto-formatted payloads for Slack, Discord, and WhatsApp (via CallMeBot). Or send raw signed JSON to any URL — Zapier, n8n, your own server. Configure in the splitforms dashboard.
06Will it work on a static Carrd site?
Yes — the form posts directly to splitforms from the browser, so no server is involved. Works on Vercel, Netlify, GitHub Pages, Cloudflare Pages, S3, or any plain Apache host.
07Why use type="tel" if it doesn't do anything special on desktop?
Two reasons. (1) Mobile keyboards: tel triggers the numeric keypad, dramatically reducing typos. (2) Accessibility: screen readers announce the field type, helping users with assistive tech understand what's expected. The 'no desktop benefit' is a feature, not a bug — the behavior matches user intent.
08Should I validate international or US-only?
Depends on your audience. International contact forms should accept any format (use a permissive pattern + server-side normalization). US-only forms can use a strict pattern that matches `(555) 123-4567`. Either way, splitforms accepts whatever format the user submits — the validation is for UX, not data integrity.
09Does the JS mask work with paste?
Yes — listen for both `input` and `paste` events, and reformat on every change. The pattern only validates on submit, so the mask gives live feedback as the user types or pastes.
