Why Next.js developers choose splitforms for contact form (with phone)
Next.js Server Actions handle the submit side but still leave you wiring SMTP, spam filtering, file uploads, and a dashboard. splitforms replaces all of that with one <code>fetch('/api/submit')</code> call. The contact form (with phone) works identically in App Router and Pages Router — it's just a <code>FormData</code> POST, no router-specific magic. Because Next.js pre-renders pages, the form HTML is in the DOM before any JavaScript executes, meaning instant Time-to-Interactive. The honeypot field is invisible to users but catches bots that scrape rendered HTML — especially important for Next.js sites where the form HTML is statically generated and predictable.
Yes — this is the shortest safe path for Next.js.
Use the React / Next.js snippet on this page, keep the contact form (with phone) fields visible in your Next.js UI, and let splitforms handle delivery, spam filtering, storage, and webhooks.
Paste the React / Next.js 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.
Without splitforms, you'd write a route handler at app/api/contact/route.ts, parse the FormData, configure SMTP via nodemailer or Resend (~10 minutes of secrets wrangling), add a Postgres or SQLite store for submissions, and then bolt on rate limiting, a honeypot check, an email-classifier or reCAPTCHA, and webhook fan-out.
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.

The reason this contact form (with phone) exists.
Mobile-friendly numeric keypad, live mask, format-tolerant.
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.
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.
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}"`.
(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.
What changes when this contact form (with phone) lives in Next.js.
These notes come from the Next.js platform registry and are rendered on this template page so crawlers see the framework-specific answer without opening a separate guide.
Without splitforms, you'd write a route handler at app/api/contact/route.ts, parse the FormData, configure SMTP via nodemailer or Resend (~10 minutes of secrets wrangling), add a Postgres or SQLite store for submissions, and then bolt on rate limiting, a honeypot check, an email-classifier or reCAPTCHA, and webhook fan-out. Server actions made the wiring slightly tidier in Next 14+, but the operational cost stays the same: a function with a runtime, a database, an outbound email provider, an inbox to monitor, and your name on the spam-filter incident report. Splitforms collapses all of that into a POST to a single URL.
On Vercel, the form works on every plan tier — server actions and client components both run inside the same edge/serverless function. Don't put the splitforms fetch inside a Vercel cron or background function (it's user-facing, latency matters). On Netlify with the Next runtime, server actions need the latest @netlify/plugin-nextjs (≥5.6). For self-hosted / Docker: configure output: 'standalone' in next.config.ts and pass SPLITFORMS_KEY as a runtime env var — never bake it into the image. For static export (output: 'export'), use the client-component path only — server actions aren't supported in static mode.
Don't expose your access key client-side without domain locking
Inlining access_key in a "use client" component makes the key visible to anyone who views source. That's fine if you've enabled allowed-domains in your Splitforms dashboard (Settings → Security) — anyone copying the key from your bundle can't use it from a different origin. If you haven't, use a server action so the key stays on the server.
Server actions need `'use server'` and a real form, not fetch
If you submit to a server action via <form action={myAction}>, Next handles the FormData serialization for you. If you call the action manually with fetch, you have to set the right Content-Type and stringify yourself. Pick one path and stick with it — mixing causes 'Server Action invalid' errors.
App Router + Suspense + useSearchParams = static-prerender bailout
If your form reads ?next=/something to support post-submit redirects, useSearchParams forces the page out of static generation. Either wrap the inner component in a <Suspense fallback={<Skeleton/>}> so the wrapper still prerenders, or accept dynamic rendering for the form route only.
Vercel Edge runtime can't read FormData from `multipart/form-data`
If your route handler uses export const runtime = 'edge' and the form posts as multipart (file inputs), it'll silently miss fields. Use application/x-www-form-urlencoded or remove the edge runtime declaration.
Pattern A — server action (no client JS, key stays server-side)
Form posts to a server action; the action appends the access key from process.env.SPLITFORMS_KEY and proxies to splitforms. Works without JavaScript, key never reaches the bundle. Use the same wiring for the contact form (with phone) fields on this page.
Pattern B — client component with fetch and inline status
'use client' component using useState for a 4-state status machine. Lets you show a spinner, inline errors, optimistic resets — at the cost of a hydration boundary. Use NEXT_PUBLIC_SPLITFORMS_KEY and rely on splitforms' domain-locking for safety. Use the same wiring for the contact form (with phone) fields on this page.
