QUOTE REQUEST · WORDPRESS

Quote Request for WordPress

Q: Does this quote request work on WordPress?

Yes. The form is plain HTML with a single POST endpoint, so it runs on any WordPress site without server-side code, plugins, or SDKs. Drop the snippet into a WordPress page or component and submissions land in your splitforms dashboard.

Q: How much does the quote request cost on WordPress?

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.

Q: Can I customize the fields?

Yes. The template ships with sensible defaults (name, email, phone, company…) — add, remove, or rename any of them. Splitforms accepts whatever fields you POST.

Q: How does spam protection work on the quote request?

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 WordPress as on any other framework.

Q: Can I send the quote request 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.

Q: Will it work on a static WordPress 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.

Q: How do I route by line of business?

The line-of-business multi-select drives the webhook branch. Auto/home (P&C) goes to one Slack channel and AMS workflow; life goes to another (often a different licensed producer); commercial / business goes to a third. Most agencies have specialists per line — the form respects that org structure.

Q: Do I need to mention E&O on the form?

Not on the form itself, but the auto-responder and quote PDFs should reference your agency's E&O coverage and licensing. State insurance departments require disclosure of license numbers in marketing — add to the site footer at minimum, the form's thank-you page ideally.

Q: Can I integrate with AgencyZoom / EZLynx / Applied Epic / Vertafore?

Yes — webhook the JSON. AgencyZoom and EZLynx accept inbound leads via direct webhooks; Applied Epic and Vertafore (HawkSoft) accept via Zapier or their respective AMS APIs. The quote pre-loads with line, current carrier, and renewal date — saves the producer 5-10 minutes per quote.

Lead-capture form for agencies, freelancers, and service businesses. Free for 500 submissions per month — no backend, no SDK, no plugin.

§ 00WordPress + Quote Requestplatform-specific integration guide

Why WordPress developers choose splitforms for quote request

WordPress contact form plugins (Contact Form 7, WPForms, Fluent Forms) work but add database bloat, update fatigue, and a monthly subscription for features like webhook delivery or advanced spam controls. The quote request on this page drops into a Custom HTML block — no PHP, no plugin activation, no settings page to configure. Every field POSTs to splitforms as standard form data, so your WordPress admin stays clean. You keep using WordPress for content management and page building while splitforms handles the form pipeline.

§ 00Quick answerPHP · lead capture

Yes — this is the shortest safe path for WordPress.

Use the PHP snippet on this page, keep the quote request fields visible in your WordPress UI, and let splitforms handle delivery, spam filtering, storage, and webhooks.

best implementation

Paste the PHP version, then replace YOUR_ACCESS_KEY.

The posted payload contains name, email, phone, company, budget, tell us about the project. Required fields are name, email, phone, budget and tell us about the project.

native wordpress reality

use case fit

Insurance leads are speed-to-quote sensitive — the broker that gets the quote out within an hour of inquiry wins the bind. The form captures line of business and renewal date so the quote process starts immediately.

§ 03bInsurance Broker Quote Request Formtemplate-specific playbook

The reason this quote request exists.

Speed-to-quote wins · webhooks into AgencyZoom / EZLynx / Applied / Vertafore.

why it matters

Independent insurance brokers compete with direct carriers (Geico, Progressive, State Farm) and lead-gen platforms (LendingTree Insurance, EverQuote) — the win is speed-to-quote and personal touch. Brokers earn 10-15% commission on auto/home premiums and 50-100%+ on life policies (year-1). The form captures line of business (auto / home / life / business / umbrella / multi-line), current carrier, renewal date, and basic data (driver count / property address / business revenue depending on line). Speed matters: quotes delivered within 4 hours of inquiry close at 35-45%, vs 10-15% for next-day quotes. Webhook into AgencyZoom / EZLynx / Applied Epic so the AMS pre-loads the quote workflow.

route the submission

Capture line of business

Required: line(s) of business (auto / home / life / business / umbrella / health / multi-line — multi-select), current carrier, current renewal date, primary contact info.

Branch by line

Webhook routes by line — auto/home goes to the P&C team queue, life goes to the life specialist, business / commercial goes to the producer who handles BOPs and umbrellas. Different quote workflows, different carriers.

Quote within hours

Webhook to AgencyZoom / EZLynx / Applied Epic — the AMS pre-loads the quote with current carrier and renewal date. Speed-to-quote under 4 hours triples close rate vs next-day. SMS the quote link via Twilio for the highest urgency leads.

§ 03cWordPress production notesnative path · deploy · gotchas

What changes when this quote request lives in WordPress.

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

without splitforms

WordPress core has no contact-form feature — every contact form on a WP site is either a plugin (Contact Form 7, WPForms, Gravity Forms, Forminator, Fluent Forms, Ninja Forms) or a custom theme template. Plugins add 3-7 database tables, increase TTFB by 50-300ms, and most require a paid SMTP plugin (WP Mail SMTP) on top because shared-host PHP mail() lands in spam. CF7 alone is 1.2MB of JS/CSS loaded on every page. Anti-spam is a separate Akismet subscription ($10/mo for commercial use) or a paid CAPTCHA plugin. Splitforms replaces the plugin: a <form> tag in a Custom HTML block, pointing at our endpoint, with a hidden access_key field. No plugin, no extra DB tables, no SMTP gymnastics.

deploy notes

WordPress runs on shared hosts (Bluehost, Hostinger), managed WP hosts (Kinsta, WP Engine, Pressable), or self-hosted Apache/nginx. The form's POST is cross-origin to splitforms.com, so the host doesn't matter for delivery. Caching plugins (WP Rocket, W3 Total Cache, LiteSpeed Cache) cache the page that hosts the form — that's fine, the form action URL is static. Don't proxy through WP's admin-ajax.php or wp_remote_post — adds latency and re-introduces the SMTP problem. For Multisite, use one access key per site or a shared key with form-name to disambiguate. Headless WP (Next.js/Astro front) doesn't involve PHP at all — use the matching framework's snippet.

WordPress gotcha

WordPress wpautop() mangles your form HTML in posts

If you paste a <form> directly into a Classic Editor post, WordPress's wpautop filter wraps random <p> tags around your inputs and breaks the markup. Use a Custom HTML block (block editor) or a theme template file instead — wpautop doesn't touch those.

WordPress gotcha

Caching plugins (WP Rocket, W3 Total Cache) cache the form page itself

Page caching is fine — your form posts to splitforms.com directly, not a WordPress endpoint, so the cached HTML still works. But if you ever switch to a WP-side handler (e.g. wp_ajax), exclude /contact/ from the page cache or submissions will hit a stale page.

WordPress gotcha

Theme-injected JavaScript can hijack form submission

Some themes (Astra, OceanWP, GeneratePress 'Premium') auto-attach AJAX handlers to every form on the page. Add data-no-ajax="true" or a custom class your theme excludes — or use a Custom HTML block which most themes leave alone.

WordPress gotcha

Cloudflare Bot Fight Mode blocks splitforms responses

If you proxy your WP site through Cloudflare with Bot Fight Mode on, the redirect from splitforms.com → /thanks may be flagged. Whitelist your domain in splitforms's allowed-domains list AND ensure /thanks is reachable without a Cloudflare challenge.

PATTERN A

Pattern A — Custom HTML block (Block Editor / Gutenberg)

Drop a Custom HTML block on any page or post. Survives theme switches and plugin updates. No PHP required, no theme file editing. Reusable Patterns let you save the form once and drop it on every page. Use the same wiring for the quote request fields on this page.

pattern-a.phpphp9 lines

01<form action="https://splitforms.com/api/submit" method="POST">
02  <input type="hidden" name="access_key" value="YOUR_ACCESS_KEY" />
03  <input type="hidden" name="redirect" value="/thanks/" />
04  <p><label>Name <input name="name" required /></label></p>
05  <p><label>Email <input name="email" type="email" required /></label></p>

07  <input type="checkbox" name="botcheck" style="display:none" tabindex="-1" />
08  <p><button type="submit">Send</button></p>
09</form>

PATTERN B

Pattern B — theme template with key from wp-config constant

For developer-managed themes (Bedrock/Sage/classic), define SPLITFORMS_KEY as a constant in wp-config.php and echo it via esc_attr(). Keeps the key out of the theme repo, lets staging and production read different keys via environment. Use the same wiring for the quote request fields on this page.

pattern-b.phpphp8 lines

01<?php // page-contact.php in your theme ?>
02<form action="https://splitforms.com/api/submit" method="POST">
03  <input type="hidden" name="access_key" value="<?php echo esc_attr( SPLITFORMS_KEY ); ?>" />
04  <input type="hidden" name="redirect"   value="<?php echo esc_url( home_url('/thanks') ); ?>" />
