How to add a popup form to your Square website

Edited

A step-by-step guide to embedding a Flodesk popup form on your Square Online website.

Flodesk forms help you capture your visitors' email addresses so you can grow your list and stay connected with your audience.

Popup forms appear on top of your website content and encourage visitors to subscribe to your newsletter, freebie, or updates. Once installed, the popup will appear across your entire Square Online site.

This guide walks you through how to add your Flodesk popup form to a Square Online website.

Before you start

Make sure you have:

  • A popup form created in Flodesk

  • Access to your Square Dashboard with permissions to manage your Square Online site

The popup form works by adding a small piece of code (called the header code) to your website. In Square Online, you'll add this code through the Tracking Tools section of your site settings.

  2. Go to Forms.

  3. Create a Popup form.

  4. Customize the design, text, and settings.

When your form is ready, click Embed.

You will see the Header Code. Copy this code, you'll add it to your Square Online site in the next step.

Step 2: Add the popup header code to your Square Online site

  1. Sign in to your Square Dashboard.

  2. Go to Channels, then select Square Online.

  3. Select Settings, then Tracking Tools.

  6. Select head as the placement option.

  7. Select Save.

  8. Open your site editor and publish your site to see the popup live.

Your popup form will now appear on your Square Online website based on the display settings you configured in Flodesk.

FAQ

Why isn't my popup form showing on my website?
Check the following:

  • The header code was copied completely from Flodesk

  • The code was pasted into the Tracking Tools section with head selected as the placement

  • Your site has been published after adding the code

You may also need to refresh your browser or test in an incognito window.

Do I need to add the code more than once?
No. Adding the code once through Tracking Tools will apply it across your entire Square Online site. If you update your popup design in Flodesk, those changes will automatically reflect on your site without needing to re-add the code.

Can I customize when the popup appears?
Yes. Popup timing, triggers, and display behavior are controlled inside the Flodesk popup form settings.

For example, you can choose to show the popup:

  • Immediately

  • Time delay

  • Scroll percentage

Will the popup work on mobile devices?
Yes. Flodesk popup forms are mobile-responsive, meaning they automatically adjust to display properly on phones and tablets.
