Create a purchase form in Carrd

In this article we'll show you how to use Carrd's form builder to create a Foxy purchase form.

Add Foxy Code Snippet

  1. In the Foxy dashboard, go to the Sample Code page.
  2. On the Sample Code page, copy the snippet of code from Step 1.
  3. In Carrd, click on the "Add an element" icon.
  4. From the elements menu, click on the "Embed" option.
  5. In the Embed panel, set the "Style" to "Hidden".
  6. Paste the snippet of code you just copied into the "Code" field.
  7. Click on the "Done" button to save your changes.
