How to add a booking or deposit button to your quote form

Step by step

1. Pick the link

   Use your booking page, a payment link for a fixed deposit, or a page on your own site. The link has to start with https:// and go to a public website, so a phone link (tel:), an email link (mailto:), an IP address or a local address is not accepted. For calls, link to a page that shows your number.

2. Pick the words

   Up to 40 characters, saying what happens: "Book a site visit", "Pay the $50 deposit", "Ask us to call you". Anything past 40 characters is cut off.

3. Ask ChatGPT

   Send the request below with your form name, words and link. The reply names the button and the link it opens. If it does not, nothing was saved: ask again with both the label and the url.

4. Try it once

   Open your form, fill it in and submit it. The button opens your link in a new tab, so the thank-you screen stays open behind it.

The words to say

Copy this into ChatGPT (with CalcForms added) and fill in the brackets.

What you will see

A reply that names your button and the link it opens. The next customer who submits the form sees it.

Common mistakes

• Expecting the link to carry the price. The button opens your link exactly as you gave it, without your customer's answers or total, so a payment link suits a fixed deposit.
• Asking for a second button. Each form has one. To change it, set the label and url again.
