ChargeForms
Features

A form builder that doesn't ration its own features

Every field type, every integration, every security check below is available on the Free plan. Upgrades unlock more depth — never core functionality.

Build

Design forms visually, see exactly what visitors will see.

A real-time builder with instant field previews, undo/redo history, and a searchable field palette — no separate 'preview mode' required, because the canvas already shows the finished form.

  • Live field previews — Every field renders exactly as it will on the front end, styled with your form's own theme.
  • Full undo/redo history — Experiment freely — every change is one keystroke away from being reverted.
  • Insert anywhere — Persistent + buttons let you drop a new field at any exact position, not just the end.

Build

Break long forms into a guided, higher-converting flow.

Turn any form into a multi-step wizard with a progress bar and per-step validation — visitors only ever see the fields relevant to the step they're on, reducing the intimidation of a long single-page form.

  • Visual progress bar — Shows exactly how far along a visitor is, reducing abandonment.
  • Per-step validation — Visitors can't advance past a step with invalid or missing required answers.
  • Back-and-forth navigation — Visitors can freely revisit earlier steps without losing their answers.

Payment
Collect & Grow

Accept payments without trusting the browser.

Stripe and PayPal-powered Payment Item, Custom Amount, and Payment Summary fields, including Stripe recurring subscriptions — but the charge amount is always recalculated server-side from your form's own configuration, and every payment is verified against the gateway's own API before an entry is ever created.

  • Server-authoritative pricing — A tampered client-side total is never trusted — the real charge is always recomputed server-side.
  • Anti-replay protection — A captured payment can't be reused on a second entry or a different form.
  • Real-time totals — Custom amounts and quantities update the visible total instantly as visitors fill out the form.

Collect & Grow

Every submission, searchable, filterable, exportable.

A dedicated Entries workspace — read/unread status, per-form filtering, date-range search, CSV export and import, and single-entry editing after the fact — so a submission is never just a row in your inbox.

  • CSV export, safely — Exports are hardened against formula/CSV-injection, not just raw un-sanitized cell values.
  • Edit after submission — Correct a typo'd entry without asking the visitor to resubmit the whole form.
  • Double opt-in — Hold an entry as pending until the visitor confirms via a hashed email link.

Collect & Grow

Understand your forms, not just store their data.

Submission-volume trends, top-performing forms, and per-field answer-distribution charts for every choice-type field — so you can see which options visitors actually pick, not just that they submitted something.

  • Per-field breakdowns — See the real answer distribution for Dropdown, Radio, and Checkbox fields.
  • Payment reporting — A dedicated Transactions view of every captured payment, tied back to its entry and form.
  • Trend charts — Submission volume over time, at a glance.

Real SMTP delivery, built in — not a Pro paywall.

Connect Gmail, Microsoft 365, Amazon SES, SendGrid, Mailgun, Brevo, Postmark, Zoho, or any custom SMTP server directly, for free — so notification, confirmation, and summary emails actually reach the inbox instead of depending on your host's default (and often blocked or spam-flagged) mail setup.

  • 8+ providers, or custom — One-click setup for major providers, or connect any SMTP server by hand.
  • Sender identity control — Force From Email/Name and return-path alignment for better inbox deliverability.
  • Delivery logging & retry — Every send is logged with its real outcome, and a failed delivery is retried automatically.
