Subscription forms

Subscription forms allow users to sign up to receive opt-in communication via email or SMS.

Best practices

  • Use copy to clearly communicate the value of subscribing prior to presenting the subscription field.
  • Wherever possible, limit the number of fields to email only.
  • If applicable, allow users to select the type of content they’d like to receive.
  • Provide information on how to unsubscribe with each subscription form. This could include a link to more information and/or an unsubscribe form.
