Trail provides for you some basic HTML templates of calculators and buttons that you can insert into your business' website to engage your clients when they visit it! πŸŽ‰

We have 4 available 'widgets' (items) that you can add to your website:

  • A 'Register' button for your clients to quickly sign up with you and begin a Fact Find

  • A 'Complaints' button for your clients to lodge any feedback/ complaints to your business

  • A Loan Repayment calculator for your clients to toggle and play around with the numbers

  • A Loan Term calculator for your clients to

We'll expand on the functions and what is customizable for each of these in this article! πŸ‘


Register Button

The Register button is the first of the four available widgets you can quickly insert into your website!

  • Choose the adviser they want to work with (if you are a multi-adviser busienss)

How to implement this button:

  1. In the Register Button tab, fill out the details to format your button (size, colour and text size and font). As you edit, you will see the preview to the right of what the finished button will look like πŸ‘
    ​
    Remember to SAVE the button after you've done your edits!
    ​


    ​

  2. Next, COPY the button's html code and place this on your web page where you want the button to appear.
    ​


    ​This step can be difficult if you don't know much about code, so if you struggle to do this yourself, please get in touch with your IT team! If you do have a web designer doing your website, you can copy this HTML code and send it to them.

This button is also available to be incorporated with the Loan Repayment Calculator and Loan Term Calculator (see below!)
