What is a hidden field?
A smart solution that helps you send hidden information, bringing personalization to your campaigns.
Use your existing information system or memorized information to automatically customize the content to suit each respondent.
What types of information can be passed with Hidden Fields?
- Respondent's name: you can create a greeting for each individual responder.
- Respondent email: so you can identify who is filling out your form
- Traffic source: the platform from which the person received your form (Facebook, website, etc.)
- Clothing measurements: if you sell clothes you can also see the measurements of the respondent (all that information will be saved by us for your future reuse)
Hidden Field's Application?
It is used in a multitude of different situations and in different campaigns.
An example is when you want to bring personalization into your form, for someone who has already filled out your form and you already have the basic information about them, Hidden Fields can help you create a different form for different audiences, giving the impression of closeness and friendliness by mentioning their names in the form.
