WizeForm Quick Start: From Sign-Up to Live Form in 5 Minutes

Go to wizeform.com and click 'Start free'. Enter your email address, create a password, and you land directly on your WizeForm dashboard. The process takes about 30 seconds and does not require a credit card. Your account is active immediately — there's no verification hold before you can start receiving submissions.

Your WizeForm access key is generated automatically and shown prominently on the dashboard home screen. It starts with wf_ followed by a random unique string. This key is the only credential your form needs. Store it securely — treat it like an API key, not a password. It can only be used to write submissions to your account, not to read your data.

The notification email for your account defaults to the address you registered with. You can change this in dashboard settings if you want submissions delivered to a different address — a shared team inbox, a client's email, or a project-specific address.

Open the HTML file that contains your form. Find the opening form tag and make two changes: set the action attribute to https://wizeform.com/api/submit and set the method attribute to POST. If your form already has a method attribute, update it. If it doesn't, add method="POST".

Inside the form, add a hidden input anywhere before the closing form tag: <input type="hidden" name="access_key" value="YOUR_WF_KEY" />. Replace YOUR_WF_KEY with the key from your WizeForm dashboard. This is the entire backend integration. WizeForm identifies your account by this key and routes submissions accordingly.

Add any other fields your form needs — name, email, company, message, phone, budget. WizeForm accepts any field name and passes all submitted values through to your dashboard and notifications. There's no schema to define and no configuration to update when you add new fields.

Open your form in a browser and submit a test message. Within a few seconds, navigate to your WizeForm dashboard. The submission should appear in the list with an AI score badge (Hot, Warm, or Cold) and a short AI-generated summary. Check your email inbox — a notification should arrive with the score in the subject line and the summary as preview text.

If the submission doesn't appear, check two things: that your access key is correctly copied with no extra spaces, and that your form tag includes method="POST". These are the two most common causes of a first-integration issue. The WizeForm dashboard also shows rejected requests in a separate log, which can help diagnose what went wrong.

Once your first test submission comes through correctly, your integration is complete. WizeForm's spam protection, AI scoring, and email notifications are all active from this point. Every real submission from here forward will be scored, stored, and delivered to your inbox with context about who submitted and how much attention the lead deserves.
