How it works

"HTML Forms are one of the main points of interaction between a user and a web site or application. They allow users to send data to the web site. Most of the time that data is sent to the web server, but the web page can also intercept it to use it on its own."

– Mozilla Developer Network

Modern tools let us create and run websites more easily than ever. You can build and serve static websites entirely on free services like GitHub, GitLab, Netlify, Cloudflare Pages or Vercel to name a few.

But more often than not, HTML forms need a server side. That means writing a backend application and finding somewhere to run it. All this is quite a pain to do and can be costly, especially when you only want a contact form.

That's where Forwarder.cc will try to help you. It will act as the missing backend for your beautiful static website without hassle. All you have to do is write your HTML form in your favorite client-side language and point it to us. We'll handle your visitors' responses and send you the results!

Each time one of your visitors fills in a form, we charge you one credit. Once you confirm your email address, we give you 50 of them, so you can enjoy and play with our service. No monthly fees, no hidden credit card charges. But what happens if you run out of credits? We keep your messages and inform you that you have some of them waiting for you. They are unlocked as soon as you buy enough new credits. More on that in How credits work.

Sounds easy? That's right! Now let's try to create your first form together!
