How to Add a CTA Button to Webflow

Add a floating call-to-action button to your Webflow site using the custom code embed.

Webflow gives you fine-grained design control, but creating a floating element that stays visible on scroll takes manual work. The CTA Button Generator lets you design the button visually and paste the finished code into Webflow's custom code area in seconds.

Why Add a CTA Button to Webflow?

Webflow designers spend hours perfecting layouts, but a floating CTA button requires fixed positioning, z-index management, and responsive adjustments that are tedious to build natively. Injecting a pre-built snippet via custom code saves that effort while keeping your primary conversion action visible on every page, especially on long-scrolling marketing sites where the header CTA disappears.

Step-by-Step Instructions

01

Design your CTA button

Open the CTA Button Generator and customize your button using the visual editor. Pick colors, position, animation, hover effects, icon, and font. The live preview updates in real time so you see exactly what your visitors will get.

02

Export your code

When you are happy with the design, click "Get Code" to export a clean HTML + CSS snippet. The code is lightweight, has zero dependencies, and works on any website.

03

Open Webflow project settings

In the Webflow Designer, click the gear icon to open your Project Settings. Navigate to the "Custom Code" tab.

04

Paste the code in the footer section

In the "Footer Code" field (before </body> tag), paste your CTA button snippet. This ensures it loads on every page of your site.

05

Publish and verify

Click "Save Changes" in the settings, then publish your site. Visit your live URL to confirm the floating CTA button appears correctly.

Best Practices for Webflow

  • Use the site-wide custom code setting rather than per-page code to ensure consistency across your entire Webflow project.

  • Set a high z-index in the generator to avoid the button hiding behind Webflow's navbar or modal components.

  • Preview on the published site, not just the Webflow Designer — custom code doesn't render in the canvas.

  • If you use Webflow's built-in pop-ups or modals, test that they layer correctly on top of the floating button.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I add the CTA button to a single page instead of site-wide?

Yes. Instead of using Project Settings, open the specific page's settings in Webflow and paste the code in that page's custom code section.

Will it work with Webflow interactions and animations?

Yes. The CTA button uses fixed positioning and inline styles, so it won't interfere with your Webflow interactions.

Can I style the button using Webflow's visual designer instead of custom code?

The generator's output is injected as custom code, so you style it in the generator itself. However, you could create a similar button natively in Webflow using a fixed-position div — the custom code approach is just faster.

Does custom code work on Webflow's free plan?

Custom code injection in project settings requires a paid site plan. On the free plan, you can use an Embed element on individual pages as a workaround.
