This guide will teach you how to add a Waitlist to your Typedream website. We've made it easy for you to customize a Waitlist Form and copy-paste it into your Typedream website builder, with no code required.

What is Typedream?

Typedream is a website building platform that allows you to create and host websites with a focus on simplicity and speed. When it comes to setting up a pre-launch waitlist, Typedream provides a straightforward solution. By combining Typedream and Waitlist, it's easy to make a landing page with a waiting list.

Combining Typedream and Waitlist

Typedream lets you quickly design a beautiful landing page for your upcoming website or product, and Waitlist gives you an embeddable waiting list form that you can customize to match your brand. Typedream's minimalistic approach makes it user-friendly and faster than many other website builders. While it may not have the extensive feature set of larger competitors like Wix or Webflow, Typedream is ideal for those who want a quick and efficient way to create a pre-launch waitlist page without the complexities of more advanced website development tools.

Getting Set up with Typedream for your Waitlist

To set up a pre-launch waitlist on Typedream, the first question to tackle is what page you want to host your Waitlist form (also known as a Waitlist Widget) on. Conventionally that's your landing page, but sometimes you may want to put the waitlist on a different page. For example, if your landing page is already promoting a well-known product, you may want to launch your new product on a second page. Once you've made a page in Typedream that you want to host yoru Waitlist on, then you can get started with the integration.

Integration Guide

  1. Navigate to your Waitlist Dashboard and click on the Waitlist you want to integrate.

  2. Go to the "Settings" tab. Make sure that the "Waitlist URL" field matches the Typedream page that you want to host the Waitlist Widget.

  3. Go into the Widget Builder, and click the "Get Embed Code" button. Waitlist dashboard: widget builder interface
