}React + Consultation Request
React ships nothing for form delivery — it's a view layer. The historical options are an Express server you stand up just for POST /api/contact, a Vercel serverless function with SMTP wiring, or a third-party library like Formik that still leaves the backend problem unsolved. The consultation request on this page uses useState for submit state and a plain fetch POST to splitforms — no form library, no context provider, no wrapper component. It works in Create React App, Vite, Remix, and every React bundler because it's just standard FormData and the Fetch API.

Consultation Request fields
The posted payload contains full name, email, phone, topic, what do you need help with?. Required fields are full name, email, phone, topic and what do you need help with?. Rename, remove, or add your own — splitforms accepts any name you POST.

React production notes
React itself ships nothing for form submission — it's a view layer. The historical baseline is one of: an Express/Hono/Fastify server you stand up just for POST /api/contact, a Function-as-a-Service (Vercel/Netlify/Cloudflare) that ends up needing the same SMTP wiring, or a third-party form library (React Hook Form, Formik) that handles validation but still leaves you to operate the backend. Vite, CRA, and Remix all default to assuming you have somewhere to POST — they just don't tell you where. Splitforms is the where: a single fetch call, no library install, no useEffect gymnastics, no Express boilerplate.

Setup
Three actions stand between you and your first consultation request submission — no backend, no database, no CAPTCHA library.
Sign in at splitforms.com — your access key is created instantly. No credit card, no setup wizard, no SDK to install.
Drop the form snippet into a React page, component, or layout. Replace YOUR_ACCESS_KEY with the key from your dashboard. The form action is a hard-coded URL — no env vars or build-time wiring needed.
Dashboard updates live on Free. Free includes owner email delivery; paid plans add signed webhooks, CSV export, Slack/Discord forwarding, and BCC to your team.
How SplitForms works
splitforms receives the submission, filters spam, saves it to your dashboard and emails you — then, on paid plans, sends it on to your webhooks and integrations. No backend infrastructure to build.

Point your form to your unique SplitForms endpoint. That's it.

We instantly capture and organize every submission in your inbox.

Send data to email, spreadsheets, CRMs, webhooks, and 7,000+ apps.

No credit card required. Set up in under 60 seconds.
Connect & automate
On paid plans, submissions can also go to Slack, Discord, Google Sheets, Notion, Airtable, Zapier or any signed webhook — and splitforms works on the platforms you build on, from WordPress and Shopify to Next.js. With Stripe connected, your forms can take payments too.

Common questions
Yes. The form is plain HTML with a single POST endpoint, so it runs on any React site without server-side code, plugins, or SDKs. Drop the snippet into a React page or component and submissions land in your splitforms dashboard.
Free for 500 submissions — no credit card, no time limit. Pro is $5/mo for 5,000 submissions a month, and Annual is $49/year for 15,000 submissions a month. The same pricing applies regardless of which framework hosts the form.
Yes. The template ships with sensible defaults (full name, email, phone, topic…) — add, remove, or rename any of them. Splitforms accepts whatever fields you POST.
A hidden honeypot field catches dumb bots, and a rule-based filter scores the rest; anything that looks like spam goes to a separate Spam tab instead of your inbox. No CAPTCHA, no friction for human users — and it works the same on React as on any other framework.
Yes. Webhooks are available on paid plans, with auto-formatted payloads for Slack, Discord, and WhatsApp (via CallMeBot). Or send raw signed JSON to any URL — Zapier, n8n, your own server. Configure in the splitforms dashboard.
Yes — the form posts directly to splitforms from the browser, so no server is involved. Works on Vercel, Netlify, GitHub Pages, Cloudflare Pages, S3, or any plain Apache host.
