Quick Start
Get a floating message or live chat widget on your website in under five minutes. No build tools or package installs required.
1. Sign up & add your domain
Head to floatmessage.com/login and create an account with email or Google. No credit card needed - the free plan gives you everything to get started.
FloatMessage will ask you for your website domain (e.g. acme.com) before you reach the dashboard. Every message, chat conversation, and analytics event you create lives inside that domain workspace. See Domain Workspaces for the full picture.
2. Create your first message
Open the editor directly: dashboard/messages?action=new. Or from the dashboard, click New Message. Pick a template or start from scratch, customize the text, colors, position, and triggers, then hit Save.
3. Copy the embed code
After saving, you will see an embed snippet. Copy it to your clipboard.
Embed snippet
Use the data-user attribute. The script will load every active floating message and the live chat widget for your account from one drop-in tag:
<script src="https://floatmessage.com/embed/floatmessage.js" data-user="YOUR_USER_ID"></script>4. Paste before the closing </body> tag
Open your website's HTML and paste the snippet just before the closing </body> tag. If you use a CMS like WordPress, Shopify, or Webflow, you can add it via the custom code / script injection section in your site settings.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>My Website</title>
</head>
<body>
<!-- your website content -->
<!-- FloatMessage embed - paste before </body> -->
<script src="https://floatmessage.com/embed/floatmessage.js" data-user="YOUR_USER_ID"></script>
</body>
</html>5. Done!
Refresh your website and you should see the floating message appear. Head back to the dashboard to track impressions, update your message, or create additional ones.
