After you have created your form, you will be able to customize it by selecting different fields on the left side of your screen. Some options are “read only” such as Heading, Spacer and Paragraphs. These are great fields to use when adding a title or description to your form. Fields such as Text Box, Text Area and Dropdown allow different ways to gather information.

Payments
