ChargeForms

ChargeForms is a fast, free drag-and-drop form builder for WordPress — contact forms, surveys, multi-step forms, and payment forms, without page reloads or a bloated front-end bundle slowing your site down.

Every feature in this plugin — conditional logic, payments, SMTP email delivery, CSV import, every field type — is included free, with no paid license required and no feature locked behind a paywall. com | Documentation

Drag-and-Drop Form Builder

• 30+ field types out of the box — text, address, ratings, file upload, payment fields, and more

• Conditional logic with nested AND/OR/NOT groups — show or hide fields based on other answers

• Multi-step forms with a progress bar and per-step validation

• All bundled form templates, Save & Resume, and CSV entry import

• Payment Item, Custom Amount, Payment Method, and Payment Summary fields

• No platform fee on top of your payment processor’s own rate

Entry Management

Email Delivery (Native SMTP)

• Connect Gmail, Microsoft 365, Amazon SES, SendGrid, Mailgun, Brevo, Postmark, Zoho, or any custom SMTP server
