Testimonials
Our users love SG Widget, and they've shared their experiences on Capterra. See what they have to say!
SGWidget has really solved a crucial problem for us. We were looking for the ability to leverage many custom form fields that directly feed and update subscriber profiles in SendGrid and it was able to help us accomplish just that. Not to mention the forms are easily customizable via HTML & CSS which makes stylizing super simple. The tool is comprehensive and checks all the boxes from sign-up to double confirmation to feeding the data quickly into SendGrid. Hats off to the creators of SGWidget!
Finally got the perfect solution to integrate SendGrid on our Wordpress. Fast and seamless integration, and the best customer support you can think of.
Everything about the SG Widget is is great! You can implement it in any page and style accordingly. It’s really the simplest plugin for SendGrid and their support is top notch.
SG Widget allowed me to place a Sendgrid Widget on my website quickly with no development and the support is great.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions
1. Is this part of SendGrid?
+No. We are a SendGrid Partner and members of the SendGrid Accelerate Program but are an external company who built a product that interfaces with their API. We collaborated with SendGrid and they featured the widget on their official blog.
2. Can I create multiple widgets?
+Yes. You can create multiple widgets for one website or multiple widgets for many websites.
3. Can I style it?
+Of course. SG Widget comes with default styles, which look great but you can also put your own CSS into your websites .CSS file to match the design of your website.
4. Will it hurt my page speed?
+SG Widget only uses a single external JavaScript file loaded with the defer attribute so there will be an additional HTTP request. If you can tolerate that, you will be fine. We are aware of the importance of minimizing requests so we inlined all the CSS to make it as fast as possible.
5. How do I create an account?
+Click here
6. Does SG Widget sell subscriber data?
+No. We do not store the data and we do not sell it. Subscriber data is of no value to us as we have no context of why is was obtained. Our business model is to provide website owners simple functionality to collect emails for their own lists.
7.What support is available?
+Lifetime support via email, especially during the setup phase.
8. Does it work on Wordpress?
+Yes. By adding a shortcode, the widget can be dropped into any page on wordpress. Read our guide.
9. Can I customise the email template?
+Yes. We integrate with Sendgrid's Transactional Templates allowing you to design whatever email template you desire.
10. What permissions does my SendGrid API Key need?
+There’s no need to expose your entire SendGrid account. Just create a Restricted Access API Key that only has marketing campaigns permissions. More information can be found in our docs.

+No. We do not nor will we ever store subscriber data.

What Is SG Widget?
SG Widget is a third-party tool designed to work seamlessly with the SendGrid API. It enables you to easily add a signup form to your website with just a simple HTML snippet, allowing customers to input their email addresses.
These emails are automatically added to the SendGrid list you specify in the SG Widget backend, giving you full control over how you use them moving forward. SG Widget serves as an efficient email collection form—nothing more, nothing less.
You could think of it as a Wordpress plugin, but one that works on any website regardless of the CMS. As long as the front end is HTML, then SG Widget can be dropped in. It is a global solution to a common problem.
Privacy And Security
SG Widget does not store personal data for subscribers that enter their email address.
If Single Opt In is enabled, we send the email address directly through to SendGrid without storing it on our servers or in our database.
If Double Opt In is enabled, we temporarily store the email address of the subscriber in our system until they click the link in their email. We then forward it to Sendgrid and delete the data from our database. If they have not clicked the link within 1 hour, the invite will expire and we delete the data from our database.
Once the data is with Sendgrid, it becomes the responsibility of Sendgrid to ensure this data is stored and accessed in a controlled way. If customers request a copy of their personal information, this request should be forwarded to SendGrid.
Who are the team behind SG Widget?
SG Widget was created by the small team of engineers at Leader Internet, an official Sendgrid Partner based in Ireland and members of the Sendgrid Accelerte Program. We are a close-knit group of developers that had a bottleneck collecting emails on our websites so we built it to solve our own problem and after talking to some friends in the industry, realised that others had the same issue.
SendGrid Widget Background
SendGrid is a wonderful email delivery service but they have no subscription widget for website owners to collect email addresses.
This feature was previously available in their Legacy Newsletter Service but that has been retired since September 2017 in favour of the Marketing Campaigns product. The natural assumption is that a signup widget would be provided in the new service but unfortunately, that is not the case.
This leaves website owners with no way to collect email addresses on their website and for that reason, Leader Internet decided to the build SG Widget.
GDPR
We are fully GDPR compliant. We collect and store information for the people that register an SG Widget account. This is required to allow you to log in to the backend and access your widgets. The personal information we store is:
- Email address
- Name
If you are an SG Widget customer, you can request a copy of your personal information by submitting a support request within your account backend.
When an account is closed all personal information information is deleted.
