To celebrate the launch of Unbounce Convertables, we’re sharing 3 easy scripts to help you get the most out of your new overlays.
Our team at ConversionLab was one of the first to gain access to the Convertables beta. Over the last three months, we’ve launched numerous overlays across a number of different websites, and even deployed a high-converting overlay on our own site.
We’ve been seeing a ton of conversions so far, but in the spirit of pushing the envelope, we’ve discovered a few small tweaks that helped push our conversion rates even higher.
1. Add Hint Text to Your Form
2. Add a Custom Icon to Your Form
3. Add Unique On-Click Form Styling

Click the Stylesheet tab at the bottom left of the page builder- Paste this CSS script
Match the field name according to your form field name
(Optional) Specify a different icon for “focus” state, or keep the same icon
Tip #3 - Add Unique On-Click Form Styling
Add a border to your form field with your desired width. Use the same color as your form field if you want it to be “invisible”
