Why people switch
More room on Free
500 submissions a month is enough for most portfolios, small businesses and side projects to never pay.
Nothing is parked
Go over the limit and every submission is still stored and searchable. Only the notification email waits for next month.
An inbox, not just an email
Mark messages New, Replied or Closed, reply from the dashboard, and get reminded about anything waiting two days.
Where Formspree is strong
- A long track record and a large library of form templates and guides.
- Team members and higher-volume plans if you outgrow the basics.
How to switch from Formspree
Change the form's action to your Formpit endpoint. Formspree field names keep working: _replyto, _subject, _gotcha, and _next for the redirect.
Before
<form action="https://formspree.io/f/xyzabcd" method="POST">After
<form action="https://formpit.com/f/YOUR_FORM_ID" method="POST">Replace YOUR_FORM_ID with the endpoint from your form's Setup tab. Then press Send test submission to see it arrive.
Questions
Do I need to change my form fields?
No. Keep your inputs as they are. Formpit reads _replyto, _subject, _gotcha and _next the same way, and every other field is stored as submitted.
Can I bring my old submissions?
Export them from Formspree as CSV and keep the file. Formpit starts storing from your first new submission, and keeps those forever.
Is Formpit really free for 500 a month?
Yes, with no card. Pro is only for higher volume and extras such as file uploads, Google Sheets, Notion, Slack, Telegram and webhooks.
