How to Add Financing to Your Website
Inviting customers to explore financing when they visit you online can drive more promising prospects into your sales process. Acorn Finance offers two options for showcasing financing on your website – adding a web banner or adding a financing landing page.
Top Reasons to Add Financing
- Attract customers
- Contractors offering financing are more appealing to customers, and a website banner or financing page is an effective tool to showcase your full range of services.
- Add credibility to your business
- Contractors have shared that providing financing boosts their business’s legitimacy.
- Generate leads
- Customers can apply for a loan right from your website banner or page, and you receive notifications of their status so you can follow up on the lead.
How to Add an Acorn Finance Website Banner
You can easily market financing on your website with a banner by following the instructions detailed here.
First, you need to login to the Acorn Finance portal and copy the embed code for the banner. Then, follow the steps for adding a banner to your website builder. We’ve outlined how to do this at the most popular website builders below.
GoDaddy
GoDaddy’s Website Builder lets you add your own code (HTML, CSS and JavaScript) to your website. This allows you to extend the capabilities of your site with such things as custom forms, maps and special-function buttons — to name only a few options.
See GoDaddy’s article “Add HTML or custom code to my site” at:

Insert our banner code in the Custom Code section, leave Section Title and Pixels blank.
Squarespace
Use Code Blocks to add custom code to a page, blog post, sidebar, footer, or other content area. Code Blocks are good options if you want to embed third-party widgets or customize pages beyond what’s possible with other blocks. You can also use Code Blocks to render HTML and Markdown or display code snippets.
On all plans, Code Blocks support plain text, HTML, Markdown, and CSS code surrounded by <style></style> tags.
