I would like the email field to be larger, is that possible?

improve readability and user experience

Key points • Yes, it is entirely possible to enlarge the email field • The level of customization depends on the form type • Enlargement can affect the width, height, text size, or spacing

Enlarging the email field on a form is a common request for hotel websites, as a wider or taller field immediately improves user experience and the perceived quality of the site. Whether the form is native, integrated via an email marketing tool, or connected to an automation system, it's always possible to adjust the size of the email field.

💡 Tip: A field that is easy to fill out naturally increases the conversion rate, especially on mobile.

Can the email field be enlarged? Yes, depending on the form type.

1. If the form is native

This is the easiest solution to customize. Your team can adjust: • the field width (full screen, fixed width, responsive) • the field height (largest input area) • the text or placeholder size • the margins and spacing around the field • the border style or rounding

Everything can be adapted to match your brand guidelines.

💡 Tip: A field that spans the entire width on mobile greatly improves the user experience.

2. If the form uses an embed (emailing tool)

Depending on the tool, you can: • enlarge the field directly in the style options • use a simplified embed to apply your own styles • add custom CSS to adjust width and height • surround the embed with a wider container for smoother rendering

Even though some embeds have limitations, there is always a solution to improve the field size.

3. If the form is processed through external automation (API, Make, Zapier)

In this case, the form visible on your site is generally visually native, which means that: • you can freely modify the field's style • automations have no impact on its size • the width, height, and text can be adjusted without constraint

Automation only handles the sending of data, not the appearance of the field.

4. If the form is customized

Your team can work on: • the exact size of the field in pixels or percentages • responsive formatting • visual effects on hover or typing • integration into a larger website layout

This approach offers the greatest design freedom.

Best practices for a more user-friendly email field

  • Use a generous width, especially in wide sections. • Favor a field height slightly greater than the standard value. • Maintain sufficient contrast for accessibility. • Keep the edges slightly rounded for a more modern look. • Test on mobile and tablet to adjust spacing.

💡 Tip: A clear placeholder like “Your email address” increases clarity and send rate.

Conclusion

Yes, you can easily enlarge the email field in your form. Whether your form is native, integrated via an external tool, or connected to an automation, the formatting remains fully customizable. A simple change to the width, height, or font can provide a significantly more pleasant user experience on your hotel website.
