Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How can I track clicks on these links?
Use Trigger Links to track and automate actions based on clicks.
Q: What happens if the user's device doesn't support the click-to link?
If a device doesn’t support the protocol (like sms:
on desktop), nothing will happen when clicked. It’s recommended to test your links on different devices and consider including fallback contact information.
Q: Can I add multiple actions in one link (like call and text)?
No. Each link can only perform one action at a time, either a call, text, or email. To offer multiple options, use separate links or buttons for each action.

Yes. In the Funnel or Website Builder, you can hyperlink images or icons using the same formats. This is useful for visual CTAs like phone or message icons.
