# Form element
Add custom form elements to your funnel. Use these elements to build an email list, qualify leads, collect user information, build checklists, and more.
## **Choosing the form element type**
There are seven **Input type** options of form elements to choose from. Each one will define what kind of information you want to collect in the field.
## Input type
### Checkbox
Use a **checkbox** to collect data or confirm statements. You can also add a red asterisk that indicates filling the checkbox is a requirement.
### **Input**
The **Input** form element will allow you to collect customer's personal information such as full name, phone number and shipping information.
Use **Input** for a fixed-width (and responsive) field best suited for short text answers.
### **Textarea**
The **Textarea** option allows adding a frame that supports text overflow.
### **Radio**
The **Radio** input type allows you to add one or more circles and create a list of options to choose from.
If you want to have multiple options:
1. Click the Radio form element in your canvas once to select it.
2. In the top right corner of the blue box that surrounds your element, click Clone FormElement.
3. A new option for your form element will appear.
4. Click on the text to modify it.
### **Number**
When using the **Number** input type, users can enter a number or use the arrows to increase/decrease the value in the field.
