Quote widget

An embeddable component that lets visitors get a vehicle shipping price on a partner's own page, without leaving the site.

Also called: Shipping quote widget, Embedded quote calculator

A quote widget is a small piece of code a website adds to its pages so visitors can get a shipping price on the spot. Instead of linking out to a transport company or collecting a lead for a callback, the page shows the price where the shopper is already looking at the car.

AutoTransportVehicle.com's widget comes in several formats to fit different layouts. A quote form collects ZIP codes and vehicle details. A price strip shows a shipping price inline on a listing. A button opens the quote on click, and a floating badge stays visible as the shopper scrolls. For custom builds, a JSON quote API returns prices to your own interface, and a tracked quote link works in emails and messages.

The widget can prefill fields from the host page, including origin ZIP, year, make and model, VIN, vehicle type, open or enclosed and ship date. On a vehicle detail page, that often leaves the shopper to add only a destination ZIP before seeing a live, bookable price.

Every quote and booking made through the widget is attributed to the partner account that hosts it, so the dealer, auction or marketplace can see what its pages generate. Shipments are arranged by AutoTransportVehicle.com's FMCSA-licensed fulfillment partner. Setup details are on the developers page.
