Both ways, in 80 seconds
Video walkthrough — coming this week
There are two ways to build a poll: right inside the Gmail compose window, woven into the email you're already writing — or in the dashboard's full-size editor, then pasted wherever you like: Gmail, your own email templates, or campaigns in Mailchimp, MailerLite, Outlook and more. Same poll, same one-click voting, either way.

The two ways
Start an email, tap the Polls for Gmail icon, and build the poll without leaving the message. It drops straight into your draft — insert, send, done. Recipients are captured automatically for vote reminders. Available on every plan.
A full-size editor at pollsforgmail.com: every option one click away, all seven poll types, up to five questions, and start from any previous poll as a template. Share the vote link, or click Copy for Gmail and paste the poll into any email — it arrives fully votable and looks exactly the same.
Beyond Gmail
Poll buttons are plain HTML links, so a pasted poll survives any campaign editor and renders in any email client. Votes stream into your dashboard no matter where the email came from.
FAQ
Yes. Create the poll in your dashboard, click Copy for Gmail, and paste it into your campaign or template. The vote buttons are plain HTML links, so they survive every major campaign tool — and every vote lands in your live dashboard.
The compose window is the in-your-workflow route — build the poll inside the message you're writing. The dashboard is the full-size editor: smoother building, templates from previous polls, then share the link or paste the poll anywhere. The polls themselves are identical.
Yes — same card, pixel for pixel, same one-click voting. One difference: the add-on adds the recipient-capture BCC for vote reminders automatically; for pasted polls you add the poll's BCC address yourself if you want reminders.
Compose-window creation is on every plan, free included. Dashboard creation — with templates and Copy for Gmail — is part of Pro ($120/year).
No. Voting is one click from any email client — Gmail, Outlook, Apple Mail, or a newsletter opened anywhere. Voters never need an account.
