# Lead Capture Card

> Render a compact lead capture form section.

Canonical HTML: https://press.varavel.com/docs/shortcodes/lead-capture-card/
Markdown: https://press.varavel.com/docs/shortcodes/lead-capture-card/index.md

`lead_capture_card` renders a bordered form section for newsletters, waitlists, demo requests, and lightweight lead capture.

## When to Use

Use it when the desired conversion is an email or contact submission. If `form_action` is omitted, the shortcode uses a local Alpine confirmation instead of submitting to a backend.

## Usage

```markdown
{{/* lead_capture_card(
title="Join the waitlist",
description="Get notified when the next release ships.",
button_text="Join"
) */}}
```

## Live Example

{{ lead_capture_card(
container="md",
eyebrow="Stay updated",
title="Join the waitlist",
description="Get notified when the next release ships.",
button_text="Join",
note="No backend is required for this local preview."
) }}
