Hyperlink Example

Add the following hyperlink to your HTML code:

• <a id=" TheLink" href="https://secure.consumerratequotes.com/ConsumerV2?id=#####" >Click Here to get a quote!</a>

If you have multiple lines of business and wish to have a separate link for each, you can do that by adding the following options after your Agency ID: "&lob=auto" for Personal Auto. "&lob=home" for Homeowners. "&lob=auto+home" for both Personal Auto and Homeowners. See below for other LOB options.

Example:

<a id=" TheLink" href="https://secure.consumerratequotes.com/ConsumerV2?id=#####&lob=auto" >Click Here to get an Auto quote!</a>

1. You should set Logo Position to Display Logo at Top or Display Logo on Left in ConsumerRateQuotes Setup.
2. You need to upload a logo that works with your site.

Consumer Rate Quotes can be added to your site using an iframe in two ways:

Option 1 – Use an iframe with fixed dimensions

Use this option when you want to fit Consumer Rate Quotes in a predefined space within your site.

Add the following iFrame to your HTML code:

<iframe id="crqFrame" name="crqFrame" style="height: 600px; width: 1000px; border: 1px solid black;" src="https://secure.consumerratequotes.com/ConsumerV2?id=#####"></iframe>

Set the height and width to what works best for the agency site. Note, depending on the height and width values used, the iframe may show a scrollbar if the Consumer Rate Quotes page is larger than the iframe. Also, using a fixed width will prevent Consumer Rate Quotes from being responsive to different devices and screen sizes.

The frame border is optional. If you do not wish to have a frame change, the setting to zero.

Option 2 – Use an iframe that automatically resizes

Use this option for a more seamless and responsive experience. When the html content of a Consumer Rate Quotes page changes, it automatically posts a message to the hosting page indicating its new height. The hosting page must add a handler for the message event and resize the iframe based on the new height. The exact methodology used to handle the event will vary based on the framework used to develop your site. Here is an example for a simple html site:

<script type="text/javascript">

function resizeCrqFrame(event) {

let crqFrame = document.getElementById('crqFrame');

if (crqFrame.src.indexOf(event.origin) !== -1 && event.data.topic === 'crqResize') {

crqFrame.style.height = event.data.height + 'px';

}

}

if (window.addEventListener) {

window.addEventListener('message', resizeCrqFrame, false);

} else if (window.attachEvent) {

window.attachEvent('onmessage', resizeCrqFrame);

}

</script>

<iframe id="crqFrame" name="crqFrame" src="https://secure.consumerratequotes.com/ConsumerV2?id=#####" scrolling="no" style="width: 100%; border: none; overflow: hidden;"> </iframe>

No height is specified on the iframe. When a crqResize message is received, the height of the iframe is adjusted based on the value of event.data.height. If you have multiple lines of business and wish to have a separate link for each, you can do that by adding the following options after your Agency ID: "&lob=auto" for Personal Auto. "&lob=home" for Homeowners. "&lob=auto+home" for both Personal Auto and Homeowners. See below for other LOB options.

Example:

• https://secure.consumerratequotes.com/ConsumerV2?id=#####&lob=auto

You should set Logo Position to Display in iFrame (No Logo) in ConsumerRateQuotes Setup.

The Agency URL setting that you enter in ConsumerRateQuotes Setup will determine where ConsumerRateQuotes returns to after the consumers get a rate.
