Turn any PDF into a lead-capturing link that tells you who is reading.
FlipLink hosts your PDF as a branded link with an optional form gate, so every view becomes a captured lead. See who opened it, which pages they read, and how long they spent — then sync the contacts straight to your CRM. No separate landing page required.
The PDF lead-capture tool used by marketers, B2B sales teams, agencies, consultants, and course creators
What you can gate for lead capture
Any PDF becomes a hosted, form-gated, tracked link — no landing-page builder, no developer.
Whitepapers and ebooks
Gate a whitepaper or ebook behind a name-and-email form. Every download becomes a qualified lead, and you see which sections each reader actually finished.
Reports, guides, and lead magnets
Offer a report or pricing guide as a branded link. Capture the contact before access, then watch per-page engagement to know who is sales-ready.
Proposals and sales decks
Send a tracked proposal that captures the recipient and logs every open. See which pages stakeholders revisit — and follow up at the right moment.

FlipLink lead capture vs email PDF vs landing-page + PDF
Most teams either email the PDF (and capture nothing) or build a separate landing page to gate it. Here is what changes with a single tracked link.
| Email PDF attachment | Landing page + PDF | FlipLink lead capture | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Captures a lead | No | Yes | Yes — built in |
| Needs a separate landing page | No | Yes | No — one link |
| See who opened it | No | Limited | Yes — per lead |
| Per-page reading analytics | No | No | Yes — every page |
| Real page-flip view | No | No | Yes — 3D flip |
| CRM / email sync | No | Sometimes | Yes — built in |
| Custom domain (CNAME) | No | Sometimes | Yes — unlimited CNAMEs |
| Update the file later | No | Manual replace | One-click swap |

Four FlipLink features combine to deliver PDF lead capture.
Lead Capture
A form gate before the document. Capture name, email, and custom fields, then sync to your CRM.
Analytics & Insights
Per-page reading time and link clicks tied to each lead. See exactly who read what.
Branding & Design
Custom logo, brand colors, and cover. The gated document matches your brand, not ours.
Sharing & Distribution
Direct link, email-ready snippet, embed code. One gated link per campaign or channel.
Three steps from PDF to lead engine
Upload your PDF
Drag in your whitepaper, ebook, report, or proposal — no re-design required. FlipLink processes it in seconds and keeps your layout intact.
Turn on the form gate
Enable Lead Capture and choose which fields to require. Add your logo, brand colors, and custom domain so the gate looks like your brand.
Share and capture
Send the link, embed it, or post it. Every viewer fills the form first; the lead syncs to your CRM and you watch per-page engagement roll in.
Free trial. One price, forever.
Lead Capture is included in every FlipLink plan, from the trial to the lifetime deal. The lifetime deal unlocks 100 active documents for a single one-time payment of $129.
Common questions about PDF lead capture
What is lead capture for PDFs?+
Lead capture for PDFs means gating a document behind a short form so that anyone who wants to read it first enters their name and email. With FlipLink, you upload the PDF, turn on the form gate, and share one link — every viewer becomes a captured lead, and you see which pages they read after they sign in.
Do I need a separate landing page?+
No. The form gate is built into the document link, so you do not need a landing-page builder or a developer. The single FlipLink link handles the gate, the branded reading experience, the analytics, and the CRM sync — all in one place.
Where do the captured leads go?+
Captured leads appear in your FlipLink dashboard and can sync to your CRM or email tool. Each lead is tied to engagement data — which pages they read and how long they spent — so your sales team can prioritise the most engaged contacts.
Can I choose which fields to require?+
Yes. You decide what the form asks for — name, email, company, or custom fields. Keep it short to maximise conversions, or add qualifying fields when you want higher-intent leads.
Can I host the gated document at my own domain?+
Yes — FlipLink supports unlimited custom domains. Publish the gated document at a subdomain of your own brand so the entire experience, from the form to the reader, stays on your domain rather than a FlipLink subdomain.
Does lead capture work with the page-flip reading view?+
Yes. Once a viewer completes the form, they get the full FlipLink experience — a real 3D page-flip view, search, and a table of contents — and every page they read is tracked against their captured lead record.
