On mobile, a floating click-to-call button is one of the highest-converting elements you can add. Visitors tap the button and their phone's dialer opens with your number ready. CTA Button Generator lets you design this button and link it with a tel: URL — clean, lightweight, and works on every platform.
Studies show that phone calls convert to revenue 10-15x more often than web form submissions, because callers have already decided they want to engage. A click-to-call button is particularly effective for local service businesses — dentists, lawyers, HVAC technicians, auto repair shops — where customers need to speak with someone before committing. For example, an emergency plumber with a floating call button can capture leads that would otherwise go to a competitor while the visitor fills out a form. The button is especially valuable during business hours, but even after hours, calls can route to voicemail or an answering service. Consider pairing the tel: link with Google call tracking to measure exactly how many calls your website generates each month.

Highest-intent conversion action
Someone tapping 'Call Now' is ready to talk. A floating button keeps this option visible throughout their visit.

Over 60% of web traffic is mobile. A click-to-call button turns every mobile visit into a potential phone lead.
No form friction
Instead of filling out a contact form and waiting for a reply, visitors connect with you immediately.
Works with any phone system
The tel: protocol works with cell phones, Google Voice, VoIP systems — anything that handles phone calls.

Open the GeneratorFrequently Asked Questions
How do I link the button to my phone number?
Set the button link to tel:+YOURNUMBER (e.g., tel:+14155551234). The + and country code ensure it works for international visitors too.
Does it work on desktop?
On desktop, clicking a tel: link opens the system phone app (Skype, FaceTime, etc.) or prompts the user to choose an app. On mobile, it opens the dialer directly.
Can I track how many calls come from the button?
Yes. Use a call tracking number from a service like CallRail, Google Ads call tracking, or WhatConverts. Set the tracking number as your tel: link and you'll see exactly how many calls your floating button generates.
Should I hide the button on desktop since calling from a computer is less common?
It's a valid approach. You can add a CSS media query to the exported code to hide the button on screens wider than 768px. However, many desktop users do have apps like FaceTime or Skype set up, so test before hiding it entirely.
Can I show my phone number on the button text itself?
Yes. Instead of generic text like 'Call Now', you can set the button text to your actual number, e.g., '(415) 555-1234'. This builds trust because visitors see the number before they tap.
