Frequently Asked Questions
Is there any paid Microsoft plan that removes the 'Create your own form' footer?
No, currently even enterprise, business, or educational Microsoft 365 premium plans do not offer a native setting to remove or hide the 'Create your own form' promotional button at the bottom of Microsoft Forms.
Can I use custom CSS to hide the footer in Microsoft Forms?
Microsoft Forms does not support adding custom CSS to shared forms. If you embed the form on your own website using an iframe, you cannot inject CSS into the iframe due to cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) security restrictions enforced by modern web browsers.
Are there alternative form builders that allow white-labeling?
Yes, many third-party form builders like Google Forms, Typeform, or Jotform offer white-labeling or the ability to remove platform branding. However, these features usually require upgrading to a premium or paid subscription tier on those respective platforms.
