How to add Video Poll to a Shift4Shop store

Embed Video Poll on Shift4Shop

01

Create a Video Poll app for Shift4Shop on Common Ninja

First, create a Shift4Shop Video Poll app on Common Ninja. On the apps catalog, find the Video Poll and enter the Editor.

02

Save the Video Poll app

When you're done creating the Video Poll app, click on the Save Changes button at the right top corner of the editor. If you don't have an account on Common Ninja, you'll have to register first.

03

Copy the Video Poll Embed Code

When you're ready to add the Video Poll app to your Shift4Shop store, click the Add To Website button at the top bar of the Editor. On the window that opens, click the Copy Icon to copy the app embed code. In the next steps, you will paste this code into your Shift4Shop store.

04

Paste the code to your Shift4Shop website’s HTML field.

Next, go to your Shift4Shop store editor and find the HTML field. It is most likely in the form of an HTML/Code widget or module which you can find on the Shift4Shop’s editor. Add it to your page, and paste the Video Poll Embed Code you’ve copied before to the HTML field. Save and update, and that’s it, you should have Common Ninja’s Video Poll app on your Shift4Shop store.

05

Alternative Method 1: Through the HTML option in the text’s editing area.

If you can't find the HTML/Code widget or module, there's another way to put Common Ninja’s Video Poll app on your Shift4Shop app. You can just add the code to a special HTML section in the text editor.

06

Alternative Method 2: Add it directly to your Shift4Shop store’s HTML code.

If you're having trouble finding a widget or a special part in your text editor where you can add the Embed Code, you can try a different way to add the Video Poll app to your Shift4Shop store. You can do this by putting it straight into your Shift4Shop store's HTML code.

Why Use This Widget

Use the Video Poll widget when you want to combine the emotional impact of video with the clarity of structured feedback. Showing a short clip before asking a question gives visitors more context, whether you are testing creative concepts, gathering opinions, or qualifying leads. This format is ideal for marketing teams, content creators, educators, and product teams who want richer insights than simple text polls provide. Users stay more engaged when they can watch and then respond, and you gain data grounded in what they just saw. The result is feedback that feels natural to give and more reliable to act on.
