Let visitors work something out for themselves (a loan repayment, a return on investment, a savings projection) right on your page.
Calculators are available on the Business plan.
How calculators work in Limecube#
Limecube gives you a library of ready-made calculators. You choose one, then set your own labels, starting values and rates. The calculations are already built and tested, so you don't write any formulas.
Adding a calculator#
- 1In the editor, open Add Elements and choose Calculators from the Basic group.
- 2Drop it onto your page. The panel opens on Choose your calculator.
- 3Click the one you want, then fill in its fields.
We offer a range of calculators, and the picker lists every one available to your site. Use Choose a different calculator to switch. If you see 'No calculators are available yet, please contact support.', get in touch and we'll enable them for your site.
Filling in the fields#
Each calculator has its own fields, each with a ? explaining it. The same data rules apply as for charts:
- Plain numbers only, with no currency symbols or thousands separators
- Full stops for decimals (
12.5) - Comma-separated lists with no spaces (
10,20,30,40) - Percentages as plain numbers:
10, not10%
Tips#
- Always test it on the live page with a few realistic figures before you publish.
- The formulas are fixed. You control the inputs, labels and rates, not the underlying maths. If you need a calculation we don't offer, get in touch, or embed your own with the Integrations element's Custom Code option.
- Add a disclaimer. Calculators give estimates. A short line such as 'Figures are estimates only and not financial advice' underneath is good practice, and essential for anything financial.
- Calculators inherit your site's colours and adapt to phones automatically.
