Set Up iubenda Compliance Solutions in Just a Few Clicks with 1-Click Embedding

Making your website compliant with privacy and cookie laws has never been easier. With iubenda’s 1-Click Embedding feature, you can quickly integrate essential compliance documents (Privacy and Cookie Policy and Terms and Conditions) or the cookie consent banner directly into your website, without needing to edit any code.

This streamlined setup is already available for platforms like WordPress and Shopify, and we’re working to bring the same ease of use to more content management systems (CMS) and website builders in the future.

Forget about copying and pasting scripts—just follow a few simple steps, and your site will be fully equipped with the tools it needs to meet global legal requirements.

Why Use 1-Click Embedding Feature?


  • Quick Setup: No need to copy/paste scripts. Everything is done in a few clicks.
  • No Technical Skills Required: You don’t need to edit your code or dig into your theme.
  • Official Tools: Both the WordPress plugin and the Shopify app are developed and maintained by iubenda.
  • Future-Proof: We’re working to expand support to even more CMS platforms.

How the 1-Click Embedding Feature Works

Here’s how you can easily embed iubenda’s compliance solutions to your WordPress site using the 1-Click Embedding feature:

Configuration Checklist

As you start setting up iubenda products, you’ll go through a simple checklist. When you’re ready to embed your documents like your Privacy and Cookie Policy, Terms and Conditions, or the Privacy Controls and Cookie Solution (known as the Cookie Banner), you’ll be prompted to select the 1-Click Embed option. This is the first step in making the integration easier.

Embedding Configured Products

If you’ve already set up some of your iubenda products, like the Privacy and Cookie Policy, Terms and Conditions, or Privacy Controls and Cookie Solution, and you’re in the section to embed them, you’ll find the 1-Click Embed option in the embed section of each product.

In both cases, when you click Go to simplified embedding →, a pop-up window will open, guiding you through the process to input your site details and complete the setup. Here is how to proceed:

Now, simply select your platform from the list below, and you’ll be directed to a dedicated section that provides step-by-step instructions on how to integrate the iubenda iubenda solutions with your platform.

1-Click Embedding for WordPress

1. Confirm Your WordPress Admin URL

You’ll first need to confirm your WordPress admin URL. The input field will be pre-filled with your site’s admin URL (e.g., http://yoursite.com/wp-admin). Simply click Confirm and Proceed to move forward.

What if the URL is wrong?

If the URL doesn’t match your WordPress admin domain, you’ll see an error message that says: “This admin URL has not been found.

You can easily correct it by entering the correct URL manually.

2. Log Into WordPress

Once your admin URL is confirmed, you’ll be taken to the WordPress login page. Here, just enter your WordPress credentials (username and password) to log in.

3. Authorize iubenda to Connect

After logging in, you’ll be asked to authorize iubenda to connect to your WordPress site. You’ll see a prompt asking for your approval. “An application would like to connect to your account. Do you approve?

Click Yes, I approve this connection to give iubenda the permissions it needs.

1-Click Embed option

4. Installation in Progress

Once you’ve authorized the connection, the system will automatically install the iubenda plugin and embed the necessary compliance solutions. During this process, you’ll see a loading screen that says:

“Simplified embedding for WordPress. Installing your products… This might take up to a couple of minutes.”

5. Completion and Confirmation

After the installation and embedding are completed, you’ll see a success message letting you know everything worked correctly. At this point, we’ll also run a scan to verify that everything is set up properly on your site.

“Congratulations, the installation was successful!”

1-Click Embed option

You can then close the pop-up window and enjoy the benefits of iubenda’s compliance solutions fully integrated into your WordPress site.

💡 What Happens If Something Goes Wrong?

In the rare case that an error occurs during the embedding process, don’t worry! You’ll see an error message with an option to Try again.

1-Click Embed option

Click Try again, and the process will restart. The system will attempt to install and embed everything once more.

⚠️ The 1-Click Embedding feature works with most WordPress themes, but some may not fully support automatic document integration.

If you see the Privacy Controls and Cookie Solution (Cookie Banner) successfully integrated, but your Privacy and Cookie Policy or Terms and Conditions are missing, your theme may have limitations.

In this case, you’ll need to manually integrate the documents by copying and pasting the embed code from your iubenda Dashboard.

You’re all set! With just a few clicks, your compliance solutions are active on your WordPress site, helping you stay aligned with privacy and cookie laws.

1-Click Embedding for Shopify

You can use 1-Click Embedding on Shopify to set up your iubenda compliance solutions just as quickly and easily as on other supported platforms.

⚠️ Theme Limitations

The 1-Click Embedding feature works with most Shopify themes, but in rare cases a theme may not fully support automatic integration for all products.
