How to add Scratch Card to a Datalife Engine website

Embed Scratch Card on Datalife Engine

01

Create a Scratch Card plugin for Datalife Engine on Common Ninja

First, create a Datalife Engine Scratch Card plugin on Common Ninja. On the plugins catalog, find the Scratch Card and enter the Editor.

02

Save the Scratch Card plugin

When you're done creating the Scratch Card plugin, 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 Scratch Card Embed Code

When you're ready to add the Scratch Card plugin to your Datalife Engine website, 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 plugin embed code. In the next steps, you will paste this code into your Datalife Engine website.

04

Paste the code to your Datalife Engine website’s HTML field.

Next, go to your Datalife Engine website 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 Datalife Engine’s editor. Add it to your page, and paste the Scratch Card Embed Code you’ve copied before to the HTML field. Save and update, and that’s it, you should have Common Ninja’s Scratch Card plugin on your Datalife Engine website.

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 Scratch Card plugin on your Datalife Engine plugin. You can just add the code to a special HTML section in the text editor.

06

Alternative Method 2: Add it directly to your Datalife Engine website’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 Scratch Card plugin to your Datalife Engine website. You can do this by putting it straight into your Datalife Engine website's HTML code.

Why Use This Widget

Use the Scratch Card widget when you want to turn offers or rewards into a small moment of surprise that feels personal. Visitors virtually scratch the card to reveal discounts, gifts, or messages, which makes the act of discovering a reward more memorable than simply reading a line of text. This is useful for campaigns, loyalty programs, holiday promotions, and interactive contests. By tying the reveal to email capture or specific actions, you can use the scratch card as both an engagement mechanic and a lead generator. Done well, it can raise participation and make your brand feel more playful and approachable.
