Questions
How do we embed the game?
With one iframe tag in an HTML block — it works in every common CMS and in app web views. Licensed papers get a personal code with their partner ID; we manage name, colour and theme centrally, so you never change the code.
How does the licence work?
It covers your own domains and apps, and the game can only be shown there. After the term it keeps working for 14 days; then the free edition with our branding appears, so your page never breaks.
Do readers need to log in?
No. Readers start playing straight away. Streaks and stats are stored in their browser.
Is it British or American English?
Both. Every word is spelled the same on both sides of the Atlantic, so the puzzle works for US, UK, Irish, Canadian, Australian and Indian readers.
How do we start?
Click Start free, enter your site and colour, and choose card or invoice. Your embed codes appear right away. Cancel before day 30 and you pay nothing.
Can we sell ads around the game?
Yes. The game has a sponsor line on the result card and sponsored word packs you can resell.
Is there a Spanish version?
Yes: Gancho, with its own hand-curated Spanish bank for Spain and Latin America — and Ordkroken in Swedish.
