To customize your Call to Action button's colors, enter a hex color in the Text Color and Background Color fields, or click the color wheel to select a preset color. With custom branding, the default button color matches your brand colors, so you don't have to change colors for each new button.

Custom branding is available with the Custom branding & domains add-on for all plans except for the Free plan. Please check our pricing page for more information.

You will see a preview of your button at the top of the Call to Action creation window. The example below shows how to create a button linking to your Mixmax Public Calendar.
