With Belvo's Connect Widget, you can optionally add the following branding and customization:

  • Your company logo
  • Your company icon
  • Your company name
  • Link to your privacy policy
  • Custom messaging for consent purpose
  • Add a custom overlay color
  • Hide messaging in the institution select screen
  • Enable dark mode
  • Add custom colors to the widget
Add branding when generating access_token

To add branding to your widget, it must be done in the same backend call as your request to generate an access_token. For a full example of how this looks like, see the code example below.

Add a company icon

You can add your company icon to the widget to make it more aligned with your brand. When you add your company icon, it appears on the following screen:

  • initial start of the widget

Make sure that your icon has square dimensions, in SVG format, has a transparent background, and contains no surrounding whitespace. If your icon does not follow these specifications, the Belvo widget will display the following icon:

Instructions
To add a custom company icon, just add the URL to your SVG image to the company_icon key.

{
  "widget": {
    "branding": {
      ...
      "company_icon": "https://mysite.com/icon.svg",
      ...
        }
     }
}

You can add your company logo to the widget to make it more aligned with your brand. When you add your company logo, it appears on the following screens:

  • while the account is being linked
  • once an account is successfully linked
  • when a user chooses to cancel the linking process

Make sure that your logo is in SVG format, has a transparent background, and contains no surrounding whitespace. For the best visibility and scaling, we suggest that you use a horizontal logo (see the top-left example in the image below).

Instructions
To add a custom company logo, just add the URL to your SVG image to the company_logo key.

Company Logo
{
  "widget": {
    "branding": {
      ...
      "company_logo": "https://mysite.com/logo.svg",
      ...
        }
     }
}

Add your company name

You can add your company name to be displayed when the widget first starts. By default, it'll just display "Link your account". When you add your company name, the message will follow the format "[company_name] uses Belvo to connect your account".

Please note, only the company name is customizable in the introductory sentence

Instructions

To add your company name, just add it to the company_name key.

Company Name
{
  "widget": {
    "branding": {
      ...
      "company_name": "ACME",
      ...
        }
     }
}

You can add a link to your privacy policy (or terms and conditions) on the initial screen of the widget that, when clicked, will redirect your users to the linked webpage. This helps your users better understand what your use case is regarding the data you are requesting. By default the widget will include the URL to Belvo's privacy policy (<https://belvo.com/terms-service/>).

Instructions
To add a link to your privacy policy in the initial connect screen, just add the URL to your policy to the company_terms_url key.

Company Terms URL
{
  "widget": {
    "branding": {
      ...
      "company_terms_url": "https://belvo.com/terms-service/",
      ...
        }
     }
}

You can modify the text describing the purpose for requesting your user's data (Propósito do compartilhamento) to better describe your use case.

By default, the displayed text is: _Soluções financeiras personalizadas oferecidas por meio de recomendações sob medida, visando melhores ofertas de produtos financeiros e de crédito. _

Instructions

To customize the text describing the purpose for requesting access to your user's data, just add your text (maximum 600 characters) to the purpose key.

Consent Purpose
{
  "widget": {
    "consent": {
       "purpose": "Your custom text here. Max 600 characters",
       ...
    }
  }   
}

Add a custom overlay color

You can add a custom overlay color for when the widget loads in your desktop application. We recommend choosing a neutral color related to your brand to keep environmental context. By default, this overlay is set to grey.

Overlay opacity

No matter what color you upload, Belvo will automatically set the opacity to 90%. This is due to the following UX best practices:

  • With lower opacities (less than 70%), the user can experience difficulties focusing on the flow as they will have “visual noise" in the background.
  • Block colors (opacity set at 100%) may cause a drastic change, resulting in a disjointed or unnatural experience.

Instructions

To set the overlay color, just add the full HEX code (## followed by six characters) to the overlay_background_color key.

Overlay Background
{
  "widget": {
    "branding": {
      ...
      "overlay_background_color": "#F0F2F4",
      ...
        }
     }
}

Hide messaging in the institution select screen

You can choose to hide the "Mais de 5 milhões de usuários já conectaram com segurança suas contas." message that appears when your user selects their institution in the widget. By default, this message is visible in the widget (true).

Instructions

To hide the message in the institution select screen, just set the social_proof parameter to false.

Social Proof
{
  "widget": {
    "branding": {
      ...
      "social_proof": false,
      ...
        }
     }
}

Enable dark mode

The Connect Widget supports a dark mode theme. To enable it, you need to pass the DARK value in the color_scheme parameter inside the widget object.

{
  "widget": {
    "color_scheme": "DARK",
  }
}

When dark mode is enabled, you can also customize the colors. To apply a custom style specifically for dark mode, simply append -dark to any of the CSS variables listed in the sections below. For example, to change the primary color in dark mode, you would use "--color-primary-base-dark".

OFDA Dark Mode

Add custom colors to the widget

You can further customize the widget by adding your own brand’s colors to several parts of the widget:

  • The primary color for buttons, checkboxes, and the progress bar
  • The color of the navigation icons and text

The possible modifications are listed in the table below:

CSS VariableDefault (Light)Default (Dark)Description
--color-primary-base#0663F9#0663F9Sets the primary color for buttons, checkboxes, and the progress bar.
--nav-bar-title-color#161A1D#011432Sets the color of the navigation bar title.
--nav-bar-icon-color#161A1D#011432Sets the color of navigation bar icons.

Instructions

To set your brand’s colors:

  1. Add the theme array to the widget object.
  2. For each item you want to modify, add an object that has the keys css_key and value (see the code sample below). The color values can be either in HEX, RGB, or RGBA format.
Light Mode Example
{
  "widget": {
    "color_scheme": "LIGHT",
    "branding": {}, // Your customized branding
    "theme": [
      {
        "css_key": "--color-primary-base",
        "value": "#0663F9"
      },
      {
        "css_key": "--nav-bar-title-color",
        "value": "#161A1D"
      },
      {
        "css_key": "--nav-bar-icon-color",
        "value": "#161A1D"
      }
    ],
  }
}
