Embed Our Paycheck Calculator on Your Site
By Barron Hansen, Founder · Updated April 20, 2026
If you run a personal finance site, a relocation blog, a job-board, or a salary-negotiation guide, you can embed the PaycheckCalc paycheck calculator on your own pages for free. The widget works on any site that supports HTML iframes. There is no signup, no API key, and no tracking pixel. You can customize the default state, the default salary, or both via URL parameters, so a California relocation article can embed a calculator pre-set to California or a $100,000 salary. Attribution back to PaycheckCalc is included automatically in the widget footer; please leave it intact as a condition of free use.
Basic embed code
Paste the snippet below anywhere on your page. The calculator loads with no preset state or salary; users pick their own.
<iframe src="https://paychecktakehomecalculator.com/embed/calculator"
width="100%" height="900" frameborder="0"

The iframe below is the actual widget at its default settings.
Customization options
Pre-select a state
Add ?state=CA to the URL. The state code is the two-letter USPS abbreviation (CA, NY, TX, FL, and so on).

width="100%" height="900" frameborder="0"
title="PaycheckCalc 2026 paycheck calculator"></iframe>Pre-set a salary
Add ?salary=100000 to start the calculator at a specific gross annual salary. Enter the number without commas or a dollar sign.

title="PaycheckCalc 2026 paycheck calculator"></iframe>Pre-set filing status
Add ?filing=single or ?filing=married to set the default filing status. The user can still change it after the widget loads.

Chain parameters with &. A California relocation article can preset both state and salary at once.

title="PaycheckCalc 2026 paycheck calculator"></iframe>Recommended sizing
A height of 900px covers the full calculator on most layouts. 600 to 700px works if your container is narrow and you are comfortable letting the calculator scroll internally. The widget is responsive on width, so a 100% width attribute fills whatever container you place it in.
Attribution requirement
The widget includes a small "Powered by paychecktakehomecalculator.com" link in the footer. This must remain intact as a condition of free use. Please do not strip the attribution with CSS, frame-busting, or other workarounds.
