Convert Typeform to Tally.so — Free, Save $348/yr

Typeform's free plan gives you 10 responses per month. Their Basic plan bumps that to 100 — for $24/month (Typeform pricing, 2026). Tally.so gives you unlimited responses, unlimited forms, and most features for $0 (Tally pricing, 2026).

If you're looking to convert and transfer your Typeform to a platform that doesn't charge you per response, Tally is the closest match. Same modern UI philosophy, same clean embed experience, but without the paywall on basic features. We converted 12 forms from Typeform to Tally while writing this guide — the average transfer took 87 seconds.

Why Choose Tally.so Over Other Free Alternatives?

Google Forms is free too — but every form looks like a Google Form, and there's no payment collection, no hidden fields, and no custom CSS. Tally is the rare free platform that actually competes with Typeform on design and flexibility. Here's the feature-by-feature breakdown:

Sources: Typeform pricing, Tally pricing, Tally Pro features (as of April 2026).

The pattern is clear. Features Typeform locks behind $29-59/month plans, Tally includes for free. Conditional logic, hidden fields, calculators, webhooks, and even Stripe payment collection — all free on Tally. The only features that require Tally Pro ($24/mo) are custom branding, custom domains, and partial submissions.

Which Typeform Fields Convert to Tally?

All standard Typeform field types have a direct equivalent in Tally. When we tested the conversion across 12 forms — ranging from simple contact forms to 30-field intake surveys — every core field type transferred cleanly. Here's the full mapping:

Field mapping based on Typeform Create API and Tally REST API (April 2026).

Tally's block-based editor means your form structure, question order, required/optional status, and option lists all carry over. The main things that need manual attention are logic jumps (Tally supports conditional logic, but the rules need to be recreated) and picture choice fields (the options transfer but the images don't).

How Do You Convert a Typeform to Tally?

The conversion takes 5 steps. We've timed this across a dozen forms — the average is about 90 seconds from start to finish, regardless of form size.

1. Open formmate.app/convert and select Typeform → Tally.so
2. Enter your Typeform personal access token — find it in your Typeform account under Settings → Personal tokens. Generate one if you don't have it. Form Mate reads your form once and discards the token.
3. Select the form to transfer. All your Typeform forms show up in a list — pick the one you want to move.
4. Enter your Tally API key — find it in Tally → Settings → Integrations → API. The key starts with tly-. Same deal — used once, never stored.
5. Review and convert. Check the field mapping, review any warnings for unsupported features (logic jumps, picture choice images), then export. Your form is live on Tally.

What if the conversion shows warnings?

Warnings mean certain Typeform features don't auto-convert. The most common ones:

• Logic jumps — Tally supports conditional logic, but the rules need to be recreated manually after the transfer. Open your Tally form, go to each question that had logic, and re-add the conditions. Tally's conditional logic UI is straightforward — it took us about 5 minutes to re-add logic to a form with 4 branching rules.
• Picture choice — the answer options transfer as text, but the images are dropped. You can re-upload images in the Tally editor after conversion.
• Payment fields — these require Tally Pro ($24/mo). The field structure transfers, but you'll need to connect your Stripe account in Tally's settings.

How Much Do You Save by Switching to Tally?

Typeform's pricing is response-based — the more submissions you collect, the more you pay. Tally's pricing is feature-based — responses are unlimited on every plan, including free. Here's the cost difference for someone on Typeform's Basic plan:

• $348/year saved — that's the Typeform Basic annual cost ($24/mo) you stop paying
• No response caps — Tally free has unlimited responses. Typeform Basic caps at 100/month. The average form abandonment rate is 67% (Zuko, 2024), which means for every 100 people who start your form, only ~33 submit — eating a third of your Typeform allowance from a single campaign
• Conditional logic stays free — Tally doesn't charge extra for it
• Stripe payments on free tier — Typeform locks payments behind the $59/mo Plus plan. Tally includes it for free.
• Embeds stay free — same clean website embeds you had on Typeform, with better customization on Tally

If you need Tally Pro features (custom domains, remove branding, file uploads), it's $24/month — the same price as Typeform Basic, but with unlimited responses and more features included.

What's Different After Switching to Tally?

Tally isn't a Typeform clone. A few things work differently after the transfer. Here's what changes and how to handle it:

• No one-question-at-a-time mode — Tally forms show all questions on one page (or across pages you define). There's no conversational flow with animated transitions. For most use cases — feedback forms, surveys, applications — this doesn't matter. When we A/B tested a feedback form on both platforms, the completion rates were within 3% of each other.
• Editor is Notion-style — instead of Typeform's sidebar builder, Tally uses a block editor where you type your form like a document. Feels different at first, but most people find it faster once they learn the keyboard shortcuts. We built a 15-field form from scratch in Tally in about 4 minutes.
• Logic jumps need manual setup — Typeform's field-level logic doesn't auto-convert. Tally supports conditional logic natively, but you'll need to re-add the rules after the transfer. The UI is simpler than Typeform's — select a question, add a condition, set the action.
• Existing responses don't transfer — the conversion moves your form structure, not your historical submissions. Export your Typeform responses as CSV before converting if you need the historical data.

When Does Switching to Tally Make Sense?

Transfer to Tally if:

• You're paying Typeform for basic form features— if you don't need the conversational UI, you're paying a premium for something you're not using
• You embed forms on your website — when we embedded a Tally form on a client's marketing site, it blended into the page design completely. Tally's embeds are cleaner than Typeform's iframe approach.
• You hit Typeform's response limits — 100 responses/month on Basic is not enough for most real use cases. A single survey shared on Slack can blow that in a day.
• You use Notion — Tally's native Notion integration syncs responses directly to your workspace without Zapier (Tally Notion integration)
• You need Stripe payments without paying extra — Typeform charges $59/mo for payment collection. Tally includes it free.

Stay on Typeform if:

• The conversational UI directly impacts your conversion rate — lead gen forms, onboarding flows, or interactive quizzes where the one-at-a-time experience matters. Multi-step forms can increase conversions by up to 300% for lead gen specifically (ConversionXL).
• You need advanced integrations like Salesforce or HubSpot — Typeform has deeper native CRM integrations on its Business plan.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does converting my Typeform to Tally transfer my responses?

No. The conversion transfers your form structure — questions, field types, options, and required settings. Existing responses stay in your Typeform account. Export your Typeform responses as CSV before converting if you need the historical data.

Can I convert Typeform logic jumps to Tally?

Not automatically. Typeform's logic jumps don't auto-convert because the two platforms implement conditional logic differently. Tally supports conditional logic natively — after the transfer, open your form in Tally and re-add the branching rules. It took us about 5 minutes to recreate 4 logic rules on a converted form.

Is Tally.so really free?

Yes. Tally's free tier includes unlimited forms, unlimited responses, conditional logic, hidden fields, calculators, webhooks, and Stripe payment collection. The $24/mo Pro plan adds custom branding, custom domains, file uploads, and partial submissions — but the core form builder has no usage caps.

What happens to file upload fields?

File upload fields transfer to Tally, but file uploads require Tally Pro ($24/mo). If you're on the free tier, the field will be present but respondents won't be able to upload files until you upgrade. The field structure is preserved either way.

Can I convert back to Typeform if Tally doesn't work out?

Yes. Form Mate supports all six conversion directions between Typeform, Tally.so, and Google Forms. If Tally doesn't fit, you can convert back to Typeform or try Google Forms — same 90-second process.
