Free AwardLocker widget for your site
A drop-in script that surfaces live award availability for any route. Free. No registration. Each embed is a backlink — the only thing we ask is the "Powered by AwardLocker" line stays visible.
What it looks like
A clean card with the route, cabin-class quick links, and a CTA back to the full live search:
How to add it to your site
Two lines of HTML anywhere on your page:
<div id="awardlocker-widget" data-origin="JFK" data-destination="LHR"></div>
<script src="https://awardlocker.com/embed/widget.js" async></script>Replace JFK and LHR with any IATA codes for the route you want. The widget renders inline and links to live availability search at AwardLocker.
Multiple widgets per page
Use unique IDs starting with awardlocker-widget to embed multiple routes:
<div id="awardlocker-widget-1" data-origin="LAX" data-destination="SYD"></div>
<div id="awardlocker-widget-2" data-origin="SFO" data-destination="HKG"></div>
<div id="awardlocker-widget-3" data-origin="JFK" data-destination="CDG"></div>
<script src="https://awardlocker.com/embed/widget.js" async></script>Why we built it

FAQ
Do I need permission to use the widget?
No. The widget is freely available for any non-commercial use. We only ask that the "Powered by AwardLocker" link in the widget remains visible. We may add usage analytics in the future to understand usage patterns; nothing personal beyond the embedding domain.
Will the widget slow my site?
No. The script is <8 KB and loads async. It renders only after the host page finishes parsing.
Can I customize the widget design?
Not currently. The design is opinionated to match AwardLocker brand. We may add theme options in v2 if there's demand.
What if I want to embed pricing instead of just availability?
Pricing-display widgets are on our roadmap. Currently the widget links to live AwardLocker search rather than displaying pricing inline.
