Buttons

These cute clickable dials are how we let members know what action they should take


How we use them

  • Keep button copy short
  • Use the primary button style to show the most important action
  • The primary button style should only be used once per major section of a page
  • The size of the copy lets you know how big the button should be. If we have full-width buttons on some components and not others the website starts to look a bit messy

Designed for inclusion

  • All of our buttons are set at 48px high; a nice big tap target
  • We keep button copy clear and concise, for optimum usability
  • We ensure that our buttons have the appropriate aria labelling to give all users clarity

Primary centered button

Primary buttons should convey the main action. Try to only use these once per email.
