What is a point embed?
A point embed lets you take one location from your map and drop it into your site as a clean, static map preview.
It includes:
• place name
• description
• photos
• key details
• buttons or links you’ve added
Think of it like a polished location card with a small map for context.
Perfect when a full map would feel like overkill.
Built for creators inside the portal
This feature lives inside the Proxi creator portal.
Only the map creator has access to generate embed links or iframe code. Visitors and viewers won’t see this option.
That means:
• you stay in control
• embeds stay consistent
• and your content stays managed from one place
You update the point in Proxi and the embed updates automatically everywhere it’s used.
No duplicate edits. No outdated info floating around your site.
Where this shines
Blog posts
Writing about a specific restaurant or attraction? Add the point directly into the article so readers instantly understand where it is and what makes it special.
Sponsor or partner pages
Feature a business with a visual, branded location card instead of just text and an address.
Event or venue pages
Show the exact meeting spot without embedding an entire event map.
Directories and CMS pages
Place individual locations throughout your website while keeping everything maintained inside Proxi.
It keeps pages clean, focused, and easier to scan.
Share it with businesses, too
Once you generate the embed, you can also send that code to a participating business.
They can paste it onto their own website to showcase their listing.
It’s an easy way for them to:
• display their location beautifully
• keep details current
• add visual context
• avoid rebuilding the same information manually
And since you control the source, any updates you make automatically stay in sync.
How it works
Inside any point in the creator portal:
- Open the point
- Copy the static map embed link or iframe
- Paste it into your website or CMS
You can customize:
• width and height
• layout styles (map right, info left, etc.)
• additional parameters for advanced setups
• programmatic use in your CMS
Works great with Squarespace, WordPress, Webflow, or custom builds.
Lightweight and simple
These are static embeds, which keeps them fast and reliable.
Visitors can view all the details on the point card and interact with any links or buttons you’ve added.
It’s meant for clarity and presentation, not full map navigation.
Try it out
Open any point in your Proxi creator portal and grab the embed code. It takes about 30 seconds.
