Buttons
Buttons communicate the action that will occur when a user taps them.
General Button Guidelines
Labels are always title case.
Labels are clear and succinct.
Labels are text only; characters, like carrots, are not used alongside text.
Labels are verbs or adverbs that express the action the button will trigger.
Icons links should only be used when representing common paradigms.
Button Width Guidelines
Button widths will vary depending on the context. As a rule of thumb, please refer to our grid measurements for button widths. Buttons can be up to 3 columns wide.
Usage of Buttons
Buttons allow users to trigger an action, like submitting information or confirming an action. They may take form in buttons, text links, or icon links.
Types of Buttons
Button CTAs
Button CTAs come in two sizes, Large and Small. Large CTA buttons are the primary CTA styles used across Desktop and Mobile Web. They are used when there is a main ask from the user that should be prioritized above other asks on the same page. Small CTA buttons (less commonly used) are available when there are multiple primary CTAs on the same page.
Primary Button CTA
Primary button CTAs are used for the most important action on the page. These buttons are opaque and come in two sizes, large and small.
