Features

Key features of Flip Box

What the widget does, with the panel setting behind each feature.

Seven effects

Set the Flip Box Type to flip left, right, up or down. The Elementor flip box zoom and fade effects are zoom in, zoom out and fade in. Each Elementor flip box hover effect runs on hover.

3D depth

Turn on 3D Depth for an Elementor flip box 3D look: the content floats in front of the card while it turns.

Front and back content

Fill in the Elementor flip box front and back. Each side takes an icon or image, a Title with its HTML tag, and content from the text editor.

A button on the back

For an Elementor flip box with button, add a call to action in the Button section, with text, link, icon, icon position and a hover style.

Whole box or button link

Use Link Type for an Elementor flip box link: the entire card clickable, or only the button.

Height you control

Set a fixed Height per device so a row of flip boxes lines up.

Separate front and back styles

Front Background and Back Background take colours or gradients, with padding, border, shadow and radius.

Icon, title and content styling

Style the Front Icon and Back Icon (colour, background, size, padding, border) and the Title & Content of each side, so the flip card matches the rest of your page.

FAQ

Questions about Flip Box

How to make a flip card in Elementor?

Add the Flip Box widget, fill in the front and back, and pick a Flip Box Type. The Elementor flip card hover effect turns the card over when a visitor hovers it, with no code.

Which flip box hover effects are there?

Seven: flip to the left, right, up or down, zoom in, zoom out and fade in. The flips take 0.8 seconds; zoom and fade take 0.5 seconds.

What does 3D Depth do?

It lifts the content of both sides away from the card, so the icon and text seem to float in front of it while the card turns.

Can I add a button or link to a flip box?

Yes. Set Link Type to the whole box and the card becomes one link. Or keep a button on the back and link only that. Both work in an Elementor flip box with button or link.

Does the flip work on phones?

The flip runs on hover. Phone browsers apply the hover state when a card is tapped, so a tap shows the back. Keep the back text short for small screens.

Can I show an image instead of an icon?

Yes. Each side can show an icon from your icon library or an uploaded image, above the title.

Do I need Elementor Pro for Flip Box?

No. Flip Box works with Elementor Free. It is part of Animation Addons Pro, not Elementor Pro. It is a flip box addon for Elementor, so it sits next to the other widgets in the panel.

Does it work in Elementor 4?

Yes. It is a classic widget, so Elementor 4 lists it with the legacy widgets. For the new editor there is also the free Atomic Flip Box.

Is there a free Elementor flip box alternative?

Yes. The Atomic Flip Box is free and made for the Elementor 4 editor. Use this Pro Flip Box when you build with classic widgets and want 3D depth and seven effects.

How do I animate a flip box in Elementor?

Pick a Flip Box Type. The Elementor flip box animation runs on hover: a 0.8 second turn for the four flips, and a 0.5 second zoom or fade for the other three.
