Border wait cards for your site

Blogs, hotels, clinics, parking sites, and local publishers can show one wait, compare 2 to 4 crossings, or publish a history chart.

One clear starting point

What are you trying to do?

Choose one path. Every path keeps freshness, direction, and attribution visible.

Quick answer

Start with where it will appear: hotel, directory, article, lobby, or report. We apply a recommended format and width; then choose the crossing and check the preview. Install with one oEmbed link, a no-JavaScript image, or one code snippet. Every wait is labeled as entering the U.S.; outbound travel is not inferred.

Clear access

Test a card and history chart before requesting access. Multi-crossing boards require Widget Pro.

2. Fine-tune display (optional)3. Choose crossing

Show setup code

<script async src="https://usborderwait.com/widget.js" data-widget="wait-card" data-site-key="usborderwait" data-locale="en-US" data-crossing="san-ysidro" data-theme="card" data-appearance="light" data-color="#1957a6" data-chart="week"></script>

For editors with oEmbed discovery: paste this link into an Embed or URL block. The editor receives a linked, updating wait badge. This path uses the default compact style, not the visual controls above.

Editor did not create the badge?

That editor does not accept external oEmbed providers. Use the no-JavaScript alternative below or setup code above.

https://usborderwait.com/api/public/oembed?url=https%3A%2F%2Fusborderwait.com%2Fsan-ysidro-border-wait-times&format=json

Shows wait when available, source context, update time, and attribution as SVG. No access code included. Uses public caching; open the page to confirm.

Opens the current crossing page." width="520" height="96" loading="lazy" decoding="async" style="display:block;max-width:100%;height:auto;border:0"></a>

6. Publish and verify

Editor preview does not prove script policy, CSP, or published width.

Card loads without showing code as text.
Attribution and crossing link are visible and work.
No horizontal scrolling at 320px.
Data status, update time, and no-data message remain clear.

Card uses this site, language, theme, color, and weekly chart when history exists.

Free cards help local travelers and open the full page when they need more detail.

Card questions

How do I add a border wait card?

Choose a crossing. If your editor supports oEmbed, copy only the crossing link and paste it into an Embed or URL block. Otherwise, copy the code into an HTML, Code, or Embed block. Before publishing, use the inspector to check host, format, crossings, and access without executing the code.

Can I show a historical border wait graph on my site?

Yes. The historical graph lets you choose range, lane type, size, appearance, color, area/line/bar style, optional point markers, optional title, and visible stats. Every graph links back to the main crossing page.

What attribution does the card require?

Visible attribution and the link to the full crossing page must remain. This preserves provider context, update time, lane details, alerts, and reuse policy.

Are there options for search tools or local sites?

Yes. Use a free card, a chart for patterns, or the Pro board for 2 to 4 crossings. Copy the setup link without exposing the Pro access code. For licensed wait data, use Dunvale or the data guide.
