How to send signature requests without email notifications in BoldSign?

Published:
2 mins read

Whenever a document is sent for signature, the signer will receive an email notification of the signature request. However, the sender can generate a signing link for a recipient and share it via a preferred messaging platform instead of sending an email notification. This allows the sender to control how the signature request is delivered to the signer.

Disable email notifications for signers

By default, BoldSign sends an email notification when a document is shared for signing. Follow below steps to prevent this:

  • Navigate to Settings and select Business Profile option.
  • Move to the Notifications tab.
  • Locate the notification Receive a document to sign or approve under Recipient Notifications.
  • Uncheck this option and save the changes.
  • This prevents automatic email notifications when documents are shared.
