Resend a notification to a signer

This article explains when you can resend a notification, how to do it, and what to check if the signer still does not receive the message.

Use Send new notification to signer when a signer has not completed a signing, and you want to send the signing notification again.

Before you start

The Send new notification to signer option is only available when the original notification was sent by Email or SMS.

⚠️You cannot use this option if the original notification method was Digital Post.

You can resend a notification once per hour during the signing’s expiration period.

Resend a notification

  1. Go to Overview.

  2. Open the transaction where you want to resend the notification:

    Open the relevant transaction from Overview.

  3. Select the signer who should receive a new notification.

  4. Click Send new notification to signer:

    Use Send new notification to signer to resend the signing notification.

  5. Click OK in the confirmation window.

The notification is sent again through the same channel as the original notification.

If the signer still does not receive the notification

If the signer still does not receive the notification, check the transaction before contacting support.

You can:

  • Review the Log to see whether the notification was sent or if a delivery error occurred

  • Check that the signer’s email address or phone number is correct

  • Ask the signer to check their spam or junk folder

  • Confirm that the signing has not expired

  • Copy the signing link and share it manually, if this action is available

For more details about recorded notification events, see Transaction Log in Addo Sign.

When you update the signer’s email address

If you update a signer’s email address in Addo Sign, a new notification is automatically sent to the updated address.

This applies when the transaction still allows the updated signer details to trigger a new notification. If the transaction has failed because the e-mail address was incorrect or inactive, update and save the e-mail address before reactivating the transaction instead.

Manually share the signing link

You can also share the signing link manually with the signer.

To do this, copy the unique signing link from the signer details by clicking Copy link, then send the link to the signer by email or another approved channel.

⚠️Only share the link with the intended signer.

Before contacting support

Before contacting Addo Sign Support, you should check:

  • The transaction status

  • The signer’s email address or phone number

  • The transaction Log

  • Whether the notification method is Email, SMS, or Digital Post

  • Whether the signing is still within its expiration period

  • Whether one hour has passed since the last reminder was sent

If you still need help, include:

  • Transaction ID

  • Signing ID

  • Signer name and email address or phone number

  • Notification method

  • Relevant log entry or error message

  • Screenshot of the issue
