Borrower email notification

This article explains the different types of Borrower Email Notifications sent from FileInvite, who receives them, when they are triggered, and how they can be customized.

Who Receives These Emails?

These emails are sent to the contacts associated with an Invite — typically the individuals from whom documents or responses are being requested.

If branding is enabled, these emails will automatically inherit your organization’s branding (logos, colors, etc.).

You can customize the content of many of these emails by going to:
Settings > Borrower Email 

Please note: Not all email types listed above are currently available for customization.
