Upload Contacts In Bulk and Assign to an Email Group
An Email group is required to use the Bulk Send feature. Merge recipients' details using the sample Excel sheet, upload it into Foxit eSign, and send your document(s) with a click. The eSignature process for bulk sending is the same as sending to a single signer except it will send to a previously created Email Group. Each recipient from the bulk group email receives their own copy of the document to electronically sign.
Field Merge
Each field in a document being sent by bulk send can be customized with the Field Merge feature. In the example below, we have a field named Amount on the document and we can prefill the value for all the recipients in the bulk send. The prefill value is specific to the recipient on the same row.
