Once the user opens this link on his own computer, he is asked for his name and email id.

9.The user can now click at any spot where he wants to give feedback! Easy!
Do Reviewers Have to Verify Email When Signing Up/Login?
If the clients and users are required to login, they have to verify their account by following these 4 simple steps.
Step 1 — Sign Up or Accept an Invitation
When you create a new zipBoard account or click an invitation link from a teammate, you'll be prompted to enter your email address and set a password. Once you submit the form, zipBoard automatically sends a verification email to the address you provided.
Step 2 — Check Your Inbox
Open the inbox for the email address you used during sign-up. Look for an email from zipBoard with the subject line similar to "Verify your email address" or "Confirm your zipBoard account". The email typically arrives within 1–2 minutes.
💡 Tip: If you don't see it in your primary inbox, check your Spam, Junk, or Promotions folder. Corporate email systems and filters sometimes route automated emails there.
Step 3 — Click the Verification Link
Open the email and click the "Verify Email" button or link. This will open a browser tab confirming that your email has been successfully validated.
Note: To prevent our mail servers from being overwhelmed, there is a 30-second cooldown on this button. If it is greyed out, simply wait for the countdown to hit zero to try again.
Step 4 — Start Using zipBoard
That's it! Once verified, you have full access to your zipBoard account. You can now create projects, annotate files, collaborate with your team, and receive all notifications.red route to be as simple and frictionless as possible. Here is a breakdown of the key elements you’ll see:
