How to Invite Clients & Users to Review a Website (No Login Needed)

When clients and stakeholders have to sign up, create passwords, or learn a new tool just to leave feedback, it slows everything down.

With zipBoard, you can invite clients and users to review your website without requiring them to log in.

This makes collecting client feedback and user feedback seamless, fast, and friction-free.

How It Works: Collect Website Feedback Without Forcing a Login

zipBoard allows you to:

  • Send a public review link for any website project
  • Let clients, users, and external stakeholders add comments directly on the website
  • Keep feedback organized and tied to specific screens or issues
  • Control access (optional) with link expiration or passwords if needed

How to Invite Clients and Users to Review a Website in zipBoard

Follow these simple steps:

For Clients

  1. Open Your Project

In zipBoard, go to your dashboard and select the project that contains the website you want reviewed.

  1. Open the Share File Modal

  • Navigate to the file you wish to share and click the Share button.

  1. Select Clients

  • In the Client tab, choose the clients you want to share the file with. Existing clients will appear with their current permissions pre-selected.

  1. Set Access Permissions
  • Use the dropdown under the Access tab to select one of the following options:
    • All Comments: Default setting where all Collaborator, Client, and Guest Reviewer comments are visible.
    • Only External Comments: Restricts visibility to Client and Guest Reviewer comments only.
    • Remove Access: Removes a client’s ability to view a previously shared file.
  1. Save Changes
  • Click Share to save your changes. Feedback messages will confirm the success or highlight any errors.

For Users

  1. Open the file you want to share in zipBoard.
  2. Click the "Share File" button on the review page.

  3. In the "Share Review with Guest" modal, configure the permissions based on what level of access you want to grant.

    ✔ View Only – Guests can only see the file but cannot add feedback.

    ✔ Commenting Enabled – Guests can add comments but not annotations.

    ✔ Full Feedback Access – Guests can add comments, annotations, and mark changes.

  4. Copy the generated share link and send it to your guest reviewers.

3. Send the Link to Your Clients or Users

Share the link via:

  • Email
  • Slack
  • Microsoft Teams
  • Project Management Tools
  • Embed in a client portal

No signup required — they can start reviewing instantly!

What Clients and Users Can Do with the Link

Once they open the public review link, they can:

✅ Navigate the website

✅ Click and annotate directly on live pages

✅ Leave text comments, visual markups, or pinned notes

✅ View or reply to other comments (depending on settings)

✅ Upload attachments if needed (optional)

Best Practices for Getting Great Feedback

  • Be clear on what kind of feedback you’re looking for (design issues, bugs, content review, etc.)
