If you've ever copy-pasted the same contract 40 times and sent each one manually, you already know the pain. Bulk sending contracts for signing sounds simple in theory — one document, many recipients — but most eSignature tools either don't support it properly or charge you a subscription fee that makes scaling painfully expensive.
There's a smarter way to do it. GoodSign's bulk send feature lets you create one template and fire it off to as many recipients as you need, each as a completely separate, tracked envelope. No manual copy-paste. No spreadsheet of "did they sign yet?" No bloated monthly fee.
Here's how it works, and when to use it.
The term bulk esignature gets thrown around loosely. Some tools let you collect multiple signatures on a single document — that's a multi-signer workflow, not bulk sending. What you actually want when scaling is different: one document sent to multiple signers as individual envelopes, each with its own signing link, its own audit trail, and its own completion status.
That distinction matters enormously. If you're sending NDAs to 50 contractors, you don't want all 50 names on the same document. You want 50 separate signed copies, each legally tied to one individual. Bulk send handles that automatically.
Before you send anything, you build a template. This is the master version of your document — the NDA, the client agreement, the employment contract — with signing fields already placed exactly where they need to go.
You define:
Once the template is saved, you never touch the document layout again. Every envelope generated from it inherits the same structure, the same fields, the same professional formatting. This is the foundation that makes sending one document to multiple signers fast and consistent at scale.
With your template ready, the actual send process is straightforward.
You import your recipient list — typically a CSV with names and email addresses — and the system generates individual envelopes for each person automatically. Each recipient gets their own unique signing link delivered to their inbox. From their perspective, it looks like a document sent specifically to them, because it is.
From your perspective, you get a dashboard showing exactly where each envelope stands: sent, opened, signed, or declined. No chasing. No guessing. If someone hasn't signed, you can send a targeted reminder to that individual without bothering everyone else who already completed it.
The per-envelope pricing model makes this financially predictable. At $1.50 per envelope, you pay for what you send — nothing more. If you need to send 20 contracts this month and 200 next month, your cost scales with your actual usage. There's no subscription, no user limits, no fee for having your whole team on the account.
Bulk sending isn't just a nice feature for edge cases. It solves real, recurring problems for businesses that deal with high-volume signing.
HR onboarding is the obvious one. When you're bringing on a new cohort of employees or contractors, they all need to sign the same offer letter, handbook acknowledgment, or compliance form. Bulk send handles a group of 5 or a group of 500 with the same effort on your end.
Client agreements at scale matter for agencies and service businesses. If you update your terms of service, your master service agreement, or your data processing addendum, you may need every active client to re-sign. Bulk send turns a week of manual outreach into an afternoon.
NDAs are another high-frequency use case. Startups talking to investors, agencies briefing freelancers, companies entering vendor negotiations — NDAs move fast and the signing friction needs to be near-zero. When 65.3% of documents are signed within 24 hours, the workflow doesn't slow down your business.
This part matters for compliance and disputes. Each envelope in a bulk send carries its own full audit trail — timestamps for when the email was delivered, when the document was opened, when each field was completed, and when the signature was applied.
This means if one contractor disputes whether they signed your NDA, you have granular, recipient-specific evidence tied to their envelope alone. The audit trail isn't shared
