Deposit form

info

The deposit form is available on the Business plan.

The deposit form lets you collect specific documents through a structured, reusable form. You define exactly which files are expected, with which constraints (required, multiple…), then you share the form's URL with your contacts.

When to use a deposit form?

  • You need to collect several distinct document types (ID, proof of address, contract…)
  • You want to indicate which ones are required and which are optional
  • You want to display a personalized welcome message to the sender
  • You regularly collect the same file types (client onboarding, job application, audit…)
  • You do not want to share your email address to receive files, or avoid attachments in your inbox

Create a deposit form

  1. Go to Dashboard > Deposit box > Add a deposit
  2. Choose Deposit form
  3. Enter the form name (internal use)
  4. Write a welcome message (shown to the sender before they send their files)
  5. Add items: click Add item for each expected document type

Editing a deposit form

Configure an item

Each item has the following properties:

PropertyDescription
NameLabel shown to the sender (e.g. "ID document")
RequiredThe sender must provide this file in order to send
Multiple files allowedAllows depositing several files for this item

You can reorder items by drag and drop.

warning

A form with no item cannot be activated: add at least one item so its link becomes usable.

As with a deposit link, you can choose whether a Retyc account is required or optional to deposit, and add co-recipients who are members of your organization.

Once the form is created, its link is available from Deposit box > My deposits, Deposit form tab, via Copy link.

What the sender sees

The sender arrives on a page with the form's welcome message, then sees each item as a separate drop zone, marked required or optional.

They cannot send until the required items are filled in. They then click Send to finish.

View received files

Files sent through a form appear under Dashboard > Transfer > Inbox, organized by form item. You can download each file individually or all of them at once.

Copy to a dataroom

From a received transfer view, you can copy the files directly into a dataroom of your choice, without an intermediate download. See Copy to a dataroom.
