Notifications
Configure email notifications for due dates, overdue obligations, and team activity — so nothing falls through the cracks.
ObligoBoard sends automated email notifications to keep you and your team on top of compliance deadlines. You can configure which notifications you receive from Settings → Notifications.
Types of notifications
Due date reminders
A reminder is sent when an obligation is due within the next 3 days. Reminders run daily at 07:00 UTC.
Due date reminders are only sent for obligations that are not yet completed or skipped.
Overdue notifications
Sent the day after an obligation passes its due date without being completed. Overdue notifications include the obligation title, original due date, assigned team member, and a direct link.
Assignment notifications
Sent when a team member assigns an obligation to you. Includes the obligation title, due date, and a direct link to open it.
Trial and billing notifications
Sent to the account owner when:
- Your trial has 3 days remaining
- Your trial has 1 day remaining
- Your trial expires
- A payment fails or your subscription changes

Changes take effect immediately.
Billing notifications (payment failures, trial expiry) cannot be disabled — these are mandatory for account management.
How reminders are triggered
ObligoBoard uses a daily cron job that runs at 07:00 UTC to send due date reminders. When an admin loads the Dashboard, a background trigger also fires the reminder job — this acts as a safety net in case the scheduled cron is delayed.
Email delivery
All emails are sent from info@obligoboard.com. Add this address to your safe-senders list to ensure notifications aren't filtered to spam.
