Overview

Initiate the consent process for your customers to enroll in electronic delivery (eDelivery) of eligible documents. This enables a customer to receive an email notification that a document is available in Fidelity.com instead of waiting to receive the paper copy in the mail.

Once you indicate that a customer is interested in eDelivery, a "Click to Agree" email is generated. The generated email is sent following the conclusion of the nightly batch cycle to the account's email address on record. Upon receipt of the email, the account owner consents to electronic delivery by selecting the "I Agree" link. A Revised Account Profile (RAP) is then sent to the account's mailing address on record notifying the account owner of the change to the document delivery instructions.

Although enrollment does not require the account owner to log into Fidelity.com, the account owner must have a Fidelity.com username and password to access documents online, when available.

Some guidelines:

Enroll in eDelivery

Initiate enrollment for accounts or clients associated with your G Number, up to 2,000 at one time.

Email Address is Missing

A valid email address is required to enroll in eDelivery. When an email address is not on record for an account, during enrollment, an "Enter Email Address" message displays. Enter an email address for the account so you can continue the enrollment process. This address then becomes the account's email address on record. You may also edit an email address, if needed.

Note
If a customer asks to switch from electronic back to paper delivery, advise the customer to make this change on the Your Profile tab in Fidelity.com. You cannot make this switch using this tool.

    Along the bottom of the table, select the check box of each document to go paperless.

    To change delivery options for some documents for a single account:
    In the row for an account, select Electronic for each document to go paperless. Repeat this step to change options for remaining accounts.

    - Where already enrolled, Electronic displays.
    - Where pending enrollment, Pending displays.

  7. Read the Consent that displays.

    - To acknowledge agreement and proceed, select I Agree.
    - A message confirms your changes.
    - Select Close.

    For documents that you changed, delivery instructions now display "Pending." A Click to Agree email is generated following the conclusion of the nightly batch cycle.

    Paper documents continue to be sent to the customer until Fidelity receives consent. When completed successfully, delivery instructions display "Electronic."
