Choose your notification and email preferences
Decide which events notify you in the app and which arrive by email, and control your weekly report summary.
What you'll learn
- Choose which events notify you in-app and which send email
- Control your weekly report summary
VEXORS keeps you informed three ways: in-app alerts in the bell panel, emails to your account address, and push notifications on your device. The Notifications page lets you decide, category by category, which events reach you on each channel, so your inbox stays useful and nothing important slips by. You will find it in Settings.
Why this matters
Procurement moves on deadlines. A bid arriving, an approval waiting on you, a request closing in 24 hours: these are the moments where a well-timed alert is the difference between winning and missing out. Tuning your notifications means the urgent things reach you immediately while routine updates stay quietly in the app.
In-app, email, and push
Every category can notify you on up to three channels:
| Channel | What it means |
|---|---|
| In-app | Shown in the bell notification panel inside VEXORS while you are using the app. |
| Sent to your account email so you hear about it even when you are away from the app. | |
| Push | A device push notification, where supported. |
Email notifications are available on the Grow and Scale plans. On Explore you will see the email column marked with a Grow+ badge and an upgrade link. In-app notifications are available on every plan, and so is push: unlike email, push notifications carry no tier gate at all.
Choose what notifies you
Open Settings and go to Notifications. The Notification channels card lists your event categories, each with an in-app toggle and an email toggle. Toggling a category sets every event inside it at once.
The categories you see depend on how you use VEXORS, and may include:
- Bid Events, your bidding activity as a supplier
- Request Events, bids and updates on your requests as a buyer
- Service Offers exchanged between you and counterparties
- Approval Events waiting on you or decided
- Deadline Alerts as request deadlines approach
- Team Events such as invitations, joins, and role changes
- Profile Nudges about gaps and Trust Score changes
- Messages & Chat alerts for messages and mentions
- Catalog updates about your catalog items
- AI scoring updates when scores are ready or go stale
- System Announcements for product updates and maintenance
To fine-tune a single event rather than a whole category, select a category to expand it. You can then switch an individual event on or off, and a Reset to category default link returns it to the category setting whenever you want.
Some alerts are always sent
Account-security, registration, and billing emails are always delivered and cannot be turned off. They keep your account safe and your billing transparent. You can see these listed under Always sent on the page.
Developer: webhooks
Scale Below the notification channels, a Developer group holds the webhook card. This lets you push VEXORS events to your own systems in real time instead of relying on in-app or email alerts:
- Set an HTTPS endpoint URL for VEXORS to call.
- Generate and rotate a signing secret, used to verify the
X-Vexors-Signatureheader on every delivery so you can trust the payload came from VEXORS. - Send a test event to confirm your endpoint is wired up correctly before relying on it.
- Review a recent deliveries log showing each attempt's event, state, status code, and duration.
- Choose per-event subscriptions so you only receive the events you actually want, such as
bid_submittedorbid_awarded.
This card is only available on Scale. On Grow and Explore it shows an upgrade prompt in its place.
Control your weekly report summary
The Weekly report digest is a Monday email summarising your company's procurement activity for the past week. It is available on the Grow and Scale plans.
The personal toggle, Email me my copy, controls whether you receive the summary. If you are a company admin, you will also see a company-wide master switch, Send the weekly report to your team. When that master switch is off, no one on the team receives the report, regardless of their personal setting. When it is on, each member receives a copy only if they keep their own toggle enabled.
Save your changes
Notification changes are not live until you save them. After adjusting your toggles, select Save preferences in the page header. A banner reminds you while you have unsaved changes, and the button confirms once your preferences are stored.
A good starting point: keep in-app alerts on for everything, and reserve email for the categories that need your attention when you are away, such as Approval Events and Deadline Alerts. You can always widen it later.
