Accepting Option Grants
- After you've been granted options, and your option grant has been approved by the necessary company representatives, you will receive an email prompting you to log in and accept the grant by clicking the link provided.
- You will be brought to the "Sign Documents" step of the Accept Grant workflow, where you can accept the grant by signing the document and pressing Submit. You can also access this page by directly logging into Shoobx and clicking on the green "Sign Documents" text below the Accept Grant workflow title on the right side of your dashboard.
Depending on what state you live in, you may also have to provide your spouse's information so that they can sign a Spousal Consent. If this occurs, your spouse can also easily sign the grant in Shoobx. If your spouse does not already have a Shoobx account, you will be prompted to enter their email address and name, so they can create an account, log in, and sign the Consent.
After you have signed the grant and finished the workflow (including, if applicable, having your spouse sign the Spousal Consent), you will see your grant reflected in your "My Equity" panel on your dashboard. You can read more about "My Equity" here: Viewing Your Equity.
