Announcements (1)

Blend Insurance Agency Partnering with Covered Insurance

Blend Insurance Agency is entering into a strategic partnership with Covered Insurance, a national insurance agency focused on embedded insurance in the mortgage and real estate space. This partnership will benefit borrowers and lenders by increasing the number of available insurance carrier options from 36 to 55 and providing more choice and value for borrowers. Operationally the agency and insurance team remains the same, however the Blend Insurance Agency fulfillment team will transition to become Covered employees and future communications including email addresses will reflect that change. For lenders with HOI enabled, this means the same agents and customer service representatives will continue serving your customers, ensuring seamless, uninterrupted service.
 

Maintenance Announcements (2)

Scheduled Maintenance 

We are doing scheduled maintenance during regularly scheduled maintenance hours. There will be no downtime associated with this maintenance and there will not be a maintenance page. 

  • 9/24/24, 12am - 2am PST for PROD

     

(Update) OneSpan eSign Provider Maintenance

Update 9/16: The dates for the remaining maintenance windows have been updated to accurately reflect OneSpan’s schedule. 

One of Blend’s eSign vendors, OneSpan, has announced recurring downtime for maintenance. These downtimes will result in periods where lender and borrower users will not be able to create new eSign envelopes or sign outstanding envelopes. 

Existing eSign tasks will be able to be reopened once maintenance is over.

Failed creation of disclosures, closings, or other eSign tasks will not automatically be retried. Users will need to re-attempt creating or issuing eSign tasks.

Will there be a maintenance page during this time? 

No.
