Submitting Support Requests Without Registration in Zendesk

Find out how unregistered users can submit support requests in Zendesk and what this means for your support process.

Can unregistered users submit support requests in Zendesk?

Yes, Zendesk allows unregistered users to submit support requests, although they miss out on some benefits of registration. This setup is common for companies offering email-only support.

Even without registration, a user account is created for communication purposes. Unregistered users receive email notifications for their requests, but they don't get a welcome email. This approach maintains a straightforward ticket workflow for agents while keeping the help center accessible to all.
