Question
Is an online Prozbul considered preferable?
Answer
According to the instructions of our teacher, Rabbi Fried, as outlined in the Prozbul instructions on this site: the preferred method is to perform a Prozbul in person before the judges. However, for those who do not have this option or do not have time to approach the judges, a Prozbul can be done on the site, and it is considered valid.

Machaneh Ephraim (Shluchim, sec. 7), Beit Meir (Even HaEzer, sec. 120, s. 4), Noda BiYehuda (Tinyana, sec. 147), that it is beneficial to appoint an agent. There are dissenting opinions. If the sender is definitively identified, it is effective by his handwriting.
