Electronically signing financial documents can save your organization time and resources. Manual paperwork can be a long and tedious process of creating, printing, signing, and sending documents.

Simply upload a document, add signature fields, and share the file with partners, clients, or staff for eSignature. No matter what commercial document is eSigned (invoice, order, shipment contract, etc.), it has the same legal effect as a handwritten one.

Who can sign documents electronically?

It’s not just banks and large financial institutions that can benefit from signing documents online. From a small bakery to a multinational corporation, any business can adopt eSignature and optimize its routine workflows. Sign VAT Invoices, contractor agreements, and other documents online and see how digitalization of your document workflows will enhance your business’s operational efficiency.

Which financial documents can be signed electronically?

The ESIGN Act was passed in 2000, making handling documents easier, quicker, and more cost-efficient than paper-based document management. Since then, millions of enterprises have switched to electronic documents and eSignature. An electronic signature is valid for most document types, allowing you to sign loan agreements, money transfer agreements, accounting contracts, and many other commercial documents online. As long as you sign those documents using compliant eSignature services that hold all necessary certifications, they have the same legal effect as those signed with handwritten signatures.
