Legally binding electronic signatures with full audit trails, timestamping, and signer IP capture that meet U.S. ESIGN and UETA requirements for travel contracts and guest waivers.
Send a single template to many recipients simultaneously, prefill fields from the CRM for each recipient, and collect signatures in parallel to streamline group bookings and mass waivers.
Reusable, version-controlled templates reduce manual edits for standard agreements, allow field locking for critical clauses, and speed the creation of booking confirmations and supplier contracts.
Out-of-the-box connectors with Google Workspace, cloud storage, and CRM platforms link signed documents to contact records and automate archival workflows for accounting and compliance.
Programmatic endpoints enable embedding signing flows into booking engines, automating document generation, and retrieving completed documents and audit logs for automated reconciliation.
Immutable, detailed logs capture signer actions, timestamps, and verification steps to support dispute resolution and regulatory audits for travel records.
Two-way integration enables sending documents for signature directly from Google Docs and Drive; templates and signed PDFs can be saved back to Drive while customer data is prefilled from Google Contacts when available.
signNow links document records to CRM objects, allowing signed contracts to attach to contact and opportunity records within Copper or alternate CRMs, preserving document metadata and signature audit trails for later reconciliation.
Integration with Dropbox and other cloud services ensures signed documents are archived in established folders and synchronized for accounting and compliance, reducing duplicate uploads and manual file management.
RESTful API endpoints allow travel platforms and booking engines to programmatically create documents, prefill fields, request signatures, and retrieve completed PDFs and audit logs for backend processing.

Travel teams require flexible signing on desktop, tablet, and mobile devices to capture customer consent at booking desks, on-site check-ins, and remote interactions.
Ensure operating system and browser versions are maintained and that mobile app updates are applied; verify offline workflows and synchronization behavior before field deployment to avoid lost or duplicated signature records.
A midsize tour operator needed fast, repeatable collection of waivers for 200+ participants per trip and fewer manual steps.
Resulting in a measurable reduction in pre-trip administrative time and fewer on-site signing delays.

Leading to clearer approval histories and faster booking completion for business travelers with reduced reconciliation effort.
