Party Identification
Full legal names, business entity details, and signer capacity information so the party accepting obligations is unambiguous and legally identifiable for credit and tax purposes.
A properly completed Finance Select Form reduces disputes, documents customer consent to financing terms, and supports tax, audit, and regulatory workflows. Electronic completion meets federal ESIGN standards (15 U.S.C. ch.96) and most state UETA laws (1999) when intent, consent, attribution, and retention are present, but exceptions like wills and certain court filings remain inapplicable to e-signing.
The Finance Select Form is used across teams that handle customer onboarding, credit decisions, invoicing, and collections.
Organizations in real estate, healthcare billing, financial services, and legal services commonly rely on the form for accurate, auditable finance elections.
A corporate officer or authorized representative may sign for an organization. The signer should have board authorization or a delegation of signing authority; include title and capacity to bind the entity to repayment obligations.
An individual customer or guarantor signs personal finance selections. If the customer is signing on behalf of a business, the form must show the business name, signer capacity, and supporting documentation of authority.
