How to send documents for eSignature
Organizations and remote workers often go through many manual paper-based
steps to get a signature from clients, partners, and other associates on
agreements and contracts. This way, the signer receives, prints, and signs
the document, scans or photographs it, creates a PDF, and emails it back.
But there’s a better, faster way. Try a signNow’s trusted eSignature solution
for creating, signing, sharing, and collecting eSigned documents remotely.
Embedding the eSignature into your workflow with signNow is easy. We’ve put
together some questions to help you manage your eSignature business processes
more efficiently.
How to collect payments online
signNow is integrated with two online payment solutions — Payeezy and Stripe.
To choose Payeezy, all you have to do is copy and paste two lines from one
account to another. If you prefer Stripe, connecting your account to signNow
is just as fast and easy. Find more information on our website or in the Help
Center. Keep your documents and payments secure and in one place with signNow.
How to sign a document with signNow
If you’ve been asked to sign a document electronically, you can create an eSignature and
customize
it on virtually any device with signNow. Thanks to the intuitive Signature Wizard, it only takes
a few seconds to create a unique signature: type, draw, or upload a photo of your handwritten
signature. Save the one you like most and reuse it later as many times as you need.
How to set multiple recipients
If you need to share a document, such as a questionnaire or a survey, with many
recipients, you can use signNow. First, you need to create a document template.
Then, select the template you created, click the Create Signing Link button on
the template itself, or go to the More menu. The pop-up menu window will give you
a link to share with anyone. signNow features allow you to create and submit
signature forms in a smooth, painless eSignature workflow.
How to make a document signable online
With signNow, you can quickly create a signable document, saving it
as a standard PDF file to open on any OS, self-sign it, and send it
out for signing. All you need to do is upload the form to your signNow
account and drag-and-drop a Signature field. When the signer clicks
on this field, a pop-up window opens where the user can quickly create
his unique legally-binding eSignature and sign
the document anytime, anywhere, from any device.
What is a shared Signature Link?
A signNow Signing Link is a generated link that you can copy and share
(email, direct messages, blogs, websites, etc.) with any number of signers.
Recipients click the link to open the document on any device and sign it in a couple of clicks.
Signed copies will appear in your account. You’ll also receive an email notification.
How to attach a file to a document
If you need additional attachments together with a signed contract or another form, you can use
signNow’s advanced Request Attachments feature. Open the required template in your account or
create a new one; the required tool can be found in the left-side toolbar. Place the smart field
anywhere on the page and specify the type of attachment you need. Add a Signature field, and
it’s ready to go.
How to send a Bulk Invite
signNow’s Bulk Invite feature automates the sending of contracts and forms to many people at the
same time. First of all, you need an Excel spreadsheet with a list of signers’ emails saved in
SVC format. Find the bulk sending feature in the More menu. All listed contacts will receive a
unique link to sign the document. No need to enter numerous emails manually.
How to collect signatures online
With signNow, you get the best functionality to quickly and securely collect signed documents on
any device, with just a few simple clicks. Upload a form, edit it online, and send it for
signature. Recipients can then sign them without even having a signNow account. Easily and
securely collect legally-binding electronic signatures from anyone, anywhere.
Can I send a reminder to sign a document in signNow?
Using signNow’s advanced features, you can set a reminder so that your
recipient never forgets to sign the document you sent them. After editing
the form, when it’s time to add signers, click Advanced Options. You need
the Set Reminders section. Specify the number of days you want the recipient
to receive the reminder in their email. And for you, automatic reminders,
real-time updates, and notifications mean that
you can easily control and monitor how your documents are signed.
How to set an expiration date for a document
By setting an expiration date and adding reminders, you can make sure your document is signed on
time. The Advanced Options feature allows you to set a document expiration date and extend it if
necessary (the default expiration date is 30 days). When adding signers, go to Advanced Options
and specify the desired period (up to 180 days). Use eSignature capabilities on your own terms,
wherever and whenever you need.
