The most asked questions about e-signing

We put together the most commonly asked questions concerning electronic signatures, and short and simple answers, with pointers to more resources. If you’re curious about the benefits, legality, and implementation of electronic signatures, you’ve come to the right place.

Electronic signature FAQ

  • What is an electronic signature?

    An electronic signature is created when the signatory to an agreement in electronic format clicks to agree to the terms presented in the document. Creating a hand-drawn signature with a mouse or touch screen is optional but not required for the agreement to be legally binding.

    By implementing e-signatures into a business workflow you can send, sign and manage agreements at any time and place, on any device – thereby eliminating the time-consuming process of sending paper documents back and forth between parties.

  • Are electronic signatures legally binding?

    For 99.99 % of all documents – yes!

    In reality, this is actually three questions in one: 1) Are e-signatures legally binding? 2) How do I prove the identity of the signing parties? and 3) What evidence can I show later?

    From a legal perspective, e-signatures can actually be stronger than traditional pen and paper signatures. Learn more about the legal aspects of e-signatures

  • Can we integrate electronic signatures into our existing business systems?

    Yes!

    E-sign solutions can be integrated into your native systems, and there are countless ready-to-use e-sign apps for many of today’s most trusted and commonly-used business platforms, including HR, contract management, CRM, legal tech and recruitment.

  • What kind of agreements can you sign electronically?

    Sales contracts, employment agreements, bank authorisations, finance agreements, rental contracts, NDAs, consent forms and service orders are just a few examples. Whatever the kind of agreement, Scrive’s secure solutions meet the relevant requirements under electronic signature, data protection and AML (Anti Money Laundering) regulations. In addition, all signed documents include world-class evidence materials.

  • What is the cost of electronic signatures?

    Less than paper!

    If you compare e-signing to traditional pen and paper signing purely in terms of operational efficiency, there’s no comparison. If you only take into account printing and mailing costs, e-signing is still cheaper.
