Frequently asked questions

Does the signer need an account or the app?

No. Signing happens through a secure link in the browser.

Is the signature legally valid?

An ordinary electronic signature can be valid for many agreements, but it depends on the document. This is not legal advice; check when in doubt.

Can I sign myself without a request?

Yes. You place your own signature directly in the PDF and export the file.
