WP E-Signature is recognized in court. We are (UETA) and (ESIGN) compliant and adhere to some of the strictest document signing polices in the US and European unions.
Electronic Signature Security and Encryption
Security is our priority. All of your signed documents and signatures are kept hidden and encrypted on your server using a secure encryption sequence and signer specific URL. Additionally you have the option of forcing SSL security (when an SSL certificate is installed on your server) for all WP E-Signature related pages.
Signer Audit Trail & Reporting
Documents move turbo speed from signer to signer. We include a detailed audit report with viewer details, ip addresses, analytics and signer history.
Document Signing Automation
If you do business online, customers probably have to sign an agreement or an online contract. Problem is a paper agreement doesn’t hold up if your business is an online business and your customers are online customers. You can try mailing or even scanning a contract to your digital customers which costs you time and money, in the meantime you have the risk of losing your customer because of the added delay.
What you need is WP E-Signature. WP E-Signature lets you customize the signing process for what you need with no monthly fees. With a comprehensive marketplace of add-on extensions including Save as PDF, Dropbox Sync, Signer Input Fields, and dozens more which make it easy to automate and customize your document signing process.
WP E-Signature works with any WordPress website, including the default WordPress themes. If you need help installing WP E-Signature check out our getting started docs and start signing documents using your WordPress website. Looking to get WordPress Proposals signed? We got you covered!
If you’re looking for a tailored WordPress eSigning integration or add-on designed specifically to be used for your document signing needs be sure to browse the official WP E-Signature Premium add-ons which come with a license. If you don’t see the integrations you need… let us know.
You could also use a third party document signing service but they charge monthly fees and what’s worst, your customers are forced to create an account on an unrelated website just to sign your companies documents.

FAQ
With ApproveMe’s WooCommerce Digital Signature plugin, along with a WP E-Signature license you can easily collect UETA/ESIGN compliant signatures from your customers before they complete their WooCommerce checkout.
international document signing guidelines. Do the smart thing and don’t get caught in a courtroom with a document that isn’t legally binding.
Yes, electronic digital signatures are legally binding in the United States and many countries around the world. United States in the US there are two digital signature Acts that established the legality of digital signatures in the US – the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (ESIGN, 2000) and the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA, 1999). Both the ESIGN and UETA establish that electronic records and signatures carry the same weight and legal effect as traditional paper documents and handwritten signatures, they say “A document or signature cannot be denied legal effect or enforceability solely because it is in electronic form.” The ApproveMe WP E-Signaturen is UETA/ESIGN compliant.
United Kingdom
In the UK, similar legislation to the ESIGN Act in the USA was likewise settled in 2000, and is known as the UK Electronic Communication Act. Approve Me is the main WordPress Plugin to Sign Contracts that warrants its e-signature solution to be consistent with this act.
European Union
The appropriation of the European Directive 1999/93/EC of 13 December 1999 established a the utilization of electronic marks on electronic and digital contracts inside of the European Union (EU). Thirty European nations (EU-27, Croatia, Turkey and Liechtenstein) have officially adopted Directive 1999/93/EC. To that end Electronic and Digital marks are effectively being used in Europe, and ApproveMe’s compliant WP E-Signature plugin is legitimately acceptable and enforceable within the European Union.
Yes you will. Each license key is valid for one calendar year from the purchase date. An active license key is needed for access to automatic/critical updates, plugin support and access to our growing e-signature add-on library.
If you’ve already purchased a license key and need to retrieve the license number, you can do that on the support site here or follow these detailed steps. Once you’ve successfully logged into the support site (using the credentials emailed to you at the time of purchase), your active license key(s) will be listed at the bottom of the page.

The Lifetime Plan does not have a renewal cost. It is a one-time payment for the WP e-signature plugin. However all other plans have an annual renewal. Our goal has always been to pull the price back as much as we possibly can so small businesses and freelancers could sign documents electronically using their WordPress website (and save alot of money in the process). Not only is our plugin the most powerful of its kind, it’s also the most affordable. Not to throw anyone under the bus, but look at what our competitors charge every single year:
Adobe charges $1,080 / yr (per 3 users)
Docusign charges $1,440 / yr (per 3 users)
Not charing for renewals would actually hurt the product as we would not be able to invest as heavily as we currently do back into it…
Renewing your license provides an additional year of support and software updates. This provides peace of mind knowing you can turn to us for WP Electronic Signature related support and assistance. You’ll also continue receiving software updates to ensure WordPress compatibility (and security) as well as great new features and enhancements! Also (depending on your license) as we release new basic and premium add-ons you will be able download these at anytime.
