What would you do if you found out the contracts you use to run and operate your business were not legally binding?
What if you and your client were in a courtroom only to find out that the digital signature used on your contract was not signed with a compliant e-signature application?
The legal industry is a highly regulated industry that has strict laws and regulations around the electronic signature and digital signature submission process.
How is this Signature Add-On different than the Gravity Forms Signature Add-on by Rocket Genius?
WordPress Form Plugins like Gravity Forms are absolutely fantastic! You can create some amazing and incredible WordPress workflows using their powerful WordPress Forms plugin; However, signing a legally binding contract is NOT Gravity Forms main focus (it is WP E-Signature’s SOLE focus). We have spent years developing a platform that adheres to the strict UETA and ESIGN national and international document signing guidelines.
Most WordPress contract plugins and signature add-ons out there are not legally binding let alone UETA/ESIGN compliant (they do not adhere to the strict laws and regulations in the document singing industry). These typical signature add-ons, only “capture signature information as it is drawn and sends data to your web server where this information is converted into a PNG image and stored on your server.”
This method, exposes you and your signers legal signature on the ftp server where your WordPress website lives. In other words the png files most signature add-ons generate, of your client’s hand drawn legal signature (the same signature which is used to buy a house, apply for a credit card, take out a business loan) is available to ANY ftp intruder; putting both you and your signer at high risk for identity theft.
This Signature Plugin fills in the gap by making the e-signature process compliant with UETA/ESIGN regulations.
The new signature add-on by Approve Me is the bridge between a form generation plugin and having a UETA / ESIGN compliant document signing application that lives on your WordPress website.
Watch the video above to see how you can save time and money by completely automating contracts for your web design, photography, consulting or freelance business using our Signature Add-On for Gravity Forms.
