Acceptance of a Document for Signing – Unregistered Users

Delivery of a New Document for Signing

Your first encounter with Signi might look like this. Someone already using Signi has easily prepared a document for signing, and you now need to sign as the counterparty.

Here a message that looks like this will be sent to your email address:

 

If the company that sent you the document for signing uses application branding (i.e. a customized appearance for Signi), their logo will appear instead of the Signi.com logo. The button colors can differ as well.

Click the link under the Show Contract button. This redirects you to the following screen:

 

Use the controls here to show the given document or reject it.

To view the document and to sign it if appropriate, first open it by clicking on Show Document.

You may be called to confirm that the data used in the given document, which the proposing counterparty has filled into its document header, is correct before you can display and sign the document.

This concerns the following data items:

  • Name

  • Surname

  • Birth date

  • Street name and number

  • City

  • Zip code

Now save the header. You will be redirected to the document’s final preview. Study it carefully and decide whether to sign it.

The steps for signing are simple.

  • Either click the link in the yellow field, which moves you to the place for signing:

 

 

  • or click the Sign button directly:

 

 

You will be redirected again – this time to 2FA verification. Here, enter your phone number, and then we’ll send that number a verification PIN code.

The phone number may already have been filled in by the contract’s Proposer.

 

 

We’ll send that number an SMS in the following format:

 

 

At the same time you will be called to fill in this code. If the code does not reach you, you can have it re-sent. You can also change your phone number.

 

 

Once the PIN is entered correctly, you are redirected to the signature field. You can sign using your finger or a stylus, or the touchpad on your laptop. If you are dissatisfied with the signature you’ve produced, delete it and start again.

If the document’s place and date have not already been filled in, you will be called to provide these as well during signing:

 

 

Once the place, the date and your signature are filled in, confirm the addition of your signature by clicking Sign.

 

 

The final screen then notifies you that the process has completed successfully. We have sent the document with your signature to the counterparty, and naturally we have a copy for you as well. Check your email to see it. It can be downloaded as a PDF. To keep on digitally signing documents in the future, go ahead and register at Signi.com. Your first three signatures are free.
