    We are looking for a solution that will integrate into our existing software, will be legally binding, and is done in real time without accounts set up ahead of time. It does not work for us to send an email with the document (or a link) for the person to sign.Potentially we would be able to capture an actual signature on a mobile device (phone) be able to store and tie that to the collection of data that they are signing for (or to a electronic document), and that this would be legally binding. We do need to have multiple people be able to sign the same form in this way in the same time frame.If you are aware of any products out there that would meet or approach these needs, or if there are alternative approaches we may not have through of, we would greatly appreciate the suggestions!

    You may add signature fields in you form as this is legally binding to most countries.

    Hi Jeff,

    Thanks for using Jotform. We have great news for you. We’ve recently launched Jotform Sign, a powerful e-signature product that allows anyone to collect legally binding, E-Sign- and UETA-compliant signatures. Jotform Sign’s easy-to-use user interface and automated workflows differentiate it from other e-signature tools.

    We’ve created a short guide that explains the main aspects of Jotform Sign.

    1. Creating a Signable Document

    • Go to your My Documents page and click on Create Sign Document.
    • Next, you can upload your own document, or you can use the Demo Document to test it out.
    • Then, you can add more documents, or you can continue by clicking on the Create Signable Document button.
    • You’ll be redirected to the Jotform Sign Builder page.

    Please note that, after creating your document, you can let the system detect fillable fields automatically by clicking on the Detect Fields button, or you can manually add fields from the menu on the left after dismissing the popup message.

    2. Adding Fields Manually

    • In the Jotform Sign Builder, click on the Add Fields + button on the left side of the screen.
    • All you need to do is drag and drop elements from the menu that opens on the left into your document. Although there’s no limit to the number of elements you can add, having too many fields might negatively affect the performance of your document.

    3. Editing Fields

    • In the Jotform Sign Builder, select the related field and click on the gear icon below the field.
    • In the menu that comes up, you can make changes to the field. For example, you can change the Field Name, and you can set options based on the element you’re using.

    4. Assigning Fields

    • You can easily assign, edit, add, and delete roles just by clicking on the Assign Field To button.
    • After clicking on it, a window will open. When it does, you can make your changes.

    • Under the General Settings tab, you can edit the document’s title in the Document Title text area.
