FAQs

Find answers to your questions about using Xodo Sign for electronic signatures and document management.

What is an electronic signature?

An electronic signature, or e-signature, is a digital way to sign documents and confirm agreements online. It replaces a handwritten signature and can be added by typing, drawing, or uploading a scanned image. E-signatures are legally valid and widely used to sign contracts, forms, and other documents quickly and securely.

Are electronic and digital signatures the same?

No. Electronic and digital signatures are not the same. An electronic signature is a general term for signing documents online using methods like typing, drawing, or clicking to accept. A digital signature is a specific type of electronic signature that uses encryption and digital certificates to verify signer identity, protect document integrity, and provide non-repudiation. Digital signatures offer stronger security and are often used in regulated industries such as healthcare, finance, and government.

What types of electronic signatures are there?

According to eIDAS there are three types of electronic signatures, each offering different levels of security and legal reassurance:

  • Simple Electronic Signatures (SES): Used for everyday agreements like accepting terms or signing forms.
  • Advanced Electronic Signatures (AES): Used for sensitive documents, AES include identity verification and tamper detection.
  • Qualified Electronic Signatures (QES): Used for high-risk documents, offer the highest level of trust, backed by digital certificates, third-party verification, and non-repudiation.

Xodo Sign currently supports the first level (SES).

Are signatures created in Xodo Sign legally binding?

Yes. Signatures created in Xodo Sign are legally binding and comply with major e-signature laws, including the ESIGN Act, UETA, and eIDAS. Each signed document includes a detailed audit trail and identity verification features that support legal enforceability across most jurisdictions.

How do I know Xodo Sign e-signatures are trustworthy?

Xodo Sign e-signatures are trustworthy because the platform uses industry-standard security measures like HTTPS encryption, unique hash keys, and tamper-evident audit trails.

What methods can I use to create my signature?

In Xodo Sign, you can create your signature in several ways:

  • Type your name using custom fonts.
  • Draw your signature with a mouse, stylus, or touchscreen.
  • Upload an image of your handwritten signature.
  • Use a saved signature from your account for faster signing.

Can I sign documents in person or remotely?

Yes. With Xodo Sign, you can sign documents remotely by sending them to recipients via email, or in person using a laptop, tablet, or mobile device. In-person signing is available on the Professional plan and lets you collect signatures directly on your screen.

Can I use e-signatures on my phone or tablet?

Yes. You can use Xodo Sign on your phone or tablet through the mobile web browser or the native Xodo mobile apps for iOS and Android. Both options let you sign, send, and manage documents with full access to core e-signature features.

How does Xodo Sign handle multi-signer workflows?

Xodo Sign lets you add multiple signers to a document and set a signing order if needed. Each signer is notified when it's their turn, and every action is tracked in a full audit trail. You can manage signer order and roles directly during document setup.

How do I make sure the correct person has signed the document?

Xodo Sign verifies each signer using their unique email address and a secure signer hash. The document signing link is sent directly to the recipient’s inbox, preventing unauthorized access. For added identity verification, you can enable Signer PIN or Signer SMS Authentication during setup.

Can recipients sign without creating an account?

Yes. With Xodo Sign, recipients can sign documents without creating an account. When you send a document for signature, they receive a secure email link that lets them review and sign directly from their browser. No login or registration required.

Can I set signing deadlines or reminders for recipients?

Yes. In Xodo Sign, you can set signing deadlines and enable automatic reminders for each document. These options are available in the Document Settings during setup. You can also manually send reminders to individual signers at any time.

What happens after a document is signed?

Once all required parties have signed a document in Xodo Sign, it is automatically marked as completed. Each signer receives a final PDF copy, and the document is stored securely in your account with a verified audit trail. You can download it, create a copy or manage it any time from your dashboard.
