Features

Just like a traditional signature on paper, a electronic signature can serve many purposes, such as:

• securing documents and transactions: the signature guarantees the authenticity and integrity of the signed data
• increasing process efficiency: the signature promotes transparency in business transactions
• creating legal evidence: the qualified electronic signature provides irrefutable proof of declarations of intent or commitments made by the signatory or signatories

An electronic signature can fulfil other roles, such as:

• following a ceremony: helps prevent parties from making ill-considered commitments
• providing an implicit or explicit declaration of intent: helps prevent the signatory from later on disputing his or her intentions at the time of signing
• having a particular authority or role: helps prevent unauthorised signatures

The Certipost e-Signing allow you to place electronic signatures on important documents in a legally valid way, making them admissible as legal evidence.

Formulas

Certipost offers e-Signing in two combinable formats:

• e-Signing Integrated (CEI)
  CEI is an interactive signature method, whereby a person manually creates a signature.


• e-Signing Automated (CEA)
  CEA is an automated method whereby a system (server) signs documents in bulk. This is the ideal formula for businesses that require large volumes of documents to be signed by one or a small number of persons or legal entities.
