What it does

Many businesses still print contracts, wait for signatures, scan them and file them by hand. This plugin moves that work onto your WordPress site. You prepare a document, add smart fields, signature boxes and other inputs directly in it, and signers complete everything in one place. The plugin is built around eSignature laws including eIDAS and UETA, and it keeps audit trails and signature logs of every signature and action, which gives you a clear record of who signed what.

It works for one-off agreements and for repeatable workflows. You can save reusable templates for recurring contracts, collect signatures from multiple parties, and use Gravity Forms or other form plugins to fill in and send personalized contracts automatically. A Zapier connection lets you pass signed documents and events to other apps, such as cloud storage or team notifications. You can also brand the email templates and the signing page, and an onboarding wizard helps new sites get started.

Best for

Freelancers sending client contracts and service agreements
