Transaction settings
Default transaction options
Here you manage the settings that are used as default when you create a new transaction.
Enable authentication: Authentication helps to identify signers before viewing the document.
Send sign request in order: We will send out the invitations to signers one by one.
Send sign request invitation by email: When turned on we will send the sign request link by email.
Seal documents by default: A digital stamp guarantees the authenticity of the document. Are signers added to a transaction? Then it is not necessary to seal the document as well.
Add document as email attachment: After all parties have signed, a confirmation email is sent with a link and attached PDF of the signed document.
Invitation preferences: When creating a new transaction these fields will be pre-filled
Email subject
Message
Transaction validity: Choose a duration between 1-90 days. After this period, the transaction expires and associated documents are deleted.
Reminder interval: Frequency of reminder emails sent until the transaction is signed or expired. The reminder interval in days can not be longer than the transaction validity.
Intro message: This message will be shown directly after opening the sign request hyperlink. The signer will see this text before they review the document(s).
Return URL: The return URL where signatories will be directed to after finishing the signing process. This allows you to set up your personal landing page where signers end up after signing.
Default signer options
Here you manage settings that determine how a signer is added by default within a transaction.
Default authentication methods: Select your preferred authentication method; it will be automatically set when creating new transactions.
Default verification methods: Select your preferred verification method; it will be automatically set when creating new transactions.
Signer language: Determine the language in which the fixed parts of the invitation email are sent to the signer.
Signer delegation: Allows a signer to designate another person to complete the signing process.
Note: Enabling signer delegation restricts certain identification methods so that the signer can delegate to a different signer.
