ApproveMe’s WP E-Signature: Your Favourite WordPress Document Signature Plugin

4 min read,

Are you signing documents electronically and paying a hefty monthly fee, while not being able to customize everything you want? Don’t fear, because the team over at ApproveMe.Me has built a powerful eSignature plugin exclusively for WordPress which is actually .Me’s favorite blogging platform!

WP E-Signature is a powerful WordPress plugin that lets you get your documents signed right there they should be – on your own branded website. But before we touch upon all the possibilities that WP E-Signature gives you, let’s make sure you understand what it doesn’t have: Monthly fees.

While there are a lot of quite web apps that let you sign all the documents you want, most of them are quite expensive. ApproveMe.Me’s plugin requires a one-time fee for the plugin and an annual fee if you want to update it for your latest version of WordPress (which is recommended for security reasons you’re probably already familiar with).

How Secure Is WP-E Signature?

Not, you might be thinking: How secure is this thing if I install it on my own website? Fret not. WP E-Signature comes with SSL support, so it forces secure signing when you install a valid SSL certificate that you can get from your website host or other services.

All the signatures, fields, as well as content of your documents, will be encrypted and if a hacker ever attempts to decrypt one of your document, the system will detect it and alert all the parties associated with the document that it has probably been tampered with. Just in case.

Interestingly enough, as an added security measure, ApproveMe.Me’s plugin will never store someone else’s signature on your server as an image since that could be a huge liability. It’s exactly why it stores just mouse strokes and encrypts any signatures, without ever saving any images.

All documents that WP eSignature produces are ESIGN/UETA compliant so you know that they are legally binding, but the best thing about them is that you can create and send an UNLIMITED number of documents under your license, as well as have an unlimited number of signers on the system.

Your Private Signature Platform

Because the plugin is built 100% on top of WordPress you have complete control of the branding of your documents, especially the logo and details such as your tagline as well as custom content. Want a unique cover page? Done!

While just by itself the plugin is very powerful, the ApproveMe.Me team has built a number of plugins that makes it even more useful. Let’s try to go through just some of the more than 20 exceptional add-ons for WP eSignature: One of the simplest is WP Document Activity Notifications, which send you a notification every time a document or proposal was viewed by a client. Another useful add-on is Sign Signer Order which will make the job of people in larger organizations that much easier, by setting up the order in which signers should sign a document. CEO, CTO or member of the board? You’ll decide.

ApproveMe.Me’s WP E-Signature plugin is a standard WordPress plugin that you can buy a pro or business license for $97 to 197$. While the Pro license lets just one user use the plugin on three sites, you can get the Business license and use it for as many users and on as many websites you want. With both licenses you get 1 year of updates and support if there ever is an issue, so ApproveMe.Me has you covered.
