Set up a Delegate Signer to Sign on Your Behalf

CUSTOM PLAN FEATURE

Delegate signers may sign documents on your behalf. This tutorial will guide you through adding a delegate signer, editing a delegate signers settings, and removing a delegate signer.

Note: To add a delegate to sign on your behalf, an account administrator must enable the delegation of your account. See, Enable Delegate Signers For Team for more information.


Set up a Delegate to Sign on Your Behalf

Delegate signers allow you to anyone within your organizations account (not just your own subteam) to sign document sent to you on your behalf for a set timeframe.

Note: Delegates will not receive notifications for documents where the sender has added ID Verification as a requirement for signature. (one-time passcode sent by email or SMS)

Once delegate signing is enabled by an Admin, users will find a new section in their Profile Settings titled “Delegate Signer”. This is where you can add, edit, and remove delegate signers. Here you can view:

  1. Who you have designated as your delegate signer

  2. Who has designated you as one of their delegate signers
