  • How it works

    At the point of signing a sales contract, a web form, or any other type of document, your website simply redirects the visitor to SigningHub for adding their signature.

  • Your users see a consistent look & feel on the web-site because the signing page retains your branding. This same technique is used by many e-commerce payment gateways to handle online credit card payment processing. The SigningHub web service allows your website to create user accounts, log users in automatically and enables them to review and sign documents. All of this is done at the click of a button as far as the user is concerned! Your customers, employees, suppliers and partners can now easily sign contracts, forms, board papers, personnel and compliance documents – anything that requires a hand-signature backed-up with a strong PKI digital signature - all from your existing website! There is no need to ask them to sign-up anywhere else.

  • Features
    • A REST based web service interface to SigningHub functionality
    • Create advanced long-term digital signatures (PDF Signatures, ISO 32000-1 and ETSI PAdES)
    • Digitally sign using locally-held keys on a smartcard/USB tokens, or even simpler user server-held signing keys (with automated user registration and certification)
    • PDF and PDF/A documents can be signed
    • Use various doc formats (PDF, DOC, DOCX, RTF, PPT, PPTX, XLS, XLSX, ODS, ODT, SXW, TSV, TXT, CSV). These are converted to PDF automatically before signing for extra security.
    • Assign form fields that users must fill-in before signing
    • Allow user to create dynamic e-signatures drawn with mouse or finger on iPad or scrip-based text e-signatures or scanned e-signature images
    • Configurable legal notice which can be shown to users before e-signing
    • Ability to promote your own branding
    • Automatic redirect to your website once e-signing is complete
  • Integration Options

    Integrating SigningHub into your website can achieved in just a couple of hours, we provide plenty of code snippets and sample demo pages in our web services documentation. If required you can also integrate SigningHub using widgets and iframes, as well as running the SigningHub solution in-house for complete control. Contact us for more details.

    There are two integration use cases:
    1. Integration within your website:
      You want to redirect your website users to SigningHub for digitally signing documents. You don’t want users to access the full features of SigningHub, but only to sign the documents and then automatically return to your website.
    2. Integration within your website

      You must set your redirect information inside my desk > options > my integrations section. This allows you to set the required web page header, footer of the web page, call back URL, legal notice to be shown at signing time and much more.
    3. Integration with your business application:
      You have a business application and want to integrate with SigningHub to initiate document signing workflows, programmatically create user accounts on SigningHub and/or perform other enterprise tasks through the API. With this option your users will interact directly with SigningHub once it’s their turn to sign the document, rather than interfacing with your website and then being redirecting. Furthermore users will have full control of their user account on SigningHub, learn more.
