Digital signatures: a summary of all the benefits
Digitalization is becoming increasingly important. Digital signatures are indispensable. They offer a secure, efficient, and legally binding way to sign documents without physical presence. Scrive is a leading solution for digital signatures and offers numerous benefits for businesses and customers. In this blog, we list all the advantages.
What is a digital signature?
A digital signature is an electronic method to legally sign documents. Scrive makes this process simple and reliable, allowing businesses to manage their contracts and agreements entirely digitally.
Identification via the bank
An extra layer of security can be added through bank identification, such as IDIN. Here, the signer logs in via their trusted banking environment to confirm their identity. This offers an extra level of security and increases the reliability of the signing process.
Online identification
Besides bank identification, Scrive also offers other methods of online identification, such as identity document checks and biometric verification. This allows the signer to identify themselves in a secure and quick way without being physically present.
The benefits of digital signing with Scrive
Legally binding and secure
Digital signatures via Scrive comply with international regulations such as the eIDAS regulation in Europe and the ESIGN Act in the US. This means that signed documents are legally as valid as a handwritten signature. Additionally, each document is provided with an audit trail, making every step in the signing process transparent and verifiable.
Legally valid digital signing
With Scrive, documents can be signed within minutes, regardless of the signers' location. This saves time and accelerates processes such as contract negotiations, customer onboarding, and internal approvals. No more waiting for paper signatures or mail deliveries.
Cost savings
By using digital signatures, you save on print, paper, and shipping costs. Additionally, you minimize administrative burdens as manual processing and archiving of paper documents become unnecessary.
User-friendly and accessible
Scrive makes signing documents easy for all parties. Signers receive a secure link via email or SMS and can sign the document directly using their smartphone, tablet, or computer. No additional software is required, lowering the barrier for users.
Qualified digital signature
For documents requiring an additional level of legal certainty, Scrive offers qualified digital signatures (QES). These signatures are legally equivalent to a handwritten signature and are verified with strict authentication methods.
Integration with existing systems
Scrive offers seamless integrations with CRM and ERP systems such as Salesforce, Microsoft Dynamics, and HubSpot. This allows the signing process to be directly integrated into existing workflows, ensuring smooth and efficient business operations.
Environmentally friendly
By signing digitally, you contribute to a more sustainable world. Less paper consumption means less deforestation and lower CO2 emissions from paper transport and production.
