How to send your first document for signature with Addo Sign

Welcome to Addo Sign. If this is your first time sending a document for electronic signature, this guide will take you through the entire process – from adding a signer to sending the finished document.

In this guide, you will learn step by step how to send your first document for electronic signature with Addo Sign.

Log in and start a new signing

Log in to your Addo Sign account to get started. When you start a new signing, the first step is to choose who should receive and sign the document.

If you are completely new to Addo Sign, it can be helpful to send a document to yourself first. This allows you to experience the entire signing process and see how it works from both the sender's and recipient's perspective.

Add a signer

Start by adding the person who needs to sign the document and enter the required information.

If you have just created an Addo Starter account, you have 10 Credits to test the solution. During the trial period, you can only send documents to yourself. You therefore only need to enter your name, while the email field is locked.

Choose an identification and signing method

Once you have added the recipient, choose how the signing should be completed. Identification and signing are closely connected, and you can select the method that best suits the document and your required level of security.

A screen signature – where the recipient signs using a finger on a mobile device or a mouse on a computer – uses one Credit.

A signature with MitID authentication provides a higher level of security and uses 1.25 Credits.

You can learn more about how Addo Sign Credits work, including how Credits are used for different signing methods.

Add the signer to the signing flow

Once you have selected the signer and signing method, add the person to the signing flow.

If several people need to sign the document, you can add the relevant signers and create a signing flow that fits your process.

Upload your documents

Next, upload the documents you want to send.

You can attach one or more documents and choose which documents require a signature and which should simply be included as attachments.

Add a message for the recipient

Before sending the document, you can add a personal message for the recipient. This is optional, as the recipient will automatically be notified that the document has been sent by you.

If you want to include a short explanation, instruction or personal message, you can add it in the message field.

Send the document for electronic signature

Once your signers, signing method and documents are ready, you can send the document for signature.

Click the button at the bottom of the page to send the document. Addo Sign will then handle the rest of the signing process automatically.

You are now ready to collect your first electronic signature with Addo Sign.
