In-person signing

Guide customers through electronic signing in person

Support an assisted signing journey on a shared or controlled device. Use a valid host or operator context, track the session and keep completed records connected to the agreement workflow.

Confirm the applicable plan, role, permissions and configuration before rollout.

Where host-guided signing fits

Choose this approach when a staff member helps the signer complete a document during an interaction.

Counters and branches

Plan a guided signing step for a customer who is already working with your staff at a service counter or branch.

Field and inspection teams

Organize assisted signing during an on-site visit, inspection or field appointment using a controlled device.

Clinics, events and dealerships

Build a repeatable assisted journey around the document and the people responsible for that interaction.

Plan the complete signing session

  1. Confirm the approved document, host or operator context and permissions before document visibility.
  2. Guide the signer through the intended signing flow and review the session's activity and status.
  3. Check completion and link the resulting agreement to Agreement Workspace.
  4. Handle completed documents and audit trails through the controlled export process where configured.

Decide who manages incomplete sessions, who can access completed records and how staff prepare the shared device for the next interaction.

Choose the right entry point

Host-guided interaction

Use in-person signing when an operator assists the signer on a shared or controlled device.

Define identity requirements. A shared device or host-guided session does not automatically establish every identity or legal requirement. Confirm the controls appropriate to your document and account configuration with the responsible reviewers.

In-person signing questions

What is in-person electronic signing?

In-person signing is a host-guided signing workflow on a shared or controlled device. A valid host or operator context is required before document visibility, and session activity and status can be tracked.

How is in-person signing different from a self-service link?

In-person signing is guided by a host or operator. A self-service link lets a signer initiate an eligible template or workflow. Choose the flow that fits how your staff and signers will participate.

Does using a shared device verify a signer automatically?

No. Do not treat the device or the presence of a host as proof that every identity requirement has been met. Confirm the identity and evidence controls required for your workflow and account configuration.

How do I choose access for my team?

Compare current plans and discuss your intended workflow with eSignly. Availability depends on the applicable plan, account role, permissions and configuration. Confirm access before rolling out the process.
