What does a free signature request include?

A signature request refers to the entire transaction of preparing and sending one or more documents to be electronically signed by one or more signers, then receiving the signed document(s). As long as you send the document(s) to the signer(s) in a single bundle, it counts as only one signature request.

Note: Bulk sends are different in that the document(s) is sent to and signed by many signers through the use of a comma-separated values (CSV) file. Bulk sends are available on our Standard and Premium plans.

Is the audit trail free too?

Yes. When your signature request is completed, you’ll receive a PDF of the signed document(s) plus an audit trail. Self-signed documents—documents signed using the Just Me option—don't include an audit trail since you’re the only signer.

Note: If you need to confirm the status of a request before you receive the audit trail, you can check it in your Documents section.
