Improve Customer Experience with Electronic Signature

Customer experience becomes a differentiator

In a world where customers have options, administrative friction is a major differentiator. A customer who must print, sign, scan and return a contract has a poor experience. A customer who signs in 3 clicks from their smartphone thinks "wow".

What makes a pleasant signing experience

• No account to create: click the link, sign, done

• Mobile-first: sign from your phone without installing an app

• Fast: 2-3 minutes maximum for the signer

• Clear: know exactly what you're signing and why

• Reassuring: well-known platform, professional design

• Instant: immediate confirmation of receipt

Measurable impact

Sector studies show:

• NPS: +10 to +15 points after moving to digital

• Conversion rate: +15 to +30% (fewer drop-offs)

• Brand image: perception of "modern and professional" on the rise

• Customer onboarding time: divided by 5

Optimal customer journey

• Customer receives an email "Your contract to sign"

• Click → document opens in browser

• Quick scroll (everything is readable without zooming)

• Click "Sign" → OTP SMS received in 5 seconds

• Enter code → confirmation

• Confirmation of receipt of signed PDF

Total: 2-3 minutes.

What to avoid

• Forcing account creation (drop-off rate +50%)

• Unreadable PDFs on mobile (80% of signatures are mobile)

• Too many validation clicks

• No explanation of the process

• Missing or inconsistent branding

Personalisation

A modern platform allows:

• notification email branded to your company

• co-branded signature page

• personalised messages per envelope

• CTA aligned with your guidelines

Result: the customer never leaves your universe.
