FAQ: Does my e-signature need to look like my pen signature?

No, it does not.

A legally binding e-signature is a form of electronic data that a person uses with the intention to sign a document. This can be a stylised font, an image of a signature, or simply a name typed into a dedicated signature field.

The key is that the system logs the signature with a timestamp and a unique audit trail, which is what gives it legal weight and makes it verifiable.

So, you don’t need to worry about trying to create a perfect replica of your pen signature.
