The documents of everyday commerce

From restocking the shelves to opening a new location: what stores, chains and distributors send for signature most.

Supply agreements

Price, delivery windows and restocking terms agreed with each supplier become a signed contract before the first order.

Franchise agreements

The franchise disclosure goes out first and, once the legally required waiting period has run, the definitive agreement goes out for signature: each step in its own envelope, with its own delivery evidence.

Exchange and warranty terms

The customer signs the form at the exchange or product pickup, and the store keeps who authorized it, when and under which conditions.

B2B commercial agreements

Corporate sales, volume pricing tables, reseller partnerships: agreements between companies close without paper going around by courier.

Sales representative agreements

Whoever represents the brand signs commission, territory and targets before going into the field. The termination, when it comes, is documented just the same.

Store credit accounts

The customer fills in their own details in the store credit agreement, and the shop gets the complete account record along with the signature, no paper form.

A B2B order, from proposal to ERP

The path of a corporate sale inside Signater, in the order it happens.

  1. The approved proposal becomes an envelope

    Closed the deal with a corporate customer? The contract goes into an envelope with sequential signing order and validations set per signer.

  2. The buyer signs from their phone

    They receive the link, review the document on their phone and confirm their identity with the code sent by SMS. Nothing to install.

  3. Guarantor and store finish in sequence

    As soon as the buyer is done, the guarantor is released; after them, whoever answers for the store signs and the envelope completes with the full certificate of completion.

  4. The webhook notifies your ERP

    The completion event reaches your system as a POST the moment it happens, and the order moves to invoicing without anyone watching an inbox.

How webhooks work is detailed on the feature page.

Identity validated before releasing the order

Factors configured per signer, on the channel the customer already uses. Every recorded validation becomes evidence in the envelope's certificate of completion.

Code by SMS

The confirmation code reaches the signer's phone as a text message, with routing across multiple providers. Simple for the customer, recorded for the store.

Code by email

A 6-digit code lands in the customer's inbox and is required at signing time, no new app and no account to create.

Selfie with liveness detection

For store credit and higher amounts, the signer takes a selfie with liveness detection at the moment of signing, and the image enters the certificate of completion as evidence.

The seven available factors, from a code by email to the A1 digital certificate, are on the Identity validation page

What sustains this flow, feature by feature: each card leads to the full page, with how it works in detail.

Built to integrate

An approved order triggers the contract through the API; the signed confirmation comes back by webhook to your ERP.

Frequently asked questions

Can my customer sign from their phone, without an app?

Yes. The invitation arrives as a link by SMS or email, and the confirmation code can also be sent by SMS. The customer opens the document on their phone, types the code and signs, without installing an app.

Can I integrate it with my store's ERP?

Yes, with any system via the REST API: your ERP creates the envelope, publishes it and checks its status through HTTP calls. Webhooks complete the cycle by notifying your system when the envelope is published, signed or declined, with automatic retries when delivery fails.

I have more than one store. Do I need an account for each?

No. Users are unlimited, so each store can have its own team inside the same account. To keep documents separate, create a group vault per store: group members see that vault's documents, and whoever is outside has no access.

Can I set the order in which buyer and guarantor sign?

Yes. In sequential order, each signer is released when the previous one finishes: the buyer signs first, then the guarantor and finally whoever answers for the store. If order does not matter, the parallel flow sends the invitation to everyone at once.

Is an electronically signed sales contract legally valid?

Yes. Electronic signature laws such as the U.S. ESIGN Act and UETA make electronic signatures legally binding, and the EU's eIDAS regulation recognizes them across Europe. Signater produces an advanced electronic signature based on a digital certificate, in the PAdES standard. In a dispute or collection, the certificate of completion gathers the evidence of who signed, when and with which validations.

Does a 3-year supply contract stay valid down the road?

Yes: with long-term validation, the signature stays verifiable years later, even after certificates expire. That's LTV, included in the Business and Enterprise plans.

Can a field rep close the deal right at the customer's store?

They can: the contract goes out on the phone, the shop owner signs on the spot with the code they receive and, if you turn it on, geolocation records where the signature happened.
