Securely sign documents on behalf of others with Secured Signing’s On-Behalf Signatures. Support POA and delegated signing with full audit trails and compliance.
Keep your agreements moving forward even when the primary signer isn’t available. With Secured Signing’s new On-Behalf Signatures feature, authorized representatives can legally and securely sign documents on behalf of another individual or entity with just a few clicks.
Whether you are dealing with Power of Attorney (POA) arrangements or corporate general authorizations, we’ve made the process seamless, compliant, and fully customizable.
Secured Signing’s On-Behalf Signatures feature provides a secure, compliant way to capture these signatures within your digital signing workflow. Every signature is recorded with a complete audit trail, ensuring transparency, accountability, and legal confidence.
The On-Behalf Signatures feature allows an authorised signer to electronically sign a document on behalf of another individual (the principal).
When configuring the signing workflow, you simply add an on-behalf signer, specify the principal’s name, and choose the appropriate signing authority.
The signer is then guided through selecting the signature wording and font before completing the signing process.
Setting up an on-behalf signer is quick and intuitive. When preparing your document, simply follow these four steps:
Choose POA when the signer is acting under a legally recognised Power of Attorney.
The signature displays text indicating that the signer is acting as the Attorney-in-Fact, without displaying a handwritten signature image.
Examples include:
This option is ideal for legal, financial, healthcare, and property transactions where Power of Attorney authority must be clearly represented.
Choose General when someone is authorised to sign on another person’s behalf outside of a Power of Attorney arrangement.
In this option:
The signer’s electronic signature is included.
Signature wording clearly identifies both the principal and the authorised signer.
The signer chooses their preferred signature text and font during signing.
This option is commonly used for corporate approvals, delegated authority, administrative signing, and authorised business representatives.
Ready to Streamline Your Signing Process?
Like every signature captured through Secured Signing, On-Behalf Signatures are protected by comprehensive audit trails, secure authentication, and detailed signing records.
Whether you’re signing under a Power of Attorney or acting as an authorised representative, you can confidently complete documents while ensuring every signature accurately reflects the authority behind it.
Enable secure delegated signing with Secured Signing’s On-Behalf Signatures and simplify even the most complex approval workflows.
