Home // Support // On-Behalf Signature
The new ‘On-Behalf Signatures’ feature allows you to add signers that will sign on behalf of someone else. You or the on-behalf signer can select the signature text.
The ‘On-Behalf Signatures’ feature is disabled by default. Here is how you can enable it in a standard Secured Signing account:
Here is how to enable ‘On-Behalf Signatures’ in the enterprise portal:
Once ‘On-Behalf Signatures’ is enabled, you can add one of these signatures in We Sign by clicking On-Behalf Signatures in the ‘Add Invitee’ dropdown menu.
In the pop-up that displays:
You can also add an on-behalf signer in the Add Clients / Notary page in the RON wizard:
Then you can continue to document tagging.
Once you have added the on-behalf signature to the document, you can place it and you can also change the ‘On-Behalf Signer Type’ in the ‘Settings’ dropdown, and select the default signature text. Note that the signer will be able to select different signature text when they are signing.
Two Types of On-Behalf Signatures
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.
Examples include:
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.
This option is ideal for legal, financial, healthcare, and property transactions where Power of Attorney authority must be clearly represented.
