Customize the signature experience

Learn how to choose the signature experience that fit your need

Youtrust gives you four ways to adapt the signing experience, from changing the colours and the logo to building the signing interface yourself. This page helps you pick the right one.

Two questions decide which option you need:

  1. Who renders the signing interface: Youtrust or you?
  2. How do signers reach it: through Youtrust emails, through a link, or from inside your own application?

Options available

Which option do you need?

We recommend starting from the default option: Youtrust hosts the signing interface and emails each Signer a link. From there you can choose different options:

  • You only need your brand on the signing interface: use a Custom Experience. This is the lowest-effort option, and it requires no front-end change.
  • Signers must never leave your product to sign their documents: use Embedded Signing with a Custom Experience so the embedded interface matches the page around it.
  • Your signers regularly receive many documents to sign in a short period of time. Use the Signature Portal and distribute one link through your own channels.
  • The hosted interface cannot meet a hard constraint (e.g. a physical signature pad, a native mobile app): build a Custom Signing Flow.
