E-signatures and audit trail

Clients sign contracts in Raoura by typing their name on a branded page, and every signing is recorded with an audit trail.

How signing works#

1. You send the contract link (or the client finds it in their portal under "Needs your attention").
2. The client opens the branded contract page and reads it.
3. They sign electronically by typing their name. No account, app, or printer needed.

What gets recorded#

• Views: you can see when the client viewed the contract.
• Signature: you can see when they signed.
• Audit trail: an audit trail is recorded with each signing.

Turn on activity notifications (Settings, Account, Preferences) to get an email the moment a client signs.

Are e-signatures legally binding?#

Electronic signatures are widely recognized, but their validity depends on your jurisdiction and the type of document. Raoura records an audit trail with each signing to support you. For high-stakes contracts, confirm that e-signing is appropriate where you operate.

Proposals sign the same way#

Accepting a proposal works on the same principle: the client accepts by typing their name, and if you set a deposit they pay it at the same moment.
