Remote online notarization service provides instant access
to notaries
SAN
FRANCISCO, Feb. 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Docusign
(NASDAQ: DOCU) today announced the launch of Notary On-Demand, a
new remote online notarization solution that enhances security and
provides businesses and their clients 24/7 access to a network of
notaries with recognition in all 50 U.S. states.
This solution addresses a critical need in high-risk agreement
transactions, where traditional notarization remains a
time-consuming, in-person, paper-based process. With more than 1
billion documents requiring notarization annually (source:
HousingWire), businesses face significant challenges maintaining
their own notary pools as they grow - causing delays in closing
real estate deals, completing loans, finalizing estate plans, and
other critical business processes.
Identity fraud compounds these challenges.
According to new Docusign research, 69% of organizations reported
that identity fraud attempts are on the rise, and 53%
of organizations face over $1 million
in annual costs, direct or indirect, due to identity
fraud.* "By integrating Notary On-Demand into the
Docusign Intelligent Agreement Management platform, organizations
can reduce identity fraud and simplify agreements with
an all-in-one trusted solution for notarization, ID verification,
and witnessing," said Mangesh
Bhandarkar, GVP of Product Management at Docusign. "This
solution makes it easier for organizations to scale notarization
and identity verification capabilities instantly while providing
their customers with a superior experience."
Beta testers are already seeing significant improvements in
their operations. "With Docusign Notary On-Demand, we've cut the
end-to-end process for funding home equity lines of credit by 20%,
from 30 days to just 24," said Cara
McCarthy, Consumer Lending Operations Supervisor at Vantage
West Credit Union. "Members are funded faster, and they love the
ease and convenience of signing on their own schedule."
Key features of Notary On-Demand include:
- 24/7 remote notarization accepted in all 50 states via secure
audio and video technology - powered by Docusign's partnership with
OneNotary, a leading on-demand notarization company, which provides
customers with an established network of notaries
- Advanced identity verification tools including Docusign ID
Verification to enable fraud mitigation and risk
reduction
- Comprehensive audit trails and session recordings
- Seamless integration with Docusign's eSignature workflow
The service supports various document types, including power of
attorney, affidavits, lien waivers, wills and trusts, and loans.
Part of the Docusign Intelligent Management (IAM) platform, Notary
On-Demand secures notarization, identification and signatures in
one system.
Docusign now offers a comprehensive suite of notary solutions.
Whether it's in-person notarization in branch offices, first-party
notarization for organizations leveraging their own notaries, or
the convenience of Notary On-Demand available 24/7, Docusign
provides unmatched flexibility and scale with trusted security and
user satisfaction to match any customer's business situation.
