Editor update notice
We are gradually rolling out a redesigned PandaDoc editor to our users.
If your editor looks different, refer to New PandaDoc editor article.
This article explains where to find fields, recipients, variables, formatting, and other relocated tools in the new layout.
Letting your recipients sign a PandaDoc document in person on your device is easy!
To collect a signature in person, simply open the document in the PandaDoc mobile app, or open PandaDoc in a desktop or mobile browser. Then, select Sign in person and pass your device to the signer.
Note: In-person signers are not required to have an email address or phone number. The signing certificate will display the name and email of the host for in-person signers.
Here’s how to set up in-person signing:
Enable In-person signing in Extensions
If you’re using the PandaDoc mobile app, log in and make sure there is at least one signer (other than you) and the document you’d like to have signed is in sent or viewed status
If you’re using a desktop or mobile browser, make sure there is at least one signer (other than you) and the document you’d like to have signed is in draft, sent, or viewed status
How to sign in person in the mobile app
Open your document (in sent or viewed status) in the PandaDoc mobile app, then click Sign in person
Choose the recipient to sign the document, then tap Next
Pass the device to the signer and ask them to tap Start signing
The signer will fill out all fields assigned to them, then tap Finish to complete the signing process
Once the first participant finishes signing, you can tap Next to choose the next participant to sign in person.
When the last signer is finished, a screen will appear notifying you that the document has been completed by all participants.
How to sign in person using a desktop or mobile browser
If you’re working with a document in draft or sent status, first open it, then select the dropdown option to the right of the Review and send button, then Sign in person.
If you’re working with a document in sent or viewed status, choose the Sign in person option in the right-hand panel.
Choose the recipient to sign the document, then tap Confirm.
Pass the device to the signer and ask them to tap Start signing.
The signer will fill out all fields assigned to them, then tap Finish to complete the signing process.
If your document requires more than one signer, the screen will automatically update, and you can select the next in-person signer.
You can always change the signer by clicking Change signer at the top of the screen. If you’d like to leave in-person signing mode, click or tap the button in the top right. All filled fields (including signatures) will be saved.
