3 mins read

BoldSign makes it easy to send a single document to multiple recipients for signature, including yourself. This is particularly helpful when several people, including the sender, need to sign the same document.

Follow the steps below to add multiple recipients for a signature request:

  • Click on Create New, go to Create New Document, and you will be directed to the Prepare Document for Signing page.
  • Upload your files in the Add files section and enter the recipients’ details.
  • Next, add your information in the Add Recipients section. You can either enter your details manually or simply click the Add Me button.

  • Then click Next to go to the Configure Fields page.

  • Choose a recipient from the dropdown, then drag and drop the required form field onto the document.
  • When you drag and drop a form field onto the document, the Field Settings page will appear on the right, allowing you to customize the field according to your needs and preferences.

  • You can also select other recipients and add form fields for them in the same way.
  • Then click the Send button to send the document for signature.

  • Select your preferred response to proceed.

You can add yourself as a recipient in the document workflow; however, self-signing is not available during the document creation process. The document must be sent first. Once sent, you will receive a signing link just like any other recipient, and you can complete your signing from there.

Sign the document

If you are a recipient of a signature request, you will be notified via email and given the opportunity to sign the document digitally. It is not necessary for the signer to have a BoldSign account in order to complete the signing process. There are three ways to sign a document as a recipient:

  1. Sign during the document creation process.
  2. Follow the link in the notification email to access the document and sign it directly from your email inbox.
  3. Log in to the BoldSign application and sign the document from there.

Sign during the document creation process

You can sign the document immediately after the document creation process.

  • Once you have uploaded your document, set the appropriate form fields you are to click send button.
