> Low-cost e-signature app and API from Syncfusion

BoldSign sends contracts for e-signature by email, SMS or WhatsApp, with signer authentication, reminders, templates and a downloadable audit trail.

## Ways to pay less

- **Save 40% with yearly billing** (Annual discount): BoldSign's pricing page marks yearly billing as 40% off: Business is $15 per user a month billed yearly against $25 monthly. Source: https://boldsign.com/electronic-signature-pricing/
- **Free Growth plan and 50% off for nonprofits** (Nonprofit): Nonprofit organizations get the Growth plan free and 50% off the Business and Premium plans. Source: https://boldsign.com/electronic-signature-pricing/

## Key features

- **Email, SMS or WhatsApp delivery:** Send signing requests by email on every plan; SMS and WhatsApp delivery are paid add-ons from the Business plan.
- **Templates and bulk sending:** Save contracts as templates and share them with a team; bulk send from a CSV file and bulk signing links are add-ons.
- **Signer verification:** Signer authentication is on every plan; ID with selfie checks, knowledge-based questions and SMS codes can be added on Business.
- **AI field detection and search:** Business adds AI that places signature fields on a document and an AI search across signed documents.
- **Audit trail:** Each document keeps a downloadable audit trail of its signing history, and the final file is digitally signed to show tampering.
- **API and embedded signing:** A free sandbox for testing, then an API plan with embedded sending and signing, webhooks, Zapier, Power Automate and an MCP server.

## Good for

- Individuals and micro-businesses who send up to 25 documents a month for free
- Teams that want unlimited envelopes at a low per-user price
- Nonprofits: the Growth plan is free for them

## Worth knowing

- Growth caps each user at 50 envelopes a month and 10 templates; unlimited envelopes need Business.
- Bulk send, bulk links, SMS and WhatsApp delivery, ID verification and the Salesforce integration are add-ons charged on use.
- The API is a separate plan: from $30 a month with 40 envelopes, then $0.75 per envelope.
- Premium shares 250 envelopes a month across all users; going past that is billed pay-as-you-go.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 3.0 out of 4**, graded Oct 17, 2026. BoldSign is the bargain of this category. The free plan gives one person 25 envelopes a month, and three people on Growth pay $15 a month billed yearly for 50 envelopes each. The trade-offs: SMS, bulk send and ID checks are add-ons charged on use, and there's no store rating on record yet.

- **Value for money: A.** $15 a month for three on Growth, billed yearly ($5 a head, $15 a head monthly), with 50 envelopes each a month and 10 templates. That's under 60% of this category's cheapest quarter. Unlimited envelopes on Business is $15 a head.
- **Free plan and trial: B.** The free Essential plan gives one user 25 envelopes a month, 2 templates, signer authentication, reminders, branding and the apps. One person could really live on that. Paid plans have a 30-day trial too.
- **Features: B.** Signer authentication on every plan, templates, in-person signing and team sharing on Growth, then SSO, AI field detection and HubSpot on Business. Bulk send, SMS, WhatsApp and ID checks cost extra on use, but they're there. It covers the whole job.
- **Ease of use: C.** There's an iPhone app but no store rating on record yet. It's a web app where you upload a contract, place fields and send, with templates to set up first.
- **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web, iPhone and Android, with Salesforce, HubSpot, Zapier, Xero and Power Automate, plus an API on its own plan from $30 a month. No desktop app, so it's a B.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** The plain part of BoldSign you could make: documents and templates. What surrounds it you could not. The 5 things listed below take a company, not a weekend. It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 3.0 is higher than 12 of the 13 other e-signature and proposal tools we grade. It costs $60 a year.

- You could make: Documents and templates: an app builder makes these well.
- You could not: A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
- You could not: It is priced for each person, which means accounts and billing for a team.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, Salesforce, HubSpot and Zapier among them, and has an API.
- You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
- You could not: The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
