Step 3 - Types Of Signatures
In our digital journey, we offer support for five different types of signatures.
The clickwrap signature method is a straightforward and efficient way to obtain digital signatures for agreements or contracts. It involves presenting the terms and conditions of the agreement on a website or application and requiring users to indicate their acceptance by clicking a designated "Agree" or "Accept" button. This method is widely used in online transactions and services, providing a convenient and legally binding way to collect electronic signatures. By clicking the designated button, users demonstrate their consent and agreement to the presented terms, enabling a smooth and secure digital signing process.
You can use the following in Initiate Contract API for using Clickwrap.
It is applicable globally.
The clickwrap signature method, combined with mobile or email OTP (One-Time Password) based authentication, provides a seamless and secure way to obtain digital signatures. This method involves presenting the terms and conditions of an agreement on a website or application and requiring users to click a designated "Agree" or "Accept" button. In addition to the clickwrap process, users are also required to authenticate themselves using a One-Time Password sent to their mobile device or email address. This two-factor authentication ensures an extra layer of security, confirming the identity of the signer and enhancing the validity and integrity of the digital signature process.

Easy eSign are digital versions of your physical signature that you can use to sign electronic agreements. They can be created by drawing your signature electronically or choosing a pre-made template of your name. When you attach this digital representation of your signature to a document, it shows that you agree to the terms of the contract and intend to be bound by them. However, unlike electronic signatures, virtual signatures do not have the added security measures of cryptographic and hashing algorithms.
We offer support for 3 different ways to do easy eSign:
In this technique, you use your fingers to draw your signature on a mobile or web screen, aiming to create a digital version that closely resembles your original handwritten signature.
In this approach, the system automatically creates different signature options using your name, and you can select any of these generated signatures to sign the document.
In this method, you can sign your signature on a piece of white paper with an ink pen and then capture an image of your signature. You can then upload this image to sign the document digitally.

Aadhaar eSign is a digital signature service provided by the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) that allows individuals to digitally sign documents using their Aadhaar credentials. It enables a convenient and secure way to electronically sign various agreements, forms, and applications, eliminating the need for physical signatures. Aadhaar eSign leverages the biometric and demographic information stored in the Aadhaar database to authenticate the signer's identity, ensuring the integrity and authenticity of the digitally signed documents.
Aadhaar eSign offers two methods of e-Sign: OTP-based and biometric-based.
OTP, which stands for One-Time Password, is a popular method used for e-Authentication in Aadhaar eSign. With OTP-based e-Authentication, individuals are required to provide their Aadhaar number and registered mobile number. A unique OTP is then sent to their registered mobile number. Once the OTP is verified, the e-signing process is successfully completed.
Biometric-based e-Authentication is another method utilized in Aadhaar eSign. This method involves the use of an individual's unique biological characteristics, such as fingerprints or iris scans, to verify their identity. During the e-Authentication process, individuals' biometric data is captured using specialized devices. This data is then compared with the biometric information stored in the Aadhaar database. If the biometric data matches, the individual's identity is confirmed, and the e-Signing is considered successful.
