The Swiss alternative to DocuSign
wesign.now is the Swiss alternative to DocuSign: legally valid electronic signatures (SES, AES), built in Switzerland, with your documents stored in Switzerland if you choose. Instead of paying for two US products (DocuSign to sign, DocSend to share), you get e-signing and document sharing in one tool. And at around 90% lower cost, with your own brand on every document.
Why a Swiss alternative to DocuSign?
DocuSign is an established US product. wesign.now is built in Zürich, and each workspace chooses where its documents are stored: the EU by default, or Switzerland, the UK or the US. For Swiss SMEs, trustees, law firms and practices, that means a provider that knows Swiss and EU law from the ground up, and documents in Switzerland if you want them there.
Two further advantages matter from day one: a much lower price and your own brand. With the Branded tier, your clients sign at YOURCOMPANY.wesign.now, with your logo in the signing interface and in the emails. Your recipients see your brand, not the vendor's.
- Built in Switzerland; documents stored in Zürich if you choose
- Around 90% cheaper than DocuSign + DocSend combined
- Your own subdomain YOURCOMPANY.wesign.now with the Branded tier
- Signing flow in six languages: DE/
EN/ FR/ IT/ NL/ ES
One tool instead of two: DocuSign + DocSend combined
Many teams pay twice today: DocuSign for signing, and DocSend for securely sharing and tracking documents. That is two separate US products, two subscriptions, two logins, and two invoices.
wesign.now brings both into one platform. You send documents for signature and share dossiers or proposals for viewing, all from one tool with one login. That not only cuts costs by around 90%, it also removes the friction of switching between two separate systems.
- E-signing and document sharing in one platform
- One subscription, one login, one invoice instead of two US tools
- Total cost around 90% lower than DocuSign + DocSend
Legally valid under Swiss and EU law
wesign.now produces legally valid electronic signatures under Swiss ZertES and European eIDAS. It offers the simple electronic signature (SES) and the advanced electronic signature (AES), which cover the vast majority of B2B contracts and internal approvals.
Every signed PDF carries a PAdES seal and an independent RFC 3161 timestamp; the audit trail comes with it as the Certificate of Completion. That keeps it provable who signed what and when. Any document can be checked independently at any time at /verify.
- SES and AES under ZertES (Switzerland) and eIDAS (EU)
- PAdES audit trail anchored directly in the PDF
- Independent RFC 3161 timestamp on every signed PDF
- Independent verification any time at /verify
