How do I send the contract to the guardian for electronic signature?

A queue of guardians waiting to sign contracts is a familiar scene in the registration season, and the signing link ends it.

Steps

1. Open the contract — Figure 1 — and at the bottom there is a guardian signature section.
2. To sign at the school: press Sign now and hand the guardian the device to sign with a finger.
3. To sign remotely: press Send via WhatsApp, or copy the signing link and send it yourself.
4. The guardian opens the link and sees the whole contract with its items and amounts, with no account needed in the system.
5. As soon as they sign, a signed tag appears with the signing date and time.
6. Print the contract with Print contract and keep a copy in the student’s file.

Notes

• Check the items and amounts before sending the link; editing after signature empties it of meaning.
• A signature on the link is as binding as one on paper, and it is recorded with its date and time.
• Do not hand over books or start the year before the contract is signed; an unsigned contract will not protect you in a fee dispute.
• A promissory note prints from the same page and is the extra security most private schools use.
