--- title: BoldSign canonical: https://saasranked.com/software/boldsign/ category: E-Signature Software points: 92 rank: 1 of 9 facts_checked: 2026-10-08 --- # BoldSign E-signature service with a free plan of 25 envelopes a month and paid plans from $5 a user. 92 points out of 100. #1 of 9 e-signature services. Vendor: Syncfusion, Inc.. Website: https://boldsign.com/ - The free Essential plan allows 25 envelopes a month and 2 templates, with an audit trail on every document [1]. - Growth, the cheapest paid plan, costs $5 a user a month on yearly billing ($15 on monthly billing) and allows 50 envelopes a user a month [1]. - Business costs $15 a user a month on yearly billing, with unlimited envelopes and single sign-on; bulk send is listed as an add-on [1]. - Qualified electronic signatures (QES) are listed for Business and above, and SOC 2 Type II is listed on every plan [1][4]. - Live API access starts with the Enterprise API plan at $30 a month, which includes 40 envelopes [1]. Verdict: BoldSign suits small teams that want a low entry price and a path to qualified EU signatures, ID checks and single sign-on without a custom quote [1][2]. The free plan and the $5 Growth plan cover light use, with 25 and 50 envelopes a month [1]. The catch: bulk send, ID checks and QES sit on Business or above, and the API is a separate plan [1]. Best for: Small teams that want cheap plans and a qualified-signature option. ## Points | Criterion | Line | Value | Points | Note | |---|---|---|---|---| | Signing | Reusable templates | Yes | 6/6 | Growth, the cheapest paid plan, includes 10 templates; template sharing is listed on the same plan [1]. | | Signing | Bulk send | Yes | 4/4 | Business, Premium and Enterprise API list bulk send as Yes; the plan cards show it as an add-on [1]. | | Signing | Signing order | Yes | 3/3 | The features page says you can set sequential or parallel signing order [2]. | | Signing | Collect payment while signing | Not published | 0/3 | Not published on the vendor's pricing or features pages [1][2]. | | Signing | Audit trail on every document | Yes | 4/4 | Audit trail or certificate of completion is listed as Yes on every plan, Growth included [1]. | | Legal strength | Highest eIDAS signature level | qualified | 12/12 | Pricing lists a qualified electronic signature (QES) add-on and eIDAS as Yes; the Business plan is $15 a user [1]. | | Legal strength | Signer ID check | Yes | 5/5 | Signers can be checked with government ID, selfie and knowledge-based questions; ID verification is listed from Business [1][2]. | | Legal strength | US ESIGN and UETA named | Yes | 3/3 | The legality page says BoldSign complies with the ESIGN Act and UETA [3]. | | Security | SOC 2 Type II or ISO 27001 | Yes | 8/8 | Security page says BoldSign has undergone a SOC 2 Type 2 audit; pricing lists SOC 2 Type II on every plan [4][1]. | | Security | Single sign-on (SSO) | Yes | 5/5 | Single sign-on through an identity provider is listed from the Business plan [1][4]. | | Security | Two-factor sign-in | Yes | 3/3 | Pricing lists two-step authentication on every plan; a BoldSign article describes 2FA for account sign-in by app, SMS or email [1][8]. | | Security | Open source | Not published | 0/3 | Not published on the vendor's pricing or features pages [1][2]. | | Connections | Public API | Yes | 7/7 | The vendor's developer hub documents sending documents by API; live access is the Enterprise API plan from $30 a month [7][1]. | | Connections | Storage and automation links | Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive or SharePoint, Dropbox, Zapier | 4/4 | The integrations page lists Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox and Zapier; SharePoint is not listed [5]. | | Connections | Mobile apps | iOS, Android | 4/4 | The mobile app page links to the App Store and Google Play apps for sending and signing [6]. | | Price and limits | Free plan | Yes | 8/8 | Essential costs $0 and allows 25 envelopes a month; signers need no account [1]. | | Price and limits | Documents a month on the cheapest paid plan | 50 | 6/8 | Growth allows 50 envelopes a user each month [1]. | | Price and limits | Cheapest paid plan | $5/mo | 10/10 | Growth is $5 a user a month on yearly billing; $15 on monthly billing [1]. | ## Plans | Plan | Price | Per month (USD) | |---|---|---| | Essential | Free [1] | $0 | | Growth | $5/user/month [1] | $5 | | Business | $15/user/month [1] | $15 | | Premium | $99/month [1] | $99 | | Enterprise API | From $30/month [1] | $30 | The pricing page offers a yearly and a monthly toggle; its headline says paid plans start at $5, which is the yearly rate [1]. ## Strengths - A free plan sends up to 25 envelopes a month, and signers need no account [1]. - Qualified electronic signatures and eIDAS are listed on a plan with a public price [1]. - The vendor names a SOC 2 Type 2 audit and lists SOC 2 Type II on every plan [1][4]. - iOS and Android apps send and sign documents [6]. - Built-in links to Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox and Zapier [5]. ## Limits - Growth allows only 10 templates, and bulk send needs Business or above [1]. - Live API access is sold only as the separate Enterprise API plan, from $30 a month [1]. - The pricing and features pages show no way to collect payment during signing [1][2]. - Single sign-on and HIPAA support start at Business, $15 a user a month on yearly billing [1]. ## Vendor claims (not scored) - BoldSign says its plans have no hidden document limits or overage charges [1]. ## Sources 1.
