Multiple-signer transactions can be completed via Co-located, Concurrent, or Split Signing.
Signers are in the same room and join the same notary meeting together on one device (computer or mobile). A maximum of two signers can participate in a co-located meeting for a retail transaction.
Signers are in different locations and simultaneously join the same notary meeting from separate devices.
- The signer may be given the option to move forward instead of waiting in the Waiting Room.
- Additional signers may join the meeting in progress.
- If they complete the transaction before anyone else joins, the meeting becomes part of a Split Signing.
- Sign Ahead cannot be used with Concurrent Signing. All notations/annotations must be made during the meeting.
- If co-signers cannot meet simultaneously, or you want to use the Sign Ahead feature, opt for a Split Signing.
Split Signing: Signers are in different locations and are either unable or unwilling to join the same online notary meeting. Separate notary meetings take place, and fees are paid for each meeting. Split Signings are either:
- Sequential Signing Order, when a specific order is pre-determined by the organization that created the transaction.
- Parallel Signing, when the order does not matter.
