Allow Signers to Complete Transactions Without an Account

Audience: Organizations

The short answer: You can allow signers to complete transactions without creating a Proof account by enabling auto-login on your organization. This feature must be enabled by Proof — contact your Customer Success Manager or our support team to get started.


How It Works

By default, when you send a transaction to a signer, they are invited to set a password and create a Proof account to access their transactions. Auto-login removes this step, letting signers access and complete a transaction directly from the link in their email — no account required.

What to know before enabling auto-login:

⚠️
Instruct your signers to never forward or share the transaction link with anyone. Anyone with the link can access the transaction and its related documents.

The Signer's Experience

With auto-login enabled, signers receive an email with a direct link to their transaction. Here's what the signer's experience looks like:

  1. Click Sign document now in the email.
  2. Click Notarize now.
  3. Review the document and click Continue.
  4. Proceed through the rest of the signing process normally.
⚠️
Since signers don't have an account, they must access and download their documents immediately after the transaction is complete — they won't be able to retrieve them later through a login.

Summary Checklist

  • Contacted your CSM or support team to enable auto-login on your account.
  • Instructed signers not to share transaction links with anyone.
  • Considered enabling MFA with auto-login for additional security.
