Signing methods

Visma Addo supports several signing methods. In this guide, the different methods are summarized and explained.

Ok button

A recipient may approve a document with a simple "OK". This can be used in cases where it is not necessary that the recipient signs the document, but the sender must have documentation that the recipient has seen the document - as a minimum.

Touchscreen

With touchscreen signature, the recipients sign documents with their fingers on a touch screen. This method is best on a smartphone or tablet, but can also be used with the mouse on a desktop computer.
