Is the Customer’s Electronic Signature Legally Binding?

Electronic signatures have carried the same legal weight as traditional, paper-based ones since the United States Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (ESIGN) was passed in 2000. This legislation ensures that electronic signatures are legally binding in every state where federal law applies.

In Canada, contractual relationships are generally governed by provincial law. Electronic signatures will generally be acceptable for many most contractual arrangements, including corporate/commercial agreements and many consumer contracts.
