Digital Signatures on Documents preventing Fraudulant transactions

Himanshu Kapoor shared this idea 4 years ago

Under Consideration

When a customer purchases a product, the invoice sent to the email of the customer should have the option to digitally sign it, in response generating a copy of signed invoice being attached to the customer's account on WHMCS for every purchase. Thus helping in situations of fraud control and similar disputes.

There are multiple companies offering a solution of this kind, like RightSignature and DocuSign etc., they may be able to provide an API and a separate module enabling this can be added.

This can also be enhanced by adding additional documents like Terms and Condition agreement etc.

This would be a great addition - although probably best handled by a 3rd-party who writes modules for WHMCS (unless the WHMCS folks want to write their own with sub-modules for the different signature companies). In any case, having digital signatures is a must nowadays.

We have requirement of signing invoices digitally for GST. If this can be achieved by adding a module then it would be great. I came across a 5-year-old thread and not sure it will help. [https://forum.whmcs.com/showthread.php?43728-Need-module-digitally-signed-invoices]

Hi,

As far as I see here this should be something really easy to add to WHMCS invoices.

By the way - As far as I know having the invoice secured with a digital signatures /electronic signature is mandatory by law in lots of places - right?

Thanks!

We use WHMCS as our main CRM. We build websites and provide seo services along with hosting & domains. We're unable to create contracts and have clients digitally sign through whmcs which we wish was possible.

I also mentioned the implementation of legal titles of customers to make contracts legally binding i.e. MR/MRS/MS etc... https://requests.whmcs.com/topic/legal-title-mr-mrs-miss-ms-etc

Hello,

It has become mandatory for us send Digitally Signed invoices to few of our MNC clients. This feature will be very helpful to avoid lot of manual invoicing requiring Digitally Signatures.

This request is pending since 4+ years and should be given due importance.

Thank you!
