What Request Consumer does
Request Consumer is a document workflow for collecting information and an electronic signature from a named consumer or recipient. In signNow, upload the form, review automatically detected fillable fields, assign those fields, and send the request by email or signing link. The recipient reviews the document, enters the requested information, and signs electronically. signNow records the signing event, timestamps, and document history in an audit trail. For U.S. transactions, ESIGN and UETA recognize electronic records and signatures when intent, consent, attribution, and record retention requirements are satisfied.

Request Consumer troubleshooting questions
Resolve the specific field, delivery, consent, plan, and legal-usage questions that can affect a Request Consumer workflow.
Business includes legally binding eSignatures, audit trails, templates, mobile apps, ISO 27001, SOC 2, and GDPR support. Business Premium adds bulk send, kiosk mode, request payments, and quick invite links. Select the plan according to how Request Consumer is distributed.
Upload Request Consumer as a PDF or supported document, then inspect the fields signNow detects. Auto-detection can reduce setup time, but you should compare every field with the source document and add missing signature, date, or text fields manually.
If the consumer receives an email but cannot open Request Consumer, verify the address, resend the invitation, and try a generated signing link. The recipient may often sign without a signNow account, depending on the workflow configuration.
Consumer-facing electronic records require disclosure of the right to paper, access to the electronic format, and a procedure for withdrawing consent under 15 U.S.C. §7001(c). Configure the workflow and retain evidence supporting those requirements before sending Request Consumer.
Business plans include 100 signature invites per user per year, with overage fees. The Site License uses $1.50 per signature invite and is designed for unlimited users and 1,000 or more documents annually. Check usage before selecting a plan.
signNow states that its service is ESIGN and UETA compliant, but the underlying transaction must still satisfy intent, attribution, consent, and record-retention requirements. Excluded records, including wills and certain court filings, require a separate legal process.
