Privacy and disclosure pitfalls

The form may expose bank-account details when downloaded, emailed, or stored outside controlled signNow access.
A signer may complete the F380 without seeing a clear electronic-record consent disclosure required for a consumer transaction.
Shared accounts or broad permissions can let an unauthorized employee view or send monthly EFT authorizations.
Unclear payment frequency or amount language can create disputes about the scope of recurring transfer consent.

Review account, amount, and monthly frequency fields before sending.

Delivery to signer

Record-keeping practices for F380

Accurate field review and controlled retention help preserve the F380’s payment instructions, signer intent, and supporting audit evidence.

Verify recurring transfer details

Confirm every monthly transfer field before sending the F380. Compare the signer’s name, account identifier, transfer frequency, and amount or authorization language with the organization’s underlying payment agreement. Do not use a template value that could direct funds from the wrong account.

Control the approved template

Use a dedicated signNow template for the F380 only after the organization approves its wording. Lock reusable text, assign editable fields to the correct sender, and require a second review when account information changes between monthly authorizations.

Preserve audit evidence

Export the completed document and audit trail together. The audit trail records signing activity, timestamps, and related evidence that may help establish intent and attribution under ESIGN and UETA when a payment authorization is later questioned.

Apply the correct retention rule

Apply the organization’s documented retention schedule rather than assuming one federal period applies to every EFT record. If the authorization supports tax records, consult the IRS and IRC requirements; state and industry rules may require longer retention.

Connect monthly EFT authorization workflows

Route F380 records through Salesforce, NetSuite, Microsoft 365, Google Drive, Box, or Procore when the surrounding payment or operations process requires connected records.

Platform requirements for the EFT authorization

Use Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge on Windows 10, Windows 11, or macOS. signNow mobile apps support iOS and Android for reviewing and signing the monthly electronic fund transfer authorization.

Browser support Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge support secure browser access
Operating systems Windows 10, Windows 11, macOS, iOS, and Android support signing
Connection security TLS 1.2 or TLS 1.3 protects transmitted form data

Organizations processing recurring EFT authorizations should use managed Windows, macOS, iOS, or Android devices, current browser security updates, and TLS 1.2 or TLS 1.3. Enterprise deployments can add API access, SSO provisioning, and certificate or long-term validation configuration when their control framework requires it.

Troubleshooting F380 authorization workflows

Resolve access, consent, plan, and compliance questions before relying on a completed monthly EFT authorization.

If the signer cannot open the F380 request, confirm the invitation address and resend it from the signNow document workflow. The Business plan includes templates and audit trails; a signer generally does not need a paid account to complete the request.

A recurring EFT authorization should identify the account holder, transfer purpose, frequency, and applicable amount or terms exactly as required by the underlying organization. signNow can preserve the signed record, but it does not determine whether a bank accepts the authorization.

If a signer disputes consent, review the signNow Audit Trail for the invitation, authentication event, timestamps, IP information, field changes, and completion record. Under ESIGN and UETA, intent, attribution, consent, and reproducible records support enforceability.

The Business plan is listed at $8 per user per month with annual billing and includes legally binding eSignatures, templates, audit trails, and mobile apps. Business Premium adds bulk send at $15 per user per month annually.

For consumer-facing electronic records, ESIGN requires disclosure of the right to receive paper records, access to the electronic format, and a process for withdrawing consent under 15 U.S.C. §7001(c). Obtain applicable consumer consent before sending the F380 electronically.

If the F380 contains protected health information, signNow identifies HIPAA compliance as requiring a Business Associate Agreement. Confirm that the organization has the required BAA and limit access through appropriate roles before sending.
