How to Require Signers to Sign Document Required Two-Factor Authentication

In order to verify the identity of a signer (to confirm an electronic signature was made by the correct signer), the signer can be asked to enter an authentication code when signing a document.

When two-factor authentication is required for a document, signers are required to register for a SignTime account and setup Google Authenticator (authentication app) to complete the signature process.
​
*The "Two-Factor Authentication for Signers" is only for Prime plan user

"Two-Factor Authentication for Signers" can be set up in the following two ways

1. Require two-factor authentication for each document (operated by document sender)

When creating a new document, the “Require Two-Factor Authentication for all signers” option can be selected in “Settings”.
*This option is not displayed for non-Prime plan users
*For more information on sending documents (requesting signatures), please check Prepare Document for Requesting an E-Signature.

2. Require two-factor authentication for all documents (operated by group owner)

By turning enabling "Require two-factor authentication from signers" settings from the "Team Settings" page, all documents created within the group will automatically have "Two-Factor Authentication" enabled.
