Adding multiple signers to a notary journal entry

Adding multiple signers to a notary journal entry is one of the key features of this app that dramatically speeds up the notary journal process. While there may be situations where there is only one person being notarized, we find it more common that there are multiple signers (such as a married couple) that are signing the same documents being notarized. Multiple signers, coupled with multiple documents all being notarized at once (such as when signing loan documents for a refinance) creates a nightmare for the notary public when it comes to completing the notary journal, since it is either a requirement or considered “best practice” to create a single notary journal entry for each person signing and each document being notarized. As an example, if there are 2 people signing 5 documents that are being notarized, it would be required or considered “best practice” to create a total of 10 notary journal entries.

By adding multiple signers to your signing session in the app, you won’t have to worry about inputting the same information over and over again for each document being notarized. You'll only have to input the entry information once, add all signers that are signing, and select which documents are being notarized. The app will automatically create a notary journal entry for each document being notarized and for each signer individually, ensuring that you stay compliant with your notary journal.

Follow the steps below to add multiple signers to a signing session.

Step one

Add the first signer by clicking “Add New Signer”. This step comes after entering the location information for the signing.

Step two

Scan their ID or manually input their ID information, then hit “Save”. This will add the signer to the session and bring you back to step 2, giving you the option of adding another signer or moving on (if there is only one signer)
