Adding DocuSign to Your SmartVault Account

Add a DocuSign Subscription to your SmartVault account to let your clients electronically sign and return documents from almost anywhere in the world, using practically any device.

DocuSign Subscription is available for all SmartVault customers on annual plans. Upgrade to an annual plan on your Billing page or contact our Support Team to assist you. DocuSign Subscription does not cover DocuSign ID Check (KBAs). You must purchase KBAs as add-ons.

  Pro Tip: Streamlined eSignature with KBAs Included

Consider our Accounting Unlimited plan for a comprehensive eSignature solution that bundles KBAs offering a streamlined experience and more significant savings.

Billing Options

SmartVault offers DocuSign two billing options:

  • Pay-as-you-go—Purchase and manage an inventory of envelopes users can send to get client eSignatures.
  • Subscription—There’s no inventory to manage when you add DocuSign to your annual subscription. Each user can send up to 100 envelopes per year.

Envelope Allowance

SmartVault annual plans with DocuSign include an allowance of 100 sent envelopes per user per year under our Reasonable Use Policy. For example, the combined annual allowance of an account with five users would be 500 envelopes*. You can track your DocuSign envelope usage in your account settings.

This allowance is consistent with the Reasonable Use Policy applied across the DocuSign user base and is sufficient for most businesses.

*SmartVault will not prevent your users from sending eSignature envelopes past your envelope allowance limit. SmartVault reserves the right to adjust the price of the plan for usage over the 100-envelope-per-year limit across multiple months. You will pay an adjusted price at plan renewal.
