Getting that big business deal signed and delivered could soon be done on a video call thanks to a new partnership betweenZoomand DocuSign.
TheeSigngiant has announced a new DocuSign eSignature app for Zoom that allows users to sign and confirm documents whilst on avideo conferencecall.

Signing can be done live by selecting the app whilst on a Zoom call, which is also able to automatically verify a signer’s government-issued photo ID or eID in real-time with ID Verification.
