The price per signature is CHF 2.40 for commercial use. The party requesting the signing bears the cost of all signatures on the document. To sign a document with two signatories, for example, it would cost CHF 4.80. The one-time identity verification is free of charge.
To invite other parties to co-sign a document:
Signed documents can be found in your My Swisscom app. These will be deleted automatically 30 days after the signature process is complete. You should therefore download the documents and save them to your device or the cloud before they are deleted.
If you have been invited to sign documents, you can download the signed document again within 30 days. To do this, click on the link you received by e-mail.
A scanned signature does not meet the requirements for a qualified electronic signature (QES). So if you sign on a piece of paper, scan it and use it digitally, it is not legally equivalent to your handwritten signature, because it is easy to fake or reproduce.
Swisscom Sign is more than a digital signature for SMEs: the qualified electronic signature (QES) is equivalent to a handwritten signature under Swiss law and is valid within the entire jurisdiction of Switzerland. With a QES, you can electronically sign, with legal effect, all documents that would previously have been signed by hand (simple written form).
With a QES, you can electronically sign documents at any time and legally complete business processes online using electronic signatures and seals. If you need to sign a document that falls under European jurisdiction, please choose our eIDAS-compliant QES.
