What Foxit eSign and WordPress Integration Do?
E-signature WordPress integration with Foxit eSign allows companies to auto-generate contracts or other documents from WordPress website WPForms using the Foxit eSign template. That means your customers or vendors who need to sign a purchase agreement or NDA etc. can do so without leaving the WordPress website.
It just takes 15 minutes to configure and get started with the Foxit eSign WordPress plugin. To get started, you need an Foxit eSign account and at least one template that needs to be mapped to your word press website. You can set the field mapping between the WPForm and Foxit eSign template. Field values from WPForm will be populated into the Foxit eSign template while generating the contract. Contact can be sent via email to your client directly or after preview, or the person filling the form can esign online directly.
