Why eSignatures Are the Future of Client Approvals
Paper-based approvals are slowing your practice down. Here's how digital signatures and automated approval workflows change everything.
Chasing clients for signed documents is one of the biggest bottlenecks during tax season. Here is how modern practices are turning signatures into a frictionless one-touch experience.
The True Cost of Manual Signatures
When clients must download, print, wet-sign, scan, and email a document back, completion rates fall and turnaround times stretch to 10–14 days. Staff waste precious hours sending follow-up reminders.
Native Mobile & Web Signing
Portal 360's built-in Client Approvals & eSignatures let clients sign tax returns, engagement letters, and resolutions directly from their phone screen or browser in seconds.
Legal Validity & Audit Trails
Every signature collected in Portal 360 includes a tamper-evident audit log with timestamps, IP addresses, and encrypted verification complying with the Electronic Transactions Act (Cth).
Signed documents are automatically stored in the client's File Centre vault, ready for ATO audits whenever needed.
