Get the new digital signature software from SwissSign!

Use the SwissSigner with a SwissSign Certificate to easily and rapidly sign any PDF-file. The Public-Beta-version supports all common signature functions: Single- or multi-signature, with or without certification, with the SwissSigner you simply digitally sign all your PDF-files!

In addition, the SwissSigner automatically adds a certified SwissSign TimeStamp to your signature. With this, the exact time of your signature is confirmed, compliant to the Swiss Digital Signature Law (ZertES).

Thanks to this solution, electronic contracts, e-invoicing or e-archiving are easy to realize and compliant to Swiss law: Use the SwissSigner to Sign with a PostCertificate, the qualified digital signature of the Swiss Post, and meet the requirements of the Swiss Federal Department of Finance (ESTV) for electronically transmitted data and information (EIDI-V), as well as the regulation on legally-compliant electronic archiving ( GeBüV).
