According to a study by The Insight Partners, the electronic signature market is expected to surpass US$ 40 billion by 2030. This growth is mainly due to the optimization that technology provides to bureaucratic processes, resolving demands from various areas with high resolution and effectiveness.
“It is a tool that profoundly transforms the routine of organizations and people, simplifying journeys that were previously slow and full of manual steps”, says Cristian Medeiros, CTO ofClicksign, a company that materializes relationships between people and businesses in the digital environment.
To highlight the advantages of this technology, the expert listed five ways to streamline daily life through electronic signatures. Check it out
- Buying and selling items online
According to a report by Opinion Box, 46% of consumers prefer to shop online. Data like this shows how e-commerce has become a strategic approach for companies to grow in the current technological reality and make shoppers' lives easier.
Because it is a process that takes place in the digital environment, Medeiros states that electronic signatures can further improve this new type of relationship between organizations and clients. "It is very common to see platforms for high-value vehicles and products, for example, using technology to formalize transactions, making them much safer, documented, and faster," he explains.
- Authorization of school documents
The electronic signature also transforms the school sector by optimizing communication between schools, parents, and students. "The families can closely monitor their children's school life without needing to physically print documents such as field trip authorizations and enrollments," highlights the CTO.
It is still worth emphasizing that the confidentiality of these files is also assured. "The advanced encryption of the technology fully protects the data of all involved," the executive adds.
- Travel documentation
Another benefit of electronic signature is simplifying travel arrangements. Technology helps to close insurance contracts, hotel reservations, vehicle rentals, and even boarding authorizations for minor children.
The Clicksign specialist emphasizes that the tool is an effective way to ensure that the traveler fully enjoys their experience. "All documents are accessible anytime and anywhere, providing more comfort and fewer headaches when the person reaches their destination," he emphasizes.
- Medical agreements and authorizations
The electronic signature also changes the relationship between patients and healthcare professionals. Processes such as medical procedures and information releases can be completed in a few minutes, saving time for patients in clinics and hospitals.
In this case, Medeiros adds that the tool not only streamlines the service but also helps save lives. "If there is an alternative that speeds up emergency situations, the sector cannot overlook it," he warns.
- Ease of real estate transactions
Finally, it is possible to highlight the role of electronic signatures in the real estate market. Real estate purchase and sale negotiations and powers of attorney are completed without the risk of fraud, allowing brokers and future residents to achieve their goals without obstacles.
"Mainly because they involve high-value transactions, it is essential to carry them out by combining convenience and security, advantages provided by digital signatures," concludes the CTO.
