The best DocuSign alternatives in 2026
Short answer: ResellPortal is the DocuSign alternative for agencies and resellers who want to sell e-signature under their own brand, at $8 a month wholesale per client with no monthly fee. SignWell and BoldSign are low-cost picks for small businesses, Documenso and DocuSeal are open-source options, and DocuSign is still the safe choice for large companies with strict compliance needs.
DocuSign's e-signature plans are priced per user. On annual billing, Standard is $30 per user a month and Business Pro is $45. Both include 100 envelopes per user per year, and extra envelopes are billed one by one. Bulk Send and collecting payments need Business Pro. People look for alternatives for two reasons. Small teams that send many documents want a lower, flatter price. Agencies want to sell signing under their own brand, and DocuSign's partner page lists no white-label option.

1ResellPortal
ResellPortal's Document Signer is a complete signing app you sell under your brand. Your client uploads a PDF up to 25MB, starts from a template, or has the AI Drafter write a service agreement, NDA, employment, rental or sales contract from a short chat. They place signature, initials, date and text fields for each signer, and signers go together or in order. Signers need no account. They accept an e-signature disclosure, then draw or type their signature on any device. Each finished document keeps a signed PDF and an audit trail with a certificate.
Bulk Send, reminders, expiration dates and public web forms are included at $8 a month wholesale per client, or $70 a year, with no platform fee. The app runs on your store's domain, the client's name and logo appear on documents and signing emails, and clients pay you through your own Stripe or PayPal. The trade-off: the disclosure references the US ESIGN Act, so clients with regulated documents should check with their own lawyer. A large company that needs enterprise compliance reviews is better served by DocuSign.
2SignWell
SignWell is a simple, low-cost choice for small businesses. The free plan covers 3 documents a month. Paid plans are $12 and $36 a month, or $10 and $30 billed yearly, with unlimited documents. Every plan includes white-label embedding with no SignWell branding, and your logo on signing pages and emails comes with Business.
3BoldSign
BoldSign includes custom branding of emails and signing pages on every plan, the free one included, and a custom email domain from Business. Its API plan starts at $30 a month with 40 envelopes, then $0.75 each. Its pricing page describes custom branding but no white-label or reseller plan.
4Documenso
Documenso calls itself the open source DocuSign alternative. Hosted plans run from free to $40 a month for Teams. The $250 a month Platform plan adds unlimited users, unlimited API access and white-label embedded signing. It can also be self-hosted, with licensing priced separately.
5DocuSeal
DocuSeal has a free open-source edition you run on your own server with your own domain. On-Premises Pro, at $20 per user a month, adds white-label with your logo. A cloud Pro plan at the same price includes your company logo for teams that do not want to host anything.
6signNow
signNow offers its eSignature to software vendors either under the signNow brand or as white-label, with support for multiple brands and custom emails, redirects and screens. Pricing comes through sales, and its API trial includes 250 free signature invites. It suits software companies adding signing to their own product.
When DocuSign is still the right choice
Choose DocuSign when the people signing expect its name, or when a large company needs one vendor for many teams. DocuSign cites 1.9 million customers and more than 1,000 pre-built integrations, has signing apps for iPhone and Android, and offers enterprise plans for regulated environments. If your legal team has already approved DocuSign, switching may cost more time than it saves.
Common questions
What is the best DocuSign alternative for small businesses?
For a low flat price, SignWell's Light plan is $10 a month billed yearly with unlimited documents, and BoldSign has a free plan with custom branding. If the business buys software from an agency, ResellPortal lets that agency sell a full signing app with AI contract drafting at $8 a month wholesale.
Is there a free alternative to DocuSign?
Yes. SignWell, BoldSign and Documenso have free plans, and DocuSeal's open-source edition is free if you host it on your own server. Each free plan has its own limits, such as SignWell's 3 documents a month, so check them against how much you send.
Can I resell e-signature software under my own brand instead of DocuSign?
Yes. With ResellPortal you switch on the Document Signer, set your retail price and sell it on your branded store. Clients pay you directly through Stripe or PayPal, and signers see the client's company name and logo, not ResellPortal. You fund a wallet from $20, with a $10 bonus on a first deposit of $20 or more, and pay $8 a month wholesale only for active clients.
