You should not need to compare pricing tiers or calculate whether a monthly plan is worth it just to get a contract signed. Most electronic signature tools make pricing complicated because complicated pricing is how they make money.
Quill has one price: £1.99 per document. You pay at the point of sending via Stripe Checkout. There is no subscription, no credit system, no minimum purchase, and no account balance. If you send one document this year and ten next year, you pay £1.99 and then £19.90. That is it.
Every document you send through Quill includes:
There are no templates, no document storage, no bulk sending, and no API. Quill is a single-purpose tool for sending documents for signature. If you need a document management platform, Quill is not the right tool. If you need a document signed, it is. Compared to subscription tools like DocuSign or Adobe Sign, Quill is built for people who sign occasionally rather than daily.
When you click “Send” on a document, you are taken to Stripe Checkout. You pay £1.99 by card. Once payment completes, your signers receive their signing links by email. Quill never sees your card details — Stripe handles everything.
How it works
Drop in the contract, agreement, or document you need signed. Any standard PDF works.
Add your signers and click where each person needs to sign. Assign fields to the right people.
Pay and your signers receive an email with a secure link. They sign in their browser — no account needed.
Pricing
No subscription. No monthly fee. No account balance. You pay when you send, and only when you send.
Legal validity
Quill produces Simple Electronic Signatures (SES), recognised under the Electronic Communications Act 2000 (UK), EU eIDAS Regulation, and the US ESIGN Act. SES are legally valid for the vast majority of commercial contracts and agreements.
Audit trail
Every signed document includes a certificate page recording signer names, emails, timestamps, IP addresses, and consent records.
Tamper evidence
A SHA-256 hash of the completed PDF is computed and stored. Any modification to the document after signing is detectable.
6-year retention
Audit data and signed documents are retained for 6 years, then permanently deleted.
