A signature that holds up to an audit

Every check-in form closes with the guest's digital signature. Best Guest stores the signature and a timestamp as proof of consent to data processing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the e-signatures legally binding?

Best Guest captures simple electronic signatures under the EU eIDAS framework — each one is time-stamped and stored as part of an immutable record alongside the submitted data. eIDAS applies across the EU for guest registration records; for other document types, verify the required signature level in your country.

How does a guest sign?

Directly on their phone, tablet, or computer screen with a finger, mouse, or touchscreen — no app download or extra account required.

Does the signature help with GDPR compliance?

Yes — the signed record doubles as documented consent for processing the guest's personal data, stored alongside the rest of the compliance record.
