E-signing with QES – when it really matters

Secured in court
Your signature is uniquely assigned to a person and is legally binding. With QES, you sign securely and are on the safe side in case of disputes.

Your identity, digitally verified
Your QES is based on a qualified digital certificate and a one-time identity verification. This ensures that each signature is uniquely assigned.

Where it really matters
The QES is used when written form is legally required. For example, in official documents or sensitive financial records.
"A qualified electronic signature linked to a qualified timestamp is equivalent to a handwritten signature according to the Federal Act of March 18, 2016, on electronic signatures."
