For accountants and bookkeepers

E-signatures for accountants and bookkeepers

Engagement letters, authorities, and client onboarding signed in minutes, then filed straight into Xero against the right contact. Built in Australia, legally binding under the Electronic Transactions Act 1999, with flat AUD pricing that does not charge you per client.

What practices use it for

The paperwork an accounting or bookkeeping practice sends every year, signed and filed without the manual handling.

Engagement letters

Send the annual engagement letter to every client, get it back signed in minutes, and keep a dated, audit-trailed copy.

Authority to act and ATO forms

Capture client authorities and consent forms with a legally binding signature and a verification stamp.

Client onboarding

Onboard a new client with their details and signature in one flow, and create their Xero contact automatically.

Files into Xero automatically

The signed PDF attaches itself to the matching Xero contact on completion. No manual download and re-upload.

Client data in Australia

Documents and audit trails are hosted in Australia, supporting your APP and TPB confidentiality obligations.

Flat AUD pricing, not per signer

Send to your whole client book without per-signer fees. Predictable monthly pricing in Australian dollars.

Why accountants choose SignAndGo

Most accounting and bookkeeping practices already run Xero. The friction is not the signing, it is what happens after: downloading the signed engagement letter, finding the client in Xero, and re-uploading it. SignAndGo removes that step. When a client signs, the completed PDF attaches itself to the matching Xero contact automatically, and if the client is not in Xero yet, the contact is created for you. SignAndGo accesses only contacts and attachments in Xero, never your invoices, bank feeds, or financial data.

Documents and audit trails are hosted in Australia, which keeps client information aligned with the Australian Privacy Principles and the confidentiality expectations of the Tax Practitioners Board. Every signed document carries a full audit trail and a tamper-evident verification stamp, and is legally binding under the Electronic Transactions Act 1999.

Pricing is flat and in Australian dollars, by plan and team-member cap rather than per signer, so sending the annual engagement letter to every client on your book does not change the bill.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best e-signature tool for accountants in Australia?
For an Australian accounting or bookkeeping practice the right tool comes down to four things: whether signed documents file themselves into your ledger software (Xero), whether client data is hosted in Australia, whether signatures are legally binding under the Electronic Transactions Act 1999, and a pricing model that does not charge per signer. SignAndGo is built in Australia, files signed PDFs into Xero against the matching contact automatically, keeps documents and audit trails in Australia, and uses flat AUD pricing with no per-signer fees.
Are engagement letters legally binding when signed electronically in Australia?
Yes. Electronic signatures are legally valid in Australia under the Electronic Transactions Act 1999 (Commonwealth) and each state and territory equivalent, provided the signer consented and is identified. SignAndGo records a full audit trail (timestamp, IP, email verification) and a tamper-evident verification stamp on every signed engagement letter, authority form, or fee proposal.
Does SignAndGo work with Xero for accountants?
Yes. When a client signs, the completed PDF attaches itself to the matching Xero contact automatically, matched by email. If the client is not in Xero yet, their contact is created for you. Practices that run multiple Xero organisations across more than one login can route each signed document to the correct entity. See the full Xero integration for details.
Is client data kept in Australia?
Documents, signatures, and audit trails are stored and processed in Australia (Google Cloud Sydney), which supports your obligations under the Australian Privacy Principles and the Tax Practitioners Board confidentiality expectations. Operational sub-processors for email, SMS, and payments are disclosed on our Subprocessors page.
How much does it cost for a practice?
SignAndGo is a flat monthly per-workspace subscription in AUD, from a free Personal plan up to Business at $99 per month, with no annual lock-in. Pricing is by plan and team-member cap, not per signer, so sending engagement letters to every client on your book does not increase the bill. Clients and recipients are never charged.
