Over the past two years, the demand for online notary services skyrocketed, and many notaries transformed their operations to online or mobile to stay in business. According to the National Notary Association, web search data from its “Find a Notary Public” page for mobile notaries increased by 1,750% in 2020. The NNA reports that in 2019 slightly more than 10,000 people visited that page; in 2020, that number skyrocketed to 187,500.

As businesses adapt to the changing demands of the modern workplace, the ability to carry out transactions with speed, convenience and ease in a secure environment becomes paramount. PandaDoc Notary transforms the legacy, time consuming in-person notarization process into a smooth, frictionless fully online digital experience. With the addition of PandaDoc Notary to the PandaDoc product portfolio, the company further consolidates its position as a leader in helping SMBs scale and win by eliminating inefficiencies and bureaucracy that prevent them from reaching their business goals.

Businesses who have used PandaDoc Notary have witnessed impressive productivity and efficiency gains. “PandaDoc Notary has enabled ImmiTranslate to complete our notarizations in a fraction of the time that it took before,” said Ian Hawes, CEO of ImmiTranslate. “Not only have we increased our internal efficiencies, but our customers enjoy receiving their documents back faster as well. We used to print, sign, and stamp, and scan our documents back into our CRM. Now, with PandaDoc, we are able to do all of that electronically.”

“The LiveNotary acquisition and the release of PandaDoc Notary builds on our mission to create a seamless, world-class digital document experience for small and medium businesses,” said Mikita Mikado, PandaDoc’s chief executive officer. “As businesses continue to digitally transform, they require that the way documents are created, sent, signed and notarized becomes much more simple, efficient and cost-effective. With the e-notary capability now integrated into our platform, customers can not only create business documents but also conveniently, securely and efficiently notarize them online as part of the PandaDoc solution.”
