How We Chose the Best Online Notarizing Service

Ease of use. If you have to spend hours navigating the website or trying to set up an account, you lose out on the supposed convenience of using an online notary. A remote online notary should be fast and easy to use.

Pricing. Online notarization must be affordable. If you process high volumes of paperwork, a monthly subscription package might be a good choice.

Customer service. A good notary platform should offer customer service and help features. Typically, these services are available 24-7. Do they have help features and helpful guides? Do they make it easy to use the service? A notary platform should be easy to navigate.

Security. You are dealing with highly sensitive information. Most documents that require notarization involve your personal financial data, banking information, social security number, and other identifiers. The platform you use must have high-level security.

Vetted notaries. Look for a platform that thoroughly vets and conducts background checks on its notaries. You don’t want notarization from a notary who’s using a fraudulent license or who isn’t in good standing with their state notary board.
