How are Electronic Signature Capture Pads Used?

Electronic Signature Capture Pads

When you need to affix your signature to a document, an agreement, or an ID card, an electronic signature pad becomes a real time-saving tool. Depending on your usage, several models are available to accommodate a variety of price points and user traffic.

Entry-level signature capture models vary; most of these devices feature a backlit screen and stylus that looks like a pen for capturing your signatures. For higher-level security, these devices also capture biometric data such as fingerprints.
