Nonprofits

For foundations, associations and nonprofits

The resolution takes five minutes. The signatures take one day.

Partner programme Nonprofits: -50% for 6 months, then -30% forever

In a nonprofit you agree the wording fast. Then the document circulates for weeks, because one board member is in the field and the qualified signature card is in somebody’s drawer. With AutoSignly you send the resolution in one go: every board member gets their own link by e-mail and signs in the browser, without creating an account.

No credit card · No subscription · No commitment

Legally valid (eIDAS)

Simple, identity-verified, and qualified signatures – signature formats compliant with the eIDAS regulation.

Data in the EU

Servers in Europe, GDPR-compliant. Your documents never leave the EU.

No subscription

Zero fixed fees. You only pay for the signatures you send – rates listed on our pricing page.

Tamper-evident by design

The document’s content stays unchanged at every stage – the seal reveals any modification.

Sound familiar?

The resolution takes five minutes to write. The signatures take three weeks.

In a nonprofit the decision is made fast, because the board knows each other inside out. The bottleneck is never agreeing on the wording – it is physically collecting the signatures.

The document circulates while the board is scattered

One board member is in the field, another volunteers after hours, a third checks the post once a week. The document travels by courier or waits for the next board meeting. Five minutes of writing, three weeks of chasing signatures.

A resolution that should already be in force is one signature short

The grant provider asks for a resolution accepting the funding. The deadline passed on Friday. The decision was unanimous and the document is ready – but there is still a blank space at the bottom, and formally you have nothing to show.

The QES card sits in somebody’s drawer

A qualified signature needs your own certificate on a card or token, a reader and a desktop app installed. In an organisation run by volunteers, that card tends to be with the person currently abroad – or the PIN expired six months ago and nobody noticed.

Let us take it step by step: all three disappear the moment the resolution stops circulating on paper and lands on the board’s phones.

How it works in practice

The resolution goes out as a link.

The board does not have to gather in one room or hunt for a card reader. The document goes to the board members’ phones and you have the full set of signatures the same day.

1 · Preparation

A resolution from a template, or your own file

Upload a PDF or generate the document from a template that fills in the organisation’s details by itself. Set the resolution template up once and it serves every meeting after that.

2 · Sending

One document, every signer

You add the board members to the same document and send in one go. Each of them gets their own link at their e-mail address, signatures are collected in sequence, and you see live who has signed and who has not even opened the document yet.

3 · Signing

Signing in the browser, without a trip to the office

The signer opens the link from the e-mail in their browser, reads the document and signs. They do not create an AutoSignly account. You pick the signature form – simple, identity-verified or qualified – in the panel when you send. It works exactly the same for someone who happens to be abroad.

4 · Archive

A timestamped PDF for your records

The finished document is a PAdES PDF with a qualified timestamp and the organisation’s electronic seal. For each one you can order a signature certificate with the full history: who signed, when and by which method. Grant audit or annual report – you have the whole set.

A qualified timestamp comes as standard with the identity-verified signature and with QES, at no extra charge; the simple signature does not get one. If you do not know which signature to use for a particular resolution, consult a lawyer – the required form follows from your statutes, your board rules and any specific regulations. 16IT provides an eIDAS-compliant tool; the choice of form stays with the organisation.

What you sign most often

Six workflows that still run on paper in most organisations.

Every one of them can move to an electronic flow – no printer, no scanner, and no waiting until everyone is in the same room.

Board and council resolutions

A resolution accepting a grant, approving the annual report, amending the internal rules. Generate it from a template or upload a finished PDF, add every member of the body and send in one go. Votes and signatures come back the same day.

reusable template full set of signatures same day

Volunteer agreements

A volunteer turns up for a Saturday morning event and the paperwork has to be signed before the start. Instead of printing and chasing a signature, you send the document as a link: the agreement, the scope of duties and the GDPR consent land in the organisation’s archive the moment they are signed. You pick the signature form that fits the document in the panel.

no printing, no scanning paperwork done before day one

Donor documents and image consents

Data processing consent, consent to publish photos from an event, a donor’s declaration of a donation. You send a link instead of a file to print out, and the signed PDF with its signature history stays in your records – no photocopying ID cards.

GDPR consents in one flow complete signature history

Grant and reporting paperwork

Cost eligibility declarations, acceptance protocols, amendments to grant paperwork. The identity-verified signature and the qualified signature both carry a qualified timestamp, so an inspection can see that the document existed on exactly that day and that the content has not changed since.

Meeting minutes and attendance lists

An online board meeting ends with minutes nobody can sign, because everyone is in a different city. The minutes go out as a link right after the call, and the attendance list is signed by the same people who have just hung up.

Partnership paperwork

Cooperation arrangements with another organisation, letters of intent, logo usage consents for a joint project. One document, many signers in sequence, statuses visible live – no calling round to ask whether somebody has sent their scan back.

Partner programme

Become an AutoSignly nonprofit partner.

We run a programme for foundations, associations and public-benefit organisations. The terms are published and identical for everyone – no negotiation, no thresholds, no annual commitment. The discount does not end with the starting period: it stays with you for good.

-50%

for the first 6 months

For six months from opening the account you pay half the list rate. Every line: signatures, verifications, generating documents from templates, file storage and users.

Then -30% forever, with no reapplication

20 AC

to start with, before you top up anything

A balance on the account from day one. Outside Poland, 1 AC = 0.35 EUR / 0.40 USD / 0.30 GBP – a fixed price, not the daily exchange rate. So you know straight away how many signatures you have in hand – no credit card and no subscription, and a month with no documents costs nothing.

Free

for onboarding and moving your documents

We move your existing wording, set up the resolution templates and connect the whole board to the account. We do it, not you – and we do not add a penny for it.

Onboarding on our side applies to organisations that open an account by 30 September 2026. The 50% discount runs for 6 months from the day the account is opened, and after that it becomes -30% indefinitely – for as long as the organisation keeps its status.

No commitment. If after testing you decide it is not for your organisation, you simply stop topping up the account. The programme is run by 16IT sp. z o.o., the publisher of AutoSignly.

How do you collect signatures on a resolution when the board is in three different cities?+

You add every member of the body to a single document at once – nobody creates an AutoSignly account. Each of them gets their own link at their e-mail address, opens it in a browser, reads the text and signs (signatures are collected in sequence). In the panel you see live who has signed and who has not opened the document yet. The result is one signed PDF with the history of every signature – ready for the organisation’s records.

Does the signer need an account, an app, or a digital ID?+

No. For a simple signature and an identity-verified signature, the other party gets a link and signs in their phone’s browser – no account, no app, no digital ID (verification happens via an SMS code). Verification via a digital ID or banking node (national eID node) – coming soon. A qualified signature requires your own certificate on a smart card and the AutoSignly desktop app, or the mObywatel app, where you get 5 free signatures (for individuals only – you can’t sign a company contract this way).

Who can join the programme for nonprofits?+

Foundations, associations and public-benefit organisations registered in the Polish KRS or in the equivalent register in their own country. The terms: -50% across the whole price list for 6 months from opening the account, and after that -30% indefinitely, for as long as the organisation keeps its status. Plus 20 AC to start with. For organisations that open an account by 30 September 2026 we move the documents and set up the templates free of charge. There is no revenue threshold, no minimum top-up and no fixed-term contract – you pay only for what you send out for signature.

What exactly am I paying for with a single document?+

For each signer, according to the signature method chosen. Example: a document signed with SMS verification by two parties = 2 × 0,88 AC = 1.76 AC – the price already includes the signature and the SMS code (0,70 AC signature + 0,18 AC SMS; SMS price calculated for Poland). A simple signature (SES) is applied without identity verification.

Is this GDPR-compliant?+

Yes. The electronic signature is eIDAS-compliant and valid across the entire EU, and for each document you can order a signature certificate reflecting the full history and metadata – who signed, when, and by what method – sealed with our stamp, which guarantees its authenticity and immutability. We sign a data processing agreement with clients, and you control access to folders through permissions.

We already use another platform – is switching difficult?+

No. We help migrate your document templates and set up your process from scratch, free of charge. There’s no fixed-term contract – since you only pay for actual usage, you can run both systems in parallel and switch at your own pace. If, after testing, you decide to stick with your current provider, you simply don’t top up your account.
