Certifaction: Privacy-first eSigning
The global leader in privacy-first eSigning
In an era where digital sovereignty has become a strategic imperative, Certifaction provides the ideal eSigning solution for organizations seeking to digitize their workflows while retaining full control over their data.
Our USP
Zero Document Knowledge Technology
At the core of our value proposition is Zero Document Knowledge: Certifaction guarantees document confidentiality by processing and encrypting documents locally. As a result, sensitive information stays exactly where it belongs — with the parties meant to have access to it.
Certifaction technology uniquely combines the ease and scalability of a SaaS platform with the robust security typically associated with on-premise deployments — delivering the best of both worlds.
Built for enterprises, Certifaction is trusted across highly regulated industries such as healthcare, financial services, and the public sector — domains where data protection, compliance, and sovereignty are critical.
A Modular White-Label Solution
Delivered as a white-label solution through renowned enterprise partners, Certifaction’s comprehensive and modular architecture includes:
Advanced front-end capabilities such as a user-friendly signature page, PDF handling, form-filling, workflow management, digital twin, templating, selective and mass signing, and collaborative teamspaces.
Regulated certificates, including qualified electronic signatures (QES) and organizational seals, fully compliant with both eIDAS and ZertES legal frameworks.
Integrated Identity Proofing Services for streamlined, secure, and compliant user verification.
Our Story
Redefining Trust in eSigning
Certifaction AG is an owner-managed company, backed by leading investors, headquartered in Zurich, Switzerland, with a subsidiary in Munich, Germany. Since our founding in 2020, we’ve become synonymous with secure, privacy-first eSigning. By continuously innovating and exceeding customer expectations, we are helping shape the future of digital signatures.
When we decided to launch Certifaction, many said it was the worst possible timing — right at the onset of the global Covid health crisis. But we believed in our vision and moved forward with conviction: digitization should never come at the expense of digital sovereignty and privacy.
We started with two visionary customers who placed their trust in us. Their early support confirmed what we already knew: Zero Document Knowledge wasn’t just a feature — it was the critical element the eSigning industry had been missing.
We never set out to be just another eSigning provider. Yes, we entered the market with a fundamentally different approach: one that places privacy at its core. Today, we continue to raise the bar for secure digital transactions, delivering solutions that redefine what trust means in eSigning.
Striving to do what’s right every single day
At Certifaction, our culture is rooted in trust, empowerment, and accountability. We believe that great ideas and innovation thrive when people feel safe, respected, and free to be themselves.
We’re committed to building a positive work environment — one where every voice matters, and everyone is encouraged to take initiative, speak up, and grow. We trust our team members to take ownership of their work, make meaningful contributions, and challenge the status quo. With that trust comes empowerment — the freedom to experiment, fail fast, and learn continuously.
Open communication is a cornerstone of how we work. We value direct, respectful dialogue and offer feedback regularly — not just when things go wrong, but also to celebrate wins, encourage improvement, and support each other’s development.
We show up for each other. You can count on us to listen with intention, speak with honesty, and act with integrity. Whether in moments of success or challenge, we strive to do what’s right — for our team, our partners, and our mission — every single day.
