Frequently asked questions

Is Tamgara a free alternative to DocuSign?
Yes. Filling in, signing, 1,000+ templates and sending via a signing link are free forever and usable without an account. Only the optional fax sending (from €0.50) and, in future, AI document recognition are paid.
Are signatures made with Tamgara valid?
Tamgara creates a simple electronic signature, which is accepted for the vast majority of everyday documents (agreements, powers of attorney, protocols, consents). Where the law requires a specific format or a qualified signature, a provider offering that standard is the right choice. See Legal.
When is DocuSign the better choice?
When you need qualified signatures, enterprise workflows, CRM integrations or compliance certifications. For occasional signing and sending of individual documents without a subscription, Tamgara is the simpler solution.
Where are my documents stored?
When you self-sign with Tamgara nothing is uploaded — the document stays in your browser. When you send to others for signing, the data sits on servers in Germany and is deleted automatically after 60 days at the latest.
