For high-assurance or qualified electronic signature (QES) requirements, contact our Enterprise team to discuss your specific compliance needs.
What is the difference between sequential and parallel signing?
What is the difference between sequential and parallel signing?
Aflux supports two multi-signer workflows:
- Sequential signing — signers receive the document one after another, in the order you define. Signer 2 only gets the request after Signer 1 has completed their signature. Use this when approval order matters (e.g., employee → manager → legal).
- Parallel signing — all signers receive the signature request at the same time and can sign in any order. Use this when there is no required sequence and you want the fastest turnaround.
Can I brand my QR codes?
Can I brand my QR codes?

- Custom foreground and background colours
- Logo embedding directly in the centre of the QR code
- Export in PNG, SVG, or PDF format for both screen and print use
