Agreements & e-sign

Your rental agreement, signed before the trip starts

Fleetwire sends your rental agreement to every renter who books, and you can go further: require the signature before they pay, so no reservation confirms without it. No printer, no clipboard, no "I'll sign it at pickup."

Why it matters

An unsigned agreement is a conversation, not a contract

When the paperwork lives on paper, or doesn't get signed at all, you're exposed the moment something goes wrong. With Fleetwire the terms are agreed to, timestamped, and stored with the booking, and you decide whether a renter can pay before signing.

  • Signed before payment, if you choose. Turn on one setting and there's no payment and no confirmed reservation until the agreement is signed.
  • Timestamped and stored. Every signature is dated and kept with the booking record.
  • Your terms, your language. Use your own agreement — mileage, fuel, insurance, liability, all of it.

How it works

Upload once, sign on every booking

Set up your agreement a single time. From then on it's part of the flow, automatically.

1

Add your agreement

Bring your own rental contract and terms — Fleetwire turns it into a signable document (an envelope).

2

Renter signs

The renter reviews and signs on their phone. By default that's right after they book. Require it before payment, and they sign as soon as they submit their details: their dates are held for 30 minutes while they do, and payment comes only after.

3

Filed with the booking

The signed copy is stored on the reservation and emailed to the renter, so both of you have it.

Paperwork that keeps up with you

E-sign lives in the same place as your bookings, payments and deposits: one flow, one record.

Bring your own contract

Your terms, not a generic template. Mileage limits, fuel policy, liability, and more.

Required to book, when you want it

Make signing a condition of booking from your online store. If a renter doesn't sign, nothing is charged and the dates go back on the calendar.

Findable later

Every signed envelope stays attached to its booking, so you can pull it up in seconds if you ever need it.

E-sign questions

Can I use my own rental agreement?

Yes, that's the point. Upload your existing contract and terms, and Fleetwire turns it into the document your renters sign. You're not locked into a generic template.

Is a digital signature enforceable?

Electronic signatures are legally recognized for rental agreements in the US and most jurisdictions. Each signature is captured with a timestamp and stored with the booking as your record.

When does the renter sign?

You choose. By default they book first and sign afterwards, from their confirmation page or the email we send. If you turn on "Require a signed agreement before payment," they sign right after entering their details, before any payment is taken, and the reservation only confirms once they have.

Does requiring a signature apply to every booking?

It applies to bookings made through your online store, on listings that have an agreement attached. Reservations you create yourself in the dashboard aren't blocked; you can send those for signature by email.

Which plans include e-sign?

E-signed agreements are included on the Standard plan and above. See the pricing page for the full breakdown.
