Introducing the BoldSign PHP SDK for Effortless E-Signature Integration

We’re excited to announce the launch of the BoldSign PHP SDK! If you’re a PHP developer looking to integrate e-signatures into your applications, this SDK is here to make your work simpler. With just a few lines of code, you can easily add e-signature functionality to your PHP projects.

Why e-signature integration can be tricky

You might struggle with e-signature integration because:

  • Complex integrations are slowing you down : Most e-signature APIs require extensive boilerplate code and complex setups. This increases development time and adds unnecessary complexity.

  • Time-consuming workflows are holding you up : Managing document creation, sending, tracking, and retrieval often involves multiple API calls. Without a structured approach, you’ll spend more time on integration than on building your core product.

  • You don’t have a PHP-specific SDK : PHP is one of the most widely used languages, yet many e-signature providers don’t offer dedicated PHP SDKs. This forces you to build custom wrappers or use generic HTTP clients, making the process cumbersome.

Why BoldSign PHP SDK?

The BoldSign PHP SDK is designed to solve these challenges, making e-signature integration seamless and efficient. It’s built to help you:

  • Send documents for signing with just a few lines of code.
  • Embed signing within your application for a smooth user experience.
  • Track document status in real time.
  • Retrieve signed documents and audit trails effortlessly.
  • Customize the signing experience to match your brand.

Whether you’re working on a contract management system or another PHP-based application, this SDK makes e-signature integration simple, secure, and seamless.
