Checked by email PRO

The link shows only the cover until your client enters a 6 digit code from their email, so a forwarded link reveals nothing.

Questions

Something else? Write to support@sumocat.app.

When should I use a service agreement?

For any client work that runs longer than a few days or costs more than a small invoice. Writing down the scope, payment and changes up front prevents most disputes.

Is this service agreement legally binding?

It is a plain language sample, not legal advice. Whether a contract holds up depends on where you work and what it says, so have a lawyer check your terms before you rely on them.

Can my client sign it online?

Yes, with Sumocat Pro. Build the contract from blocks in the app, sign it and send it. Your client enters a code from their email and signs by typing or drawing, with no app or account. Sumocat Pro sends 5 contracts a month per business; Pro Plus has no monthly limit.

Is the template free?

Reading it and downloading the sample PDF are free. Creating, signing and sending contracts in the Sumocat app is part of Sumocat Pro.
