DocuSign Plans Explained: Personal, Standard & Business Pro Pricing
Four plans with hidden envelope limits and overage fees. Plus: the flat-fee alternative that costs 90% less.
DocuSign's Four Pricing Tiers
DocuSign offers four main plans. All are per-user pricing except Personal, which is a flat monthly rate:
Personal Plan: $10/month ($120/year)
For individuals and sole proprietors. Includes 5 envelopes (signed documents) per month. No team members. No API access. Basic branding.
Standard Plan: $25/user/month
For small teams. 100 envelopes per user per year. Real-time commenting, team templates, delegated signing, custom branding. Scale costs: add 5 users = $125/month before any overages.
Business Pro Plan: $40/user/month
For scaling companies. Same 100-envelope-per-user-per-year limit. Adds mobile web forms, payment collection, interactive fields, real-time data verification, and bulk send. A 10-person team costs $400/month.
Enterprise Plan: Custom pricing
For organizations with custom envelope limits, org management, 24/7 support, SSO, Salesforce integration. You must contact sales.
The Hidden Cost Problem
These four plans don't tell the full story. Add-ons hit fast:
- SMS delivery: 0.40 USD per message (beyond 5 bonus SMS)
- ID verification: 2.50 USD per attempt (beyond 5 bonus verifications)
- EU Qualified Signature (eIDAS): 10 EUR per recipient
- Data residency: Not available on Personal, Standard, or Business Pro. Enterprise customers who need EU data centers must negotiate custom pricing.
