What Docusign costs

  • 1 sender: $45/mo (Personal ($15/mo monthly) caps at 5 envelopes a month, so the cheapest plan covering 10 is Standard at $45/user/mo on monthly billing (10 envelopes per user a month).)
  • 5 senders: $225/mo (Standard $45/user/mo x 5 = $225; each user may send 10 envelopes a month (50 in total).)
  • 100 API requests: no public price (Not priced: API plans are sold separately from the eSignature plans and their quotas were not checked.)

Plan compared: Standard on monthly billing (10 envelopes per user a month). Prices are USD per month on monthly billing (annual-only plans divided by 12) for standard (simple) electronic signatures.
