FAQ
High-level answers for coaches and instructors.
Can clients sign before their first lesson?
Yes. Share the waiver link in onboarding or confirmation messages so signing happens ahead of time.
Do clients need an account to sign?
No. Signing works online in a web browser on most phones, tablets, or laptops with internet access and no account required.
Can I keep records organized by session or program?
Yes. Simple Waivers stores signed waivers with timestamps and supports downloading records when needed.
Can a parent sign for a child?
Yes. When the participant is a minor, the waiver collects the parent or guardian's name and a separate guardian signature. Whether a parent can waive a child's claims varies by state, so read can minors sign liability waivers before relying on one.
Is a digital waiver as valid as a paper one?
In the United States, the ESIGN Act and UETA give electronic signatures the same legal effect as ink when the signer intends to sign electronically. See paper vs digital waivers.
