A Yousign alternative for simple signatures
Yousign is a French e-signature provider that is becoming Youtrust: its website moved to the new name in July 2026 and the app will follow by 2027, with prices unchanged. It covers simple, advanced and qualified signatures plus identity checks. Here is a plain comparison, with Youtrust figures read on their pricing pages on 10 November 2026.
The short answer
Stay with Yousign (Youtrust) if you are a French or EU business that needs advanced or qualified signatures, SMS codes, identity, company or bank checks, electronic seals, or Zapier and HubSpot connectors. Its One plan (9 EUR excl. VAT a month, billed yearly) is also cheaper than our Pro if 10 requests a month are enough for you. SignQuick fits people who sign their own PDFs for free and send a few documents a month without a yearly plan: 5 sends a month are free, then 2.99 EUR per send, or Pro at 12 EUR a month for unlimited sends.

When switching makes sense
The Yousign free plan allows 2 signature requests a month. If you need a few more but do not use advanced signatures, SMS codes or identity checks, a paid Yousign plan may be more than you need.
SignQuick makes sense when a simple electronic signature is enough for your documents: quotes, freelance contracts, NDAs, internal forms or most commercial agreements between businesses.
- You send between 2 and 5 documents a month, which is free on SignQuick
- You send more than 10 a month as a single user and do not want a per-user plan
- You do not need SMS codes, identity checks or advanced signatures
What you lose
Yousign is a trust services company. SignQuick is a small product that only produces simple electronic signatures, with no identity check.
If a document must carry an advanced or qualified signature, for example because a law, an administration or a bank requires it, keep Yousign or another qualified provider for that document.
- Advanced (AES) and qualified (QES) signatures
- SMS codes, identity, company and bank verification
- Electronic seals and electronic archiving
- Zapier, HubSpot and other connectors, SSO
- Word uploads (SignQuick accepts PDF files only, up to 50 MB)
What you gain
Signing your own PDF is free and unlimited, without an account, and the file does not leave your browser when you sign it yourself. Yousign also offers unlimited self-signature, but inside an account.
Five sends a month are free, and after that each send costs 2.99 EUR without any plan. Pro costs 12 EUR a month or 120 EUR a year for unlimited sends and signers, per account rather than per user, and you can cancel at any time.
Documents you send are encrypted in your browser (AES-256-GCM) before upload and hosted in Germany. Each signed file gets an audit trail with a certificate and a SHA-256 seal with a QR code, verifiable at signquick.app/verify.
How to move your documents (PDF only)
There is no import from Yousign. Download your signed documents and their audit trails and keep them in your own storage before you close the account.
For each template, keep the source document as a PDF, upload it to SignQuick and place the fields again. Word files need to be saved as PDF first.
Let pending requests finish in Yousign, and check when your yearly plan renews so you do not pay for a year you will not use.
