The setup fee is also being waived and no payment information is required, making it a risk-free option for rental owners looking to keep their staff and customers safe during the coronavirus pandemic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cIt\u2019s hard enough for hire companies in this climate. We\u2019ve seen some of the elaborate ways people are getting contracts signed while maintaining their distance, and while the level of innovation was amazing, we knew we could help make it easier,\u201d said CEO Wayne Harris. \u201cSince eSign works independently of other software products, it\u2019s able to help the entire rental community, not just Point of Rental users.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">eSign allows businesses to collect secure signatures via email or a tablet in-store, which makes it easy to practice proper social distancing and will provide benefits even when the current pandemic is over.
