A Truly Cheaper Alternative to DocuSign Without Hard Limits
Direct Answer

SignCEO Standard is $0/month with 3 free envelopes monthly and envelope packs (5 for $10 or 25 for $25) (or 25 for $25 bulk rate) that never expire.

Stop Overpaying for Simple Document Signing
Many businesses overpay for electronic signature software because legacy vendors bundle complex enterprise modules they never use into high-tier subscriptions. Small businesses, independent consultants, and growing teams often find themselves paying steep annual fees just to send a handful of contracts each month.
SignCEO eliminates unnecessary overhead. On our Standard plan, you receive 3 free envelopes sent every single month with no credit card required. If you need more, you can purchase pay-as-you-go envelopes for $2 each or buy a 25-pack for $25 ($1 per envelope). Purchased credits never expire, ensuring you never pay for unused annual allowances.
