How it gets signed

  1. 1Choose «Use this template», fill in the fields and review the full brand ambassador contract.
  2. 2Send it by WhatsApp or email. The other party opens the link on their phone without an account.
  3. 3They tap the brown bar at the bottom that says «Sign as …» and draw their signature once.
  4. 4Everyone gets the signed PDF with its signature certificate. Anyone can check it at signsolu.com/verificar.

The signing screen tells each signer that signing means agreeing to sign electronically. It links to the electronic signature disclosure that the ESIGN Act asks for.

What you get once everyone signs

  • The signed PDF. The final brand ambassador contract with every drawn signature in place.
  • The signature certificate. It lists each signer and the date and time of each signature.
  • A record you can check. The folio on the certificate opens the document history at signsolu.com/verificar.
  • Reminders. Turn them on and SignSolú reminds every signer who has not signed yet.

Your first ten documents are free and need no card.

What the law says

The FTC Endorsement Guides, 16 CFR 255.5, say a material connection between an endorser and the seller must be disclosed clearly and conspicuously when the audience would not expect it. Payment and free or discounted products count as material connections.

Clause 5 puts that duty in writing, so both sides know what each post must show.

Brands and ambassadors share that responsibility. Brands usually monitor posts and ask for corrections when a disclosure is missing.

The ESIGN Act, 15 U.S.C. 7001 gives an electronic signature the same legal effect as one on paper. A contract cannot be denied effect only because it was signed electronically.

Disclosure that viewers actually see

A disclosure hidden after "more" or among twenty hashtags does not help viewers. Put it at the start of the caption or in the video itself.

Use the platform's paid partnership label where it exists. Many brands ask for both the label and a short "#ad".

Content rights and paid ads

Reposting on the brand's page is one use. Running the content as a paid ad is another, and ambassadors usually charge more for it.

Clause 8 names the period and whether ads are included. When the period ends, the brand stops using the content in new ads.

Signing with many ambassadors

Brands with ambassador programs send the same agreement to dozens of creators. Save it as a template and change only the names and fees.

Each creator signs from their phone. The brand keeps every signed agreement with its certificate in one folder.

Example of a six-month program

A nutrition brand signs a running creator for six months at USD 1,200 a month plus 10% on sales through her code. She posts twice and shares four stories each month.

Every post opens with "#ad" and uses the paid partnership label. The brand may run her best video as an ad for ninety days.

Common mistakes

No disclosure clause. Write it down, even if both sides know the rule.

Vague exclusivity. Name the category, not "competitors".

Unlimited content use. Set a period and say whether paid ads are included.

Measuring results

Agree on what success looks like before the first post. Common measures are reach, clicks and sales through the code.

Ask the ambassador to share platform insights each month. Write that duty into clause 2 if it matters to you.

Results help both sides decide whether to renew. A clear record makes the renewal conversation easy.

Renewing the partnership

Send a short amendment with the new dates, fee and deliverables. The ambassador signs from their phone and the program continues without a gap.

Gifting before a contract

Many partnerships start with a free product. Even then, the creator should disclose the gift when posting about it.

A short gifting agreement with the disclosure rule sets expectations early. It can turn into a full ambassador contract later.

Send it from SignSolú with the product list. The creator signs before the package ships.

Keep every signed agreement and gifting note in one folder. When the program grows, the records are already organized.

Renewals then take minutes, not weeks of back and forth.

Frequently asked questions

Is a brand ambassador contract signed online legally binding?

Yes. The ESIGN Act gives electronic signatures the same effect as handwritten ones. The signed PDF and its certificate show who signed and when.

Does the ambassador need to say the post is paid?

Yes. Clause 5 asks for a clear disclosure on every post, where viewers see it.

Who owns the content?

The ambassador keeps the copyright and licenses it to the brand under clause 8.

Can I pay only in products?

Yes. Write the products and their value in clause 4. The disclosure rule still applies.

Is this the same as an influencer contract?

Yes. Brands use both names for the same kind of agreement.

Can the brand ask to delete a post?

Only if the contract says so. Add that right to clause 3 if you need it.

Can I edit the clauses before sending it?

Yes. After «Use this template» you can change any clause before you send it.
