How RON transforms lending operations

The notarization bottleneck has historically been one of the last friction points in digital lending. RON eliminates it entirely.

The traditional problem

3–7 day scheduling delays

Borrowers must find an available notary, schedule in advance, and drive to a location — often missing rate lock windows.

High fall-through rates

Borrowers who can't easily get to a notary abandon the loan process entirely — especially in rural areas or for elderly borrowers.

Weak audit trails

Traditional notary stamps provide no video evidence, no identity verification record, and no cryptographic tamper-evidence.

The Zignature RON solution

Same-day or next-hour closings

Borrowers notarize documents within hours of receiving them. Rate lock windows protected. Fall-through rates drop dramatically.

Serve any borrower, anywhere

Rural borrowers, elderly clients, military families, and out-of-state buyers all complete the full notarized closing package from home.

5-part evidentiary package

Video recording + identity verification + KBA record + PKI seal + notary journal — far stronger than any ink notarization.

Financial services RON — frequently asked questions

Can mortgage loan packages be notarized remotely?

Yes. In 40+ RON-authorized states, mortgage loan packages — including promissory notes, deeds of trust, and closing disclosures — can be notarized via live video session. Lenders receive MISMO-compliant certified documents that meet secondary market requirements for conforming loans.

How does RON reduce loan turn-times?

With traditional notarization, borrowers must schedule an in-person appointment — often 3–7 days out. With Zignature RON, borrowers complete identity verification and connect with a notary the same day they receive closing documents. This typically reduces turn-times by 3–7 business days, protects rate lock windows, and dramatically reduces fall-through rates.

Is RON accepted for HELOC closings?

Yes. HELOC closings are among the most common RON use cases in financial services. Homeowners can sign and notarize their HELOC security instrument and opening documents from home — dramatically reducing the abandonment rate caused by scheduling friction with traditional notary visits.

What identity verification does Zignature use?

Zignature uses a multi-factor identity verification process meeting MISMO and state RON requirements: (1) government-issued ID scan with document authentication, (2) liveness detection to confirm physical presence, and (3) knowledge-based authentication (KBA) using questions from credit bureau data. The complete identity record is archived as part of the tamper-evident audit package.

Can we integrate RON into our loan origination system?

Yes. Zignature offers a full REST API that can be embedded into your LOS, CRM, or borrower portal. Send documents, trigger RON sessions, receive webhooks on completion, and retrieve notarized packages — all programmatically. See our Developer Portal for API documentation and sandbox access.

Do you offer volume pricing for lenders?

Yes. Lenders and title companies processing 50+ transactions per month qualify for custom volume pricing. Contact our enterprise team at contact us for a pricing discussion. We offer per-transaction, monthly commitment, and prepaid volume packages.
