Skribble: cost, fit and limits
Skribble is an electronic signature service made by Skribble AG in Zurich, Switzerland, that issues simple, advanced and qualified electronic signatures under the EU eIDAS rules, with plans priced either per signature or per user.
What to know first
Skribble sells four routes in: Starter with no subscription and a fee per signature, Team at €23 per user per month, Pro at €36, and a custom Scale tier for more than 20 users. Prices are from the EU pricing page, excluding VAT. The pages opened describe signature types and identification, not AI assistance, so the tool earns its place here on signing strength rather than automation.

Who Skribble is best for
Swiss and EU firms needing qualified signatures
Qualified signatures are available on every route, per signature on Starter or from an included pool on Team and Pro, which suits contracts where a handwritten-equivalent signature is required.
Occasional signers
Starter has no subscription, so a person who signs a few documents a year pays €1, €3 or €5 per signature instead of carrying a monthly seat.
Teams that want German, French or Italian screens
The interface and support are offered in German, English, French and Italian, which helps when signers across a Swiss or German company do not all work in English.

What Skribble does
- Qualified electronic signatures
- Skribble offers qualified signatures under eIDAS on Team and Pro and per signature on Starter. Identification for a qualified signature is a one-time €22.50 fee that the EU pricing page says is valid for up to five years.
- 14-day full trial
- A trial gives all Pro features and unlimited users with no credit card. If nobody picks a plan, the account drops to a free version where people can sign when invited but cannot invite others.
- Single sign-on
- Single sign-on over OpenID Connect is listed as a Pro add-on at €2,000 one-time plus €2,490 a year, so identity integration is priced separately from the seat plan.
- Company branding
- Branding of the signing experience is a Pro add-on at €1,400 a year, which matters to firms that send contracts to clients under their own name.
- Multilingual service
- Screens and support come in German, English, French and Italian, and the vendor describes hosting and support as based in Germany and Switzerland, which suits mixed-language Swiss and German teams.
How Skribble handles your data
The privacy policy states that platform servers run in Swiss data centers and that those data centers hold ISO 27001. It lists Swisscom and GlobalSign as partners that provide identification services. Personal data is kept only as long as needed for its purpose and as legal retention duties require, but no retention period for signed documents was found on the pages opened. The pages opened do not say whether customer documents are used to train models, so the vendor's policy was not checked for that point.
Where Skribble falls short in practice
- Included signatures are shared. The pricing page describes the included advanced and qualified signatures as per user per year, yet also says they are pooled per company. A team with uneven signing should ask how the pool is counted before buying.
- User cap is stated two ways. The comparison table caps Team and Pro at 20 users, while the FAQ on the same page mentions up to 50 users with a recommendation of 20. Companies near that size should get the cap confirmed in writing.
- No AI features named. The homepage, pricing page, privacy policy and imprint name no AI capability. Teams that want AI field detection, drafting or summaries need another tool from this category.

Alternatives to Skribble
Skribble: common questions
How much does a qualified signature cost on Skribble?
On Starter a qualified signature costs €5 each, excluding VAT, plus a one-time €22.50 identification fee valid for up to five years. Team and Pro include 72 and 120 advanced or qualified signatures per user per year, with extras at €4.50 and €4 respectively.
Does Skribble have a free plan?
Skribble has a €0 Starter plan with no subscription, but every signature is charged. It also gives a 14-day trial with all Pro features. After the trial, an account without a plan can still sign when invited but cannot invite others.
Where does Skribble store signed documents?
The privacy policy says platform servers are in Swiss data centers, which hold ISO 27001. The pages opened did not give a retention period for signed documents, so ask the vendor for that figure in writing before relying on it.
Does Skribble use AI to prepare documents?
None of the pages opened (homepage, pricing page, privacy policy, imprint) name an AI feature. Skribble describes simple, advanced and qualified signatures only. A buyer who needs AI field detection or drafting should compare the higher ranked tools in this category instead.
Can Skribble connect to single sign-on?
Yes, through OpenID Connect, but it is a Pro add-on listed at €2,000 one-time plus €2,490 a year on the EU pricing page. Company branding is a separate Pro add-on at €1,400 a year, so both raise the cost beyond the seat price.
