Both options mean that the counterparty receives an email with a link to the agreement. To open the link, either a verification with BankID or the PIN code via SMS is needed. The counterparty then has access to the contract and can sign or return it.   <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"779\" src=\"https:\/\/qnova.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/image-16.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13017\" srcset=\"https:\/\/qnova.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/image-16.png 1024w, https:\/\/qnova.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/image-16-300x228.png 300w, https:\/\/qnova.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/image-16-768x584.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the agreement is to be signed with BankID, the counterparty must sign with BankID, which determines the BankID signing method.

Recommendation is to write a short explanation. This is because it facilitates the overview on the Home page and when searching for agreements.
