What a four-person practice would pay
A worked example using published list prices. Your own numbers will depend on how many staff send documents and how many packs you send.
Assumption: 4 staff send about 60 signing requests a month (720 a year).
- DocuSign Standard
- £80/mo
- 4 users × £20. The per-user envelope allowance may not cover 720 requests a year, so extra seats or a higher plan could be needed.
- PractiSign Practice
- £39/mo
- 150 packs a month for the whole practice, unlimited staff, or £390 a year paid annually.

DocuSign pricing questions
How much does DocuSign cost in the UK?
DocuSign's published UK eSignature plans, checked on 28 September 2026, start at £8 a month for the Personal plan with 5 envelopes, then £20 and £33 per user per month for the Standard and Business Pro plans, which include an annual envelope allowance per user. Prices exclude VAT and change over time, so check DocuSign's pricing page before you buy.
Is PractiSign a DocuSign alternative for accountants?
Yes. PractiSign is built only for accounting practices. Instead of paying per user, the whole practice shares a monthly allowance of packs, and each pack can hold the accounts, tax computation and representation letter for one client in a single request.
What is the difference between a DocuSign envelope and a PractiSign pack?
Both group several documents into one signing request. A PractiSign pack holds up to 10 PDFs, 10 signers and 25 MB, and reminders or extra fields never use extra packs. Only sending a new pack uses your allowance.
Do I pay for every member of staff?
No. Every PractiSign plan includes unlimited staff within one practice. Team roles control what each person can see, so unlimited seats never means unrestricted access to client documents.
