Notarize vs NotaryCam pricing and Proof vs NotaryCam costs for business and real estate notarizations

For one-document notarizations NotaryCam is cheaper, 25 USD against about 33 USD on Proof Pro, because NotaryCam has no identity or signing fee. For document sets, Proof is cheaper, because its extra seals cost 15 USD while NotaryCam prices every seal at 25 USD. For real estate, Proof's published title pricing (150 USD for a mortgage package with a network notary) is lower than NotaryCam's closings, which start at 199 USD.

If your team notarizes every week, neither per-session model is the cheapest answer. A plan with sessions included turns a bill that moves with every seal and signer into one fixed number.

Proof figures come from proof.com/pricing and NotaryCam figures from notarycam.com/pricing, both checked on October 6, 2026. Both vendors change prices, so confirm before you sign.

The seal line decides most business bills. A corporate resolution, an affidavit and a power of attorney in one session is three seals: 30 USD of extra seals on Proof, 50 USD on NotaryCam. The identity line decides small bills: Proof's 8 USD of ID and signing fees on a one-signer session is the whole reason NotaryCam wins single documents.

Real estate is where the two vendors price very differently, so title and escrow teams should look at this table rather than the general one.

On published prices Proof is cheaper for full mortgage packages, and both charge 35 USD for a single deed or power of attorney. NotaryCam's add-ons for rush requests, extra documents and late cancellations can move a closing well above 199 USD, so ask for an all-in quote on your typical file. NotaryCam is owned by Stewart, and some agents prefer it for that reason. Title teams also reconcile escrow trust accounts every month, and the closing fees land there: many run that three-way match with bank reconciliation software instead of a spreadsheet, so a cheaper per-closing fee only helps if the invoices are easy to tie out.

Each row is one month at list prices with network notaries, without volume discounts. Proof figures include identity and signing fees on every session.

At four simple notarizations a month NotaryCam is the cheapest option on monthly billing, and we would say so to any buyer. At a dozen one-document sessions NotaryCam and our Business plan cost the same on monthly billing. Once sessions carry two signers and three documents, both per-session vendors cost three to eight times a flat plan, and the gap grows with each session.

Title agencies, law firms and banks often employ commissioned remote notaries. On Proof, using them requires Pro+ at 199 USD a month, and each in-house meeting costs 15 USD plus identity and signing fees, with 5 USD per extra seal or signer. On NotaryCam, the Solo Notary license costs 15 USD a month after a 99 USD onboarding fee, plus 5 USD per signer and 15 USD per seal, capped at 52.50 USD per transaction. More than one notary moves you to an enterprise license by quote.

For one staff notary running 15 two-signer, one-seal sessions a month, that is about 679 USD on Proof Pro+ and about 390 USD on NotaryCam. ENotary Business includes 2 own-notary seats at 299 USD a month, or 149 USD billed yearly, and sessions your notaries run do not use the 12 network sessions in the allowance. See how bring your own notary seats work.

Proof makes sense for lenders and title agencies that want published mortgage package pricing, integrations with closing systems and an enterprise contract. Its business fees also beat NotaryCam on multi-document sessions, because extra seals cost 15 USD instead of 25 USD.

NotaryCam makes sense when signers are abroad. It serves signers in 145 countries and prices signers without a US Social Security number openly at 79 USD, which helps with expats, foreign heirs and overseas sellers. It is also the cheaper choice for occasional single-document notarizations, because there is no identity or signing fee on top of 25 USD.

A flat plan makes sense when notarization is weekly work. Our Notarize alternatives page compares ten vendors in one table, and the NotaryCam alternative page covers NotaryCam's three pricing models in depth.

• Is identity verification charged per signer, per attempt or per session?
• How many seals does our typical document set count as?
• What does a closing cost all in, including rush, extra documents and cancellations?
• What do signers without a US Social Security number pay, and which ID do they need?
• What does a session cost when our own notary is out and a network notary takes it?
• Are volume discounts published, or only on an enterprise contract?

For single documents, yes. NotaryCam charges 25 USD per seal with one signer and no identity or signing fee, while Proof Pro adds 8 USD to its 25 USD meeting. For multi-document sessions Proof is cheaper, since extra seals cost 15 USD on Proof against 25 USD on NotaryCam. A two-signer, three-document session is about 77 USD on Proof and 85 USD on NotaryCam.

Is Notarize the same as Proof?

Yes. Notarize renamed itself Proof in 2023, and its business plans are now sold as Proof Pro, Pro+ and enterprise tiers at proof.com. People still search for Notarize, and the consumer service is still widely known by that name, but the pricing and the platform are Proof's.

How much does NotaryCam charge for a real estate closing?

NotaryCam real estate closings start at 199 USD with a network notary. A single-seal deed, power of attorney or quit claim is 35 USD. Add-ons include 50 USD for rush requests under 24 hours, 50 USD per extra document, 50 USD for signers without a US SSN and 50 USD for same-day cancellations.

Does NotaryCam work for signers outside the US?

Yes. NotaryCam serves signers in 145 countries. Signers without a US Social Security number pay a 79 USD fee on Notarize Now, or a 50 USD add-on on real estate closings, because identity is verified differently when knowledge-based questions tied to US credit records are not available.

What is a cheaper alternative to Notarize and NotaryCam for a business?

For a team running about 12 or more multi-signer sessions a month, a plan with sessions included usually costs less than either. ENotary Business is 299 USD a month, or 149 USD billed yearly, with 12 network sessions of up to 4 signers and 10 documents each plus 2 own-notary seats.

Take last month's notarizations and write down three numbers: sessions, average signers per session and average seals per session. Price that month on Proof, on NotaryCam and on the online notary cost page. If the per-session bills land within a few dollars of a flat plan, keep the flexibility. If they land at two or three times the plan, the decision is already made. For a deeper look at each vendor alone, read Notarize pricing, or compare OneNotary on the OneNotary alternative page.
