NotaryLive pricing and cost compared with a monthly online notary plan for teams

NotaryLive sells three tiers. Basic is pay per use at 25 USD per session, which covers the first 25 pages, all seals and all signatures in that session. Business is a subscription for teams of 1 to 5 users, listed at 79 USD a month or 708 USD a year, and each network session costs 23 USD on top. Business Premier is listed from 99 USD a month with volume discounts, unlimited users, an API and the option to bring your own notaries.

The headline 25 USD is honest for a single signer. The real NotaryLive cost for a business depends on how many sessions you run, how many people sign in each one and whether those people sit in the same room. Signers in different locations add 23 USD per session on the Business plan.

Bringing your own notaries is a Business Premier feature at NotaryLive, which means a sales conversation and a custom quote. That is reasonable for a large organization, but it leaves a title agency or a law firm with one or two commissioned staff notaries without a published price to plan against.

ENotary Business includes 2 own-notary seats at 299 USD per month, and sessions your notaries run do not use the monthly allowance. You keep 12 network notary sessions for the days your notary is booked or out, and Scale adds 10 own-notary seats at 799 USD. See how bring your own notary seats work.

NotaryLive is a solid pick in several situations, and a comparison that skipped them would not help you.

• You notarize a handful of documents a month. With no subscription and 25 USD per session, Basic costs less than any plan below about four sessions.
• Your sessions carry many documents but one signer. Seals and signatures are free inside a session, and the first 25 pages are included.
• You want long storage without a paid tier. NotaryLive lists 10-year document storage on every plan.
• You need in-person electronic notarization (IPEN) next to remote sessions. NotaryLive offers it on Business Premier.

ENotary fits better when notarization is routine work: steady weekly volume, several signers in different places, a single monthly figure for finance, and your own notaries next to network notaries without a custom contract.

• Title and escrow teams whose buyers, sellers and lenders sign from different cities. See notary and title services.
• Law firms and lenders notarizing affidavits, powers of attorney and loan documents with co-signers in two places. See notary services for business.
• HR and operations teams with more than five people who send documents for notarization. See company notary.
• Offices with one or two staff notaries that want their seats priced up front, with network notaries for overflow.

Count sessions, extra signers and multi-location fees per month. The multi-location line usually explains a bill that grew faster than expected.

One ENotary session covers up to 4 signers and 10 documents. Match your average month to a plan on the online notary cost page.

Upload the documents, invite the signers and let identity checks run before the notary joins. Keep NotaryLive Basic for the rare one-off if you like.

Notarized documents and recordings stay with the platform that created them. Export what your retention policy requires before you close an account.

How much does NotaryLive cost?

NotaryLive costs 25 USD per session on its pay-as-you-go Basic plan, including the first 25 pages and every seal and signature. Each additional signer adds 5 USD and an on-demand witness 10 USD. The Business plan is 79 USD a month or 708 USD a year, plus 23 USD per completed session after one free session a month.

How much is NotaryLive Business per month?

NotaryLive lists Business at 79 USD per month on monthly billing, or 708 USD per year, which works out to 59 USD a month. The subscription covers 1 to 5 users, templates and a shared dashboard. Network sessions are billed on top at 23 USD each, with one free session every month.

Does NotaryLive charge for additional seals?

No. NotaryLive does not charge for additional seals or signatures inside a session, and the first 25 pages are included. You pay 5 USD for each extra block of 25 pages, 5 USD per additional signer and, on Business, 23 USD more when participants join from different locations.

Can I use my own notaries on NotaryLive?

Yes, on Business Premier, which lets you use your own notaries, NotaryLive's notaries or both. Premier is listed from 99 USD a month and priced by quote for volume. On ENotary, 2 own-notary seats come with the Business plan at 299 USD a month, and their sessions do not use the allowance.

Is NotaryLive legit?

Yes. NotaryLive is an established remote online notarization provider whose sessions are run by commissioned online notaries with ID credential analysis and knowledge-based authentication, and it states that its notarizations are accepted in all 50 states. The practical question for a business is cost at volume, not legitimacy.

What is a cheaper alternative to NotaryLive for a busy team?

From about 12 sessions a month, or earlier when signers join from different places, a monthly plan with sessions included costs less. ENotary Business is 299 USD per month for 12 network notary sessions with up to 4 signers and 10 documents each, plus 2 own-notary seats.
