Notaron Is Now Live in Wisconsin | Remote Online Notary Platform
Notaron Is Now an Approved Remote Online Notarization Provider in Wisconsin
Wisconsin notaries can now use Notaron to perform secure remote online notary.
Notaron is excited to announce that Notaron has been approved as a Remote Online Notarization (RON) technology provider in Wisconsin.
This approval allows Wisconsin-commissioned notaries who meet the state's requirements to use the Notaron platform to perform remote online notarizations, bringing another convenient and secure option to notaries, businesses, and customers throughout Wisconsin.
Remote Online Notarization in Wisconsin
Wisconsin authorized Remote Online Notarization through Wisconsin Act 125. Under Wisconsin law, commissioned notaries performing remote online notarizations must use communication technology approved under standards established by the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions (DFI) and the Wisconsin Remote Notary Council.
Notaron's approval means Wisconsin notaries can now become authorized to use the Notaron platform for eligible remote online notarial acts.
Instead of requiring the signer and notary to meet at the same physical location, RON allows the notarization to take place through secure, real-time audio and video communication.
What Notaron Provides
Notaron was built specifically to make online notarization simple for both the notary and the signer while supporting the security and recordkeeping requirements associated with remote notarization.
The platform includes features such as:
- Secure live two-way audio and video communication
Identity verification and credential analysis
Knowledge-based authentication (KBA) when required
Electronic document signing and notarization
X.509 digital certificates and digital notary seals
Tamper-evident notarized documents
Detailed electronic audit trails
Secure recording and record retention
A browser-based experience that works from a computer or mobile device
The result is a streamlined notarization process that allows customers to complete eligible notarizations online without coordinating an in-person meeting.
What This Means for Wisconsin Notaries
Wisconsin notaries interested in offering remote online notarization services can now use Notaron as their RON technology platform.
Once a Wisconsin notary completes Notaron's onboarding and approval requirements, Notaron can submit the required provider notification to the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions so the notary can be recognized as authorized to perform RON through the platform.
For notaries, this creates an opportunity to expand beyond traditional in-person notarization and serve customers remotely through a secure online platform.
Notaron is designed to give independent notaries access to professional RON technology without requiring them to build or maintain their own remote notarization infrastructure.
What This Means for Wisconsin Customers and Businesses
Remote online notarization can make getting a document notarized substantially more convenient.
Rather than searching for a local notary, scheduling an appointment, traveling to an office, or arranging for a mobile notary to visit, customers can complete eligible notarizations online using their computer or mobile device.
Notaron can support individuals as well as businesses that regularly need documents notarized and want a more streamlined digital process.
Expanding Notaron Across the United States
Wisconsin represents another important step in Notaron's continued expansion as a remote online notarization platform.
Our goal is to make notarization easier to access while giving notaries modern tools to securely serve customers online.
We appreciate the opportunity to work with the Wisconsin Remote Notary Council and Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions throughout the approval process, and we look forward to welcoming Wisconsin notaries onto the Notaron platform.
