STACKIT and axxessio launch EU-operated e-signature service Sign2X
With Sign2X, STACKIT from the Schwarz Group and axxessio GmbH are launching a new e-signature solution operated within the EU. The application was specifically developed to meet the requirements of public authorities, medium-sized enterprises, and regulated industries. The market launch marks an important step for organizations that need to implement digital contract processes securely, legally binding, and in full compliance with the GDPR.
Digital sovereignty as a key success factor
Many internationally operating e-signature services are subject to extraterritorial access laws such as the US CLOUD Act. For numerous organizations, this creates a significant risk to the integrity and confidentiality of sensitive data.
Sign2X addresses this challenge directly:
The solution is operated exclusively in the sovereign data centers of the STACKIT Cloud. All data remains entirely in Germany or Austria and is processed there. Users therefore retain full control over their information at all times—an essential building block of modern digital sovereignty.
Legally compliant electronic signatures according to European standards
Sign2X meets all requirements of the European eIDAS Regulation and therefore enables legally valid electronic signatures. Organizations can have contracts and documents signed digitally and in a legally secure manner, without relying on paper-based processes.
Technology that creates efficiency
The solution combines the scalable, high-performance infrastructure of the STACKIT Cloud with the user-friendly application from axxessio GmbH. Key features include, among others:
-
Hosting and data processing 100% in Germany and Austria
-
Full data sovereignty with no access from third countries
-
Legally valid electronic signatures in accordance with eIDAS
-
Accelerated digital workflows and paperless processes
-
AI-powered document recognition to reduce manual effort
-
Flexible delivery of signature requests via email, link, or SMS
-
White-label options for individual brand customization
Developed for security-critical environments
With Sign2X, STACKIT and axxessio primarily address organizations with high requirements for data protection, compliance, and confidentiality. These include public authorities, healthcare organizations, the financial sector, and industrial companies with sensitive data assets.
A shared vision
axxessio and STACKIT share the goal of establishing an EU-operated, data-protection-compliant e-signature solution that meets the highest standards of security and independence. The market launch underscores both companies’ commitment to enabling trustworthy digital contract processes within the European Union.
