Deployment

Ways to use WQ3

WQ3 Cloud, WQ3 API and WQ3 Dedicated are the three ways to use the same WQ3 platform.

One platform

01

WQ3 Cloud

Ready-to-use workspace.

02

WQ3 API

Signing in your apps.

03

WQ3 Dedicated

Private environment.

Which option fits you?

01

WQ3 Cloud

For teams that want to start right away with no technical setup.

02

WQ3 API

For organisations that want signing inside their own systems and apps.

03

WQ3 Dedicated

For organisations with specific isolation and policy requirements.

Common questions

01

Are the features the same in every option?

Yes. Cloud, API and Dedicated are different ways to use the same WQ3 platform.

02

Can we start with one and move later?

Yes. Many teams start on the cloud, then add the API or move to a dedicated environment.

Separate deployment from signature strength

Start your deployment decision with two separate questions: how will your team use WQ3, and what signature level does each agreement need? The three levels are electronic signature, remote signing and token signing. Keeping these decisions separate helps prevent a private environment from being treated as a substitute for choosing the appropriate signature level.

Define a signing policy before settling deployment details. Use electronic signatures for everyday agreements, and remote or token signing for formal or high-value contracts, with different levels for individual signers where needed. If the account holder’s identity must be established, add eKYC account verification; it is an add-on, not a fourth signing level.

Assign responsibilities before launch

Map the document journey from preparation through final record keeping, then assign responsibility for each step. Identify who reviews the file before sending, who selects the signers, and who keeps the completed record. A clear pre-send review matters because WQ3 locks documents once they are sent.

For an API project, document which parts of the experience your application should handle, and check that scope against confirmed API capabilities before implementation. For a Dedicated deployment, translate broad policies into specific questions about isolation, access and data handling. These are requirements to resolve during planning, rather than assumptions to make from the deployment name alone.

Include signing evidence in your records plan

Evaluate more than whether a document can be signed: decide how your team will review and retain the result. WQ3 provides a full audit trail and a completion certificate for every completed document. Identify who needs these records for internal review and how your team will keep them within its record-keeping process.

Include document authenticity checks in your workflow acceptance criteria. WQ3’s public check page supports verification without an account, using the QR code and reference, and compares a file’s SHA-256 fingerprint with the stored fingerprint. Train reviewers to distinguish between viewing the signer record and checking that the particular file they hold has not changed.

Review policy requirements and test before expanding

Use your organisation’s privacy and security requirements to prepare a focused deployment checklist. WQ3’s stated protections include TLS 1.2 or newer for data in transit, roles and permissions, and individual signer invitations. Where policy requires a particular data location, retention period or operational arrangement, request explicit confirmation rather than assuming any deployment option includes it.

Run a limited trial with a representative workflow, reviewing signature-level selection, signer access, completed-record handling and authenticity checks. Involve process owners, technical stakeholders and legal reviewers before expanding use. WQ3 is aligned with Egyptian E-Signature Law No. 15 of 2004, but legal effect depends on meeting the applicable conditions, not on the deployment choice alone.

Frequently asked questions

Does a private environment replace signature-level selection?+

No. Choose the signature level for the agreement’s requirements; deployment and signature strength are separate decisions.

Is eKYC required for every deployment?+

eKYC is an account-verification add-on, not a signing level. Require an eKYC-verified account when the account holder’s identity must be established.

Can someone verify a completed document without a WQ3 account?+

Yes. Every signed contract has a public check page accessible using its QR code and reference.

What should we review before sending a document?+

Check the final content, intended signers and each signer’s required signature level; documents are locked once sent.

Does WQ3 Dedicated automatically mean hosting in a specific country?+

The available information describes a private environment, without specifying a hosting location. Confirm any data-residency requirements during planning.
