How are signing agents typically paid?
Short answer
Per completed assignment, invoiced to the signing service or title company, usually on net-30 or net-45 terms. Direct title work often pays faster and at higher rates.
Full explanation
Track every assignment: date, client, fee quoted, print costs, mileage, invoice date, and payment received. Unpaid invoices are the single largest avoidable loss in the signing business, and the notaries who get paid are the ones who invoice immediately and follow up on schedule.
