Need Signatures and Payments? Go Beyond Google Forms.
Create registration forms that collect payment and agreements that collect a signature. Build and edit in ChatterForms, then share one link or embed the form on your website.
E-signatures and Stripe payments require Basic or Pro. Stripe processing fees apply.

Registration and payment, together.
Collect attendee details and the registration fee in the same form. Connect your Stripe account and add a payment field in the builder.
Put the signature where the agreement is.
Add typed or drawn signatures to service agreements, consent forms, and waivers. Keep the signature with the submitted answers.
Ask the questions that matter.
Show or hide fields based on previous answers. Add calculated fields when you need a score or total, and choose a traditional or one-question-at-a-time format.

Start with one form.
- Bring a blank PDF, an image, or an accessible public form URL. Review the generated draft, configure the features you need, and test it before publishing.
- Form conversion does not migrate historical responses, account settings, or integrations.
When this is not the right replacement
Stay with Google Forms if:
- Your team already lives in Google Workspace and Sheets-native responses are enough
- You mainly need quizzes, collaboration, and simple branching
- You want Gemini-assisted creation on an eligible Workspace plan
