a360inc, a leading technology and outsourcing solutions provider to the legal and financial services industries, announced today an expanded relationship with Covius Settlement Services to include Remote Online Notarization (RON) technology. The addition of RON is a natural expansion of a360’s long relationship with Covius as a notary provider and an effective response to the marketplace’s desire for paperless and contactless transactions.

“The market is changing; lenders and underwriters now see this technology as an indispensable tool and within three years we’re likely to see a large percentage of notary transactions taking place via RON,” said a360inc’s Chief Executive Officer Scott Brinkley. “By working together with Covius, we’re enabling RON technology solutions across the lifecycle of a loan.”

Joe Chappell, Executive Vice President at Covius Settlement Services, added, “RON technology provides an array of benefits to the doc execution process including the opportunity to provide a more flexible and user-friendly signing experience for the consumer while improving quality, and delivering significant cost savings. a360inc has been an excellent partner in supporting our overall consumer experience and we are excited to work with them in providing innovative technology-enabled solutions to our clients.”
