Case Study: Austin Firefighters Association streamlines payroll and boosts donations with Foxit eSign

How the Austin Firefighters Association Simplified Their Payroll Process and Encouraged Improved Donation and Volunteer Efforts Using Foxit Esign

The Austin Firefighters Association (AFA), a local chapter representing over 1,100 firefighters in Austin, TX, needed to simplify slow, paper-based payroll and donation processes that required printing, scanning, and in-person time—creating delays and weak signer identity assurance. Seeking an easy-to-use, secure e-signature tool to let members approve payroll changes and donate directly from paychecks, the AFA selected Foxit eSign as their electronic signature solution.

Foxit eSign provided a user-friendly, secure platform (certificates of authenticity, 2FA, SOC 2 Type 2, audit trails), extended support during a winter crisis, and onboarding resources that made implementation fast. The result: faster document completion from anywhere, improved identity confirmation, and noticeably better donation engagement—20 people signed up in the first three days of a drive that previously sometimes had zero—while payroll deduction changes became simpler and less time-consuming thanks to Foxit eSign.
