Good Grants allows account owners to create contracts which can be assigned to successful applications and signed by applicants.
Create a contract
To create a new contract template, follow these steps:
- In the Manage workspace, navigate to Grants > Contracts
- Click New contract template
- Provide a title for your contract
- Add your contract text to the Content field, employing text formatting (such as Markdown formatting) or merge fields if desired
- Click Save
Assign a contract to an application
When you're ready to assign a contract to a successful grant recipient, follow these steps:
- From the Manage workspace, go to Applications
- Click the name or ID of the application you want to add the contract to
- In the manager's view, open the 'Grant' tab
- Click Add contract under the 'Contracts' heading
- Open the drop-down and select your desired contract
Assign contracts in bulk
If multiple applications should be assigned contracts, you can do so in bulk.
- From the Manage workspace, go to Applications
- Click the checkboxes next to the applications that should have contracts assigned
- Open the Action drop-down
- Choose Add contract
- Select your contract from the drop-down that appears
- Click Add contract
Sign a contract
Once the contract has been saved to the application, it will add a Sign contract button to the applicant's view in the Apply workspace at Applications.
The applicant can read and sign the contract by either drawing their name using their mouse or trackpad on the Draw tab, simply typing in their name using the Type tab, or by uploading a previously created signature in the Upload tab as shown below.

A timestamp for when the contract is signed will appear in the user's profile page along with a link to a PDF of the contract.
