Since releasing the Smartwaiver API in 2012, web-based customer management services have been able to seamlessly integrate Smartwaiver into their own software. This has been a big time saver for the hundreds of customers that use a Smartwaiver integration as well as for the millions of participants that sign their waivers.

Today, we’re excited to announce the official release of Smartwaiver API v4.0 - a new fully RESTful API version built from the ground up! 


This new version includes some major improvements:

  • Faster responses and more stable performance
  • Thorough and easier to read documentation
  • Better error handling
  • Additional RESTful routes for waiver templates and webhook configuration
  • Updated waiver model for easier 3rd party integrations
  • All responses now use JSON instead of XML
  • Three SDKs are now provided for: PHP, Ruby and Python.  All are available on github with comprehensive examples included.


A full list of API calls and new v4.0 documentation can be found here: https://api.smartwaiver.com/docs/v4/

Use of the Smartwaiver API is included on all plans so there  are no extra fees. If you’ve always wanted your web based system to link up with your smart waivers, let your CRM or POS representative know that Smartwaiver has a new and improved open RESTful API to use. 


Note: Smartwaiver API v3.0 will be supported through 2017.  If you need assistance with your v3.0 API keys, please contact us.

Thousands of businesses around the world rely on the Smartwaiver Kiosk app each day to streamline the waiver signing process at their facility. The Kiosk app allows you to turn your tablet into a dedicated waiver signing station - "locking down" your device so only your smart waiver is shown. The app also allows you to use our patent-pending Auto Photo Capture feature on your waiver.

Today, we’re happy to announce that we’ve made a few improvements to the app we think you’ll like.


1. Enhanced Speed and Reliability
We got under the hood and cleaned up some code so the app will run even faster on supported, updated tablets.

If you're currently using the Smartwaiver Kiosk app on an iPad*, simply update your app from the App Store.

If you're using the app on an Android device, you'll want to remove your old app from your device and install the new Smartwaiver Kiosk App from the Google Play Store.
