The short answer is yes. Courts across the United States have confirmed that clicking on a checkbox is akin to a signature on a written contract. Essentially, by clicking I agree or I accept, the consumer provides the mutual assent required to form a legally binding agreement.

?I agree to the terms and conditions as set out by the user agreement.? Or: ?By clicking here, I state that I have read and understood the terms and conditions.? Using a clickwrap method may better protect a business because a user must take proactive measures to agree to terms and conditions.

Checkboxes and Buttons Many agreements are ?signed? by simply checking a box. These clickwrap agreements are among the most common acceptance methods for high-volume contracting. A clickwrap agreement is also known as: click-accept.

To be considered legally binding, a document must include the valid signatures of all parties entering into an agreement and outline all the duties and responsibilities each has to the other(s).

The court requires ?an expressly affirmative act? including the clicking of a checkbox that in effect alerts the user as to the significance of that act. As long as the user expressly takes such action the court feels they have reasonably manifested their assent.

Clicking a button or checking a box in order to indicate your assent fulfills the requirement that ?intent to sign? is demonstrated by the signer. In other words: since the signer has to actively click a button that clearly informs them they are agreeing to a contract, they are showing they intended to sign.
