Services & Fees
Bright Future 123 now has two convenient service options:
In-Office Notary service
Bright Future’s office is centrally located on Main Street in downtown Pleasanton. When you visit our office there is no travel fee and your notarizations can be performed in privacy and comfort. Walk-ins are welcome during office hours:
- Monday – Friday 9:00am to 5:00pm
- Saturday and Sunday by appointment
Services before and after office hours are available by Appointment
It is recommended that you call ahead or schedule an appointment in advance to ensure prompt service as I may be on a mobile appointment.
Mobile Notary Service
Bright Future will travel to your home, business, or mutually agreed upon location to serve your notary needs. A travel fee may apply in addition to the state regulated notarization fee, but may be waived in certain circumstances.
All notarization fees are based on the California Government Code §8211. California notary code allows notaries to charge a maximum cap of $15 per each notarized signature and an additional travel fee, which must be disclosed separate from the notarization charges.
Basic Notary Services
- $15.00 per signature plus travel fee, if requested
- 5 or more notarizations qualify for Bright Future’s 20% volume discount.
