Edit: dumb question from me. I didn't follow the flow because I don't have a chase account, so I wasn't aware it was a multi-part form.

I'm likewise not an attorney, but how hard would it be to do a simple "Type your name here to represent your signature" type of deal? This is the most common lay practice I've seen, with the more common CYA practice for electronic records being e.g. what Docusign or Adobe offer, or the use of cryptographic signatures.

If you fill in your info on the page and click the buttom, this happens as the final part of the flow before it submits.
"By checking this box, I certify that my account information is accurate and I want to e-sign and mail this document to chase to opt out of binding arbitration."

The document is not actually present.

Not a lawyer. I'll make sure we have a legal opinion addressing this if we don't already.
