Krach refused to give details about the company's valuation, which Re/code reports to be $3 billion.

"We don't focus on the valuation, but I can tell you what we do focus on is our customers and their value proposition, said Krach. "I think our growth numbers speak for themselves."

The valuation is driven by the fact that people realize how big the market for digital transactions is worldwide, said Krach. On its website, DocuSign claims its presence in 188 countries.

DocuSign has benefited from partnerships with several large companies allowing it to work with different forms of payment.

"We have a gateway to work with all the payment suppliers," said Krach. "Hence, the strategic relationship with companies like Visa."

Krach said DocuSign has "a chance to change the way business is done and change the way people live their lives."

"Our business is in the long term for centuries to come and building out that DocuSign Global Trust Network," he said.
