Transact is the latest transaction management system from Lone Wolf Technologies, the parent company of zipForm and TransactionDesk.

It is a client-focused transaction management system. Transact attaches every document and detail to your client, not the property. This creates a single, adaptable workspace that moves with your client from one offer to the next, reducing duplication and keeping deals on track.

The agent version of Transact, along with zipForm, will remain a member benefit of Texas REALTORS®.

All zipForm and TransactionDesk users logging into their account will encounter a one-time pop-up window similar to this one:

If you want to stay in zipForm/TransactionDesk and not try Transact, you can exit out of the pop-up window by clicking the “X” icon in the top-right corner and proceed without interruption in your zipForm/TransactionDesk account.

How to start Transact:

1. Log into your zipForm/TransactionDesk account.
2. In the pop-up window, click “Create New Transaction” button
3. On your first use of Transact, you will be asked to create a Lone Wolf account. This is a one-time process linking your legacy zipForm/TransactionDesk account to your Transact account and will give you the ability to navigate back and forth between them. (The login process will revert back to single sign-on after completing this step.)
4. Once your Lone Wolf account is created, you will be all set! You will have access to the Transact dashboard and be able to toggle between it and your zipForm/TransactionDesk account if you wish to work in your other transaction management system.

If you wish to try Transact at a later date, you can find walkthrough videos for zipForm users and TransactionDesk users on getting started.

• Transact FAQs Why is Texas REALTORS® launching an alternative to zipForm/Transaction Desk? Texas REALTORS® is working with Lone Wolf Technologies — the owners of zipForm, TransactionsDesk, and Authentisign — to bring REALTORS® new capabilities in transaction management. The new system, called Transact, allows multiple offers and properties to stay connected to the client. In addition, Transact includes increased collaboration features and automatic form updates.

Texas REALTORS® is working with zipForm provider, Lone Wolf, to ensure that functionality in the Transact system meets member needs.

TransactionDesk Broker Edition is not part of your Texas REALTORS® member benefit.
• Can I start using Transact now? Members are welcome to use Transact. However, the soft launch phase of Transact for Texas REALTORS® is intended to be a testing phase.

ZipForm and Transact will be running in parallel for at least a year. If you are a member of NTREIS, Houston Association of REALTORS®, or Unlock MLS (Austin Board of REALTORS®) and currently use TransactionDesk, you will be grandfathered into the Lone Wolf Transact Broker Member Benefit edition.

• Why should I use Transact instead of zipForm or TransactionDesk? Transact includes modern capabilities built for today’s transaction realities, including: – Client-based transactions, so multiple offers and properties stay connected – Lost deal flexibility, allowing you to remove a property and reuse the transaction for a new offer – Share groups to collaborate with assistants, agents, or brokers in one shared transaction – Side-by-side form editing, where updates to parties or clauses automatically update the form – Automatic form updates, so you always start with the most current forms These features reduce rework, prevent errors, and save time — especially in competitive markets. The streamlined system reduces redundancy and saves you time. Agents can create their own templates and view transactions in a card view for easier management.
• Will I lose my contacts, templates, and clauses? The contacts and templates in your member zipForm and TransactionDesk accounts will be automatically imported into Transact. Clauses will not be a part of this process, but you will be able to create clauses in Transact.

If a member retains their zipForm or TransactionDesk account, they will have access to historical files that were created in zipForm and TransactionDesk throughout the required document retention period.

• Will I lose my existing transactions if I start using Transact? No. Your historical transactions and records from zipForm and TransactionDesk remain available for reference and record-keeping. Nothing is deleted or lost when you begin using Transact.

To our knowledge there are no plans to integrate Docusign into the Transact system.
