How do payment approvals work?

Set approval rules for your team's payments

Approvals let you decide which payments need an Admin's OK before they're sent. You set the rules for each Payment Ops member.

Which approval rules can I set?

Rule

How it works

No approval required

The member can send payments without approval

One admin approval

Every payment the member requests needs an Admin's approval

One admin approval above a limit

The member can send freely up to a limit. Above it, payments need approval

For the limit, you choose a cycle (daily, weekly, monthly or yearly), an amount per cycle and a single transaction limit. Limits are set in digital dollars (USDs).

Admins never need approval for their own payments.

How do I set or change the rule?

  1. Click 'Team' in the left menu and select the member

  2. Click the three dots (⋯) and select 'Edit'

  3. Under 'Money movement permissions', choose the rule and limits

  4. Click 'Save changes'

What happens when a payment needs approval?

The member clicks 'Send request for approval'. The payment shows as pending approval and isn't sent until an Admin approves it. We email Admins when a new request comes in.

When a Payment Ops member adds a new recipient, that also needs an Admin's approval.

How do I approve a request?

  1. Click 'Tasks' in the left menu

  2. Open the request and check the details

  3. Click 'Approve' or 'Decline'

  4. Enter the verification code we send to your email

Can the amount change at approval?

Yes. For payments in another currency, we use the exchange rate at the moment of approval, so the final amount may differ slightly from the request. We also check the balance again, so the payment fails if there isn't enough money.
