Now Live: Outgoing Transfer Rules in Slash
Not every payment should move without a second set of eyes. With Slash, you can now set rules for outgoing transfers, deciding what gets auto-approved and what needs review.
Your business needs visibility and control over the money leaving your account. Some transfers can move instantly but others require a second set of eyes. With Slash’s Outgoing Transfer Rules, you decide which payments are auto-approved and which require manual review before they go out.
Slash now lets teams set approval rules for outgoing transfers, giving admins visibility and control over large or sensitive payments. It’s a clean, built-in way to manage money flow without relying on Slack messages or scattered tools.
How It Works
Click into the Payments section of your dashboard, then click Payment Policies in the top right corner.
From the Outgoing Transfer Approval Rule section, you can:
- Choose whether outgoing payments are auto-approved or require review
- Define exactly which roles or team members must approve payments
Once enabled, any new transfer initiated by a teammate will be routed to the Requests tab for review directly within the Payments page.
Managing Approvals
Pending requests are visible inside the Requests tab on the Payments page. From there, admins or approvers can:
- Review full payment details
- Approve or reject with a single click
- See all prior approvals, including who approved and when
Once approved, the payment is sent like any other and the approver’s name and timestamp are saved for record keeping.
Why It Matters
As your team grows, payments increase in both volume and sensitivity. More people get involved, and without clear workflows, that leads to friction, delays, or worse: money leaving without anyone realizing or authorizing.
Payment Approvals in Slash give you a clean system:
- Admins stay in control of sensitive transactions
- Operators get clarity on what needs sign-off
- Everyone sees what was approved, by whom, and when
Built for Real Operations
Say you're an e-commerce agency working with overseas contractors. You don’t want every transfer auto-approved but you also can’t afford long delays. With Outgoing Transfer Approvals, junior team members can initiate requests, and finance leads can greenlight them instantly.
Or you're a construction firm managing multiple sites. Project managers handle the on-the-ground vendors, but you want final review on high-dollar wires. Now you can route approvals to any owner or admin without back and forth.
It’s better workflows for teams that actually move money.
