Spending Controls
Transfer Limits
Set a transfer limit per day, week, or month.
On This Page
Open Checking → Settings for the selected account. It lists a Daily limit, a Weekly limit and a Monthly limit, and each one is set on its own.
Set a Transfer Limit
Set each limit in U.S. dollars (USD), or leave a window with No cap. Changing one limit keeps the others as they are. Each window shows how much has been spent, how much is left, and when it resets.
| Limit | Spending counted |
|---|---|
| Daily limit | The current 24-hour period, counted from when you turned the limit on |
| Weekly limit | The current 7-day period, counted from when you turned the limit on |
| Monthly limit | The current monthly period, repeating on the same date and time each month (UTC) |
The figures come from your account's saved rules and are counted when money is sent. Transfers that are only waiting in a timelock are not counted until they go out.
Limit Periods
Each limit's periods start when you turn it on. A daily limit turned on at 5 a.m. runs from 5 a.m. to 5 a.m. the next day; a weekly limit runs seven days from that moment; a monthly limit resets on the same date and time each month (UTC), or on the last day of a shorter month.
Resets shows when the current period ends. At that moment the full limit is available again.
For example, suppose you turn on a $100 daily limit at 5 a.m. and your agent spends $60 at 9 a.m. and $40 at 4 a.m. the next morning. Any further spending is refused until 5 a.m., when the full $100 is available again.
Because each period starts fresh, spending can bunch around a reset: under the same limit your agent could spend $100 at 4:59 a.m. and another $100 at 5 a.m., twice the limit within minutes. That is the trade-off for a limit that comes back in full at a time you know. To keep bursts smaller, add a lower daily limit under a weekly or monthly one, per-asset hourly limits, or a timelock that gives you time to cancel.
Changing the amount keeps the current period and what it has counted. Removing a limit and adding it again later starts a new period from that moment.
No Cap and a Limit of 0
No cap removes the limit for that window. Timelocks, account whitelist, connection permissions, and other account rules still apply.
A limit of 0 is not the same as no cap. It blocks all spending in that window, and the account shows Spending blocked until you change it.
Save and Check
Complete any signature request using the wallet or passkey you signed in with. Then check the saved account rules and any pending changes.
Understand a Blocked Transfer
A transfer may be blocked because you have reached a limit, the required funds or network are unavailable, or another account rule prevents it. Check the reason shown. Repeating the request does not increase the amount left to spend. A transfer stopped by a limit when you send it is never created: it does not appear in your history and uses none of the limit.
