Question 2

Payments App

Accepted Answer

The Payments app allows organizations to securely send money to one or more recipients using stablecoins like USDC, DAI, or USDT. You can select contacts from your system or add new ones on the fly, choose the asset from your treasury, and authorize transactions via your Safe multisig. It's designed for clarity, control, and speed.

How it Works

Select a contact Easily search your contact list or add a new contact during payment setup. Contacts can be individuals, teams, or external vendors.
Choose the asset and amount The dropdown menu will only show assets currently held in your treasury. This prevents selection errors and helps streamline compliance with internal controls.
