Coming soon: payments arrive in a fast-follow release.
Approving an errand’s purchase from the connector arrives with payments. When your agent has something ready to buy, it stops. Nothing is purchased until you decide — your agent cannot approve a purchase for you, from any surface. From the connector, you approve with your passkey, on a Sumvin page in your own browser.

Your agent asks for authorisation

Once your agent has assembled a purchase, it asks you to authorise it. A Stamped Mandate is proposed, and it waits for your signature. From the connector, this step arrives with payments.

Review it

Coming soon, with payments. Your agent can tell you an errand is waiting at pending_approval, but can’t approve it for you.
When you review it, you see three things:
  • The statement — what your agent is asking to do, in plain language, including any conditions (a price ceiling, which sellers qualify).
  • The spend ceiling — the most it could ever authorise. Read this separately from the statement: two requests can use identical wording and still carry different ceilings, so the ceiling is always shown on its own line.
  • When it expires.

Approve

Coming soon, with payments. You’ll approve in your own browser with your passkey, the one you created at the end of verification.
Once you approve, your agent can act — but only within the ceiling and conditions you just signed.

Or decline

Declining is final. It cancels the errand and releases anything it had reserved. Nothing is signed, and nothing is spent.
Coming soon, with payments. Until then, you can ask your agent to cancel the errand.
If a mandate expires before you act on it, approving is no longer possible — decline it and ask your agent to try again.
