The Inbox tab collects notifications for approval requests that need your attention. Approvers can action requests directly from the app without opening the web dashboard.

Inbox notifications

Notifications are grouped into Today and Earlier. Unread notifications are highlighted with a dot and bold text. The inbox receives notifications for:
TypeDescription
Card requestA team member has requested a new card
Expense submissionA team member has submitted an expense for review
Bill paymentA bill payment is awaiting approval
Vendor changesA vendor or payment method has been created or updated
Tapping a notification that still needs a decision opens the approval modal.

Approving or denying a request

When you tap an actionable notification, a modal appears showing the request details and the available actions. Tap Approve or Deny to action the request. The modal closes automatically after your decision. If the request has already been actioned by another approver, the modal shows the current status and can be dismissed.

After approval

  • Card approved — the inbox notification links directly to the card in the Cards tab
  • Expense approved — the inbox notification links to the transaction in the Activity tab, with the expense sheet pre-opened

Inbox management

  • Mark all read — marks all notifications as read without opening them
  • Clear — archives all notifications so they no longer appear
Both actions are available in the top-right corner of the inbox.
The inbox shows requests where you are a designated approver. Approval policies are configured from the web dashboard — see Approval workflows.
