Treasury wallet

A treasury wallet is an external wallet your workspace links for USDC payout packets. It is often a multisig Safe or another treasury address your finance team controls. Filosign does not hold payout funds. The linked wallet must approve payment when a payout runs.

  • Payouts should come from team funds, not an individual sender wallet
  • Finance requires a multisig to approve outgoing USDC
  • You want the org wallet to appear in payout compose options
  1. Connect and link a treasury wallet from Workspace settingsWorkspace treasury.
  2. The linked address appears in payout compose options as the organization payout wallet.
  3. When you attach a payout leg to the org wallet, the treasury wallet must approve USDC spending for Filosign to execute the transfer.
  4. Recipients must still be on the envelope (or the linked org wallet) per payout policy.

Treasury payouts are separate from payout attachment access, the safety review Filosign may require before your workspace can attach payouts at all.

Individual senders can still attach payouts from their own wallet without linking a treasury.

A DAO links its Safe as the workspace treasury wallet. When sending contributor agreements, finance selects the org wallet as payer and approves USDC spending. Payout packets send from the Safe when signing conditions are met.

  • Workspace owners and admins can void envelopes and amend signers, but treasury payouts still require the treasury wallet itself to sign as payer when funds move.
  • Treasury linking does not replace payout access approval.
  • You need enough USDC on Base and valid approval at payout time.
  1. Open Workspace settingsWorkspace treasury.
  2. Connect the wallet you want to link (must be able to sign). This wallet connection is separate from your Filosign sign-in wallet.
  3. For a multisig Safe, Filosign proposes the link message to your Safe and waits while co-owners sign in the Safe app. Use the Open Safe queue link if you need to finish signatures.
  4. Confirm the link in the app.
  5. When composing payouts, pick the organization payout wallet as payer when appropriate.

When you send an envelope with the workspace treasury selected as payout payer:

  • Your personal Filosign wallet still registers the envelope on-chain.
  • Filosign opens your treasury wallet to approve USDC and register payout rules.
  • For a Safe treasury, you may need to collect multisig signatures before the batch executes. The send progress UI shows when Filosign is waiting on Safe.
  • Resolve any pending Safe transactions for the treasury before sending, or new payout registration may be blocked.
