Treasury Managers
Treasury Setup
Set up your shared account
Your Group's treasury is like a shared bank account that requires multiple Approvers for every transaction. This guide covers how to set it up and manage it securely.
Treasury setup
When you create a Group, a shared treasury is created with it. To fully secure it:
- Add additional Approvers (recommended: 3–5 trusted members).
- Set the approval threshold (recommended: 2-of-3 or 3-of-5).
- Fund the treasury (deposit funds).
About Approvers
Approvers are members who sign treasury transactions. To become an Approver, a member needs a wallet linked to their EnDAO account — the wallet is what signs each transaction. They link their own wallet from their account settings.
Once a member has a linked wallet, an admin can promote them to Approver. Changes to the Approver list (adding, removing, replacing) typically need to be approved by the existing Approvers, depending on your Group's setup.
Creating transactions
To send funds from the treasury:
- Open Treasury, then start a new transaction.
- Enter the recipient and amount.
- Add a description explaining what the payment is for.
- Submit for approval.

Approving transactions
As an Approver, you'll see pending transactions that need your sign-off:
- Review the transaction details carefully.
- Verify the recipient.
- Approve or reject.
- Once the approval threshold is reached, the transaction can be executed.
Security best practices
- Multiple Approvers.
Never have just one.
- Verify recipients.
Always double-check before approving.
- Document transactions.
Keep records of why funds were sent.
- Regular audits.
Review transaction history periodically.
