# Protect your withdrawals with additional signatures

To add an extra layer of security to your financial operations, you may want to use the system of multiple signatures for the payouts.\
In short - it will require more than one user to successfully create a payout.

There are two available roles for this action - payout user and payout manager. The first one can only create a payout, and will need a signature from a user with payout manager role to proceed with the transaction. At the same time payout manager can create a payout himself, but will need another payout manager to sign it. Therefore there will always be needed at least 2 people to make a payout - but maybe more, the system is flexible and can be adjusted to your needs.

This functionality applies both to single and mass payouts.\
At the moment it only applies to payouts created from UI and is not used in API.

**To set the number of needed confirmations for your account and get more details - please contact our support.**
