Add your Safe

Orla proposes, your Safe's owners sign

Orla reads the Safe from the chain: owners, threshold, balance and history. An approved payment becomes a Safe proposal and leaves only when the owners sign.

Orla never signs or executes. Reading is on every plan, proposing on Scale and Enterprise.

What lands in the book

A Safe is recognised by its address alone

On Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum and Polygon.

  • An address that turns out to be a Safe gets a Safe 2 of 3 badge and a card listing the owners and how many of them must sign, read from the chain when the account syncs. That part is on every plan.
  • Waiting in Safe lists the proposals not yet signed to the threshold, with each signer named when their wallet is linked to a member. It is read only: signing happens in Safe{Wallet}.
  • A payment is booked with its real transaction hash once it executed; Orla checks the Safe once an hour.
  • A proposal that reverted, or was replaced by another one with the same nonce, goes back to approved with a note and a notification to whoever sent it.
  • A transfer the owners sign straight in Safe{Wallet}, with no approved payment behind it, still lands in the book, is marked paid outside the space's rules in the audit trail, and the owners get one notification. Nothing is reversed: the chain obeys the owners, not Orla.

What Orla is in your Safe

A delegate: it can propose, and nothing else

There is no key to paste here. An owner signs Orla in, and an owner signs it out.

Registering Orla
On the Safe's account page an owner pairs one of the owner wallets over WalletConnect, presses Register Orla and signs a short message in that wallet, valid for an hour.
What a delegate can do
Propose a transaction. It cannot sign as an owner and it cannot execute, so a proposal moves nothing by itself.
From then on
An approved payment from that account is proposed to the Safe within the hour, with no sending step, and a payout run of several payments becomes one proposal the owners sign once.
Without a delegate
Send the approved payment from the run page, paired with Safe{Wallet}: the send becomes a proposal, and the row says in Safe, awaiting signatures.
Who presses last
The owners: signatures up to the threshold, then execute, in Safe{Wallet}.
Taking it back
Revoke takes Orla off the delegates, again with an owner's signature.

Orla inside Safe{Wallet}

Open Orla as an app inside Safe{Wallet}, by its address

In Safe{Wallet} go to Apps, add a custom app with the address https://app.orla.finance/safe-app, and open it. Orla sees the connected Safe.

Getting in
Pair the wallet you own the Safe with and sign a short message. Only an owner of that Safe gets in, and the session lives in that window until you sign out.
What the page shows
The owners and the threshold, the proposals waiting in the Safe, and the payments your team already approved in Orla from that account.
Propose in Safe
Tick the approved payments and press once: they go into the Safe's queue as one transaction, for the owners to sign right there.
After the owners execute
Opening Orla in Safe{Wallet} again books the payment with the real transaction.
A Safe not in your books yet
Can be added from the page as a watched account.
What it needs
Proposing needs the Scale or Enterprise plan and the right to execute payments, and it is switched on space by space.

Questions

The questions the owners of a Safe ask first

Can Orla sign or execute a transaction in our Safe?

No. Orla reads the Safe from the chain and, once an owner registers it as a delegate, proposes transactions. A delegate can only propose: it never signs as an owner and never executes. The owners sign to the threshold and execute in Safe{Wallet}, and Revoke takes Orla off the delegates with an owner's signature.

How do we open Orla inside Safe{Wallet}?

In Safe{Wallet} go to Apps and add a custom app with the address https://app.orla.finance/safe-app. Sign in by pairing the wallet you own the Safe with and signing a short message; only an owner of that Safe gets in. Tick the payments your team approved and press Propose in Safe.

Which plan does paying from a Safe need?

Recognising a Safe, with its badge, owners and threshold, is on every plan. The Waiting in Safe queue, registering Orla as a delegate and proposing from inside Safe{Wallet} are on Scale and Enterprise, and proposing also needs the right to execute payments. These are switched on space by space.

Pay from another bank

Add your Safe, and leave the signatures where they are

Your own Safe: Orla proposes and never signs. The queue and proposing are on Scale and Enterprise, switched on space by space.

Mercury
Orla requests a payment with a token that has no Send Money permission; an admin approves it in Mercury.
Airwallex
Each currency as its own account, and a draft batch that a person submits and approves inside Airwallex.
Slash
No drafts there, so a transfer is created only when your colleague presses Send via Slash after the approvals.
