Spending controls for OpenClaw agents

Your OpenClaw agent can make payments. Conto intercepts every one and evaluates it against per-transaction limits, daily budgets, category restrictions, approval workflows, and 40+ other policy rules. All before money leaves the wallet.

What happens when your OpenClaw agent pays

The Conto skill intercepts outgoing payments before execution and evaluates them against your active policies.

Step 1

Agent triggers payment

Your OpenClaw agent calls a payment tool. The Conto skill intercepts the request before any funds move onchain.

Works with x402 micropayments, direct transfers, and virtual card charges.

Step 2

Policies evaluate

All active rules are checked in one call: spend limits, categories, counterparty trust scores, time windows, velocity controls.

40+ rule types. Sub-second evaluation.

Step 3

Outcome: approve, deny, or escalate

Approved payments execute onchain. Denied payments return the specific violation. High-value requests route to the dashboard for sign-off.

Full audit trail for every decision.

Controls your wallet can't enforce

Fine-grained rules that go beyond basic balance checks.

Spend limits

Per-transaction, daily, weekly, and monthly caps. Scoped by agent or project.

Category restrictions

Allowlist approved categories like API providers. Block everything else.

Counterparty rules

Block suspicious addresses, allowlist vendors, set minimum trust scores.

Time windows

Restrict payments to business hours, weekdays, or custom schedules.

x402/MPP controls

Cap per-request cost. Limit daily spend per service. Allowlist endpoints.

Approval workflows

Human sign-off above configurable thresholds. Dashboard alerts on denial.

Create policies in plain English

With an admin SDK key, your agent manages policies via natural language.
