# Authorization

The Authorization page of the Inqud Crypto Recurring allows you to view user-approved spending agreements for your plans. An authorization represents the user's agreement to be charged based on the plan's conditions and involves an actual ERC-20 approval transaction made by the user using their Web3 wallet.

### **What is an Authorization?**

An authorization is a user-approved spending agreement for a specific plan. It signifies the user's consent to be charged according to the plan's conditions. This process includes an ERC-20 token approval transaction performed by the user via their Web3 wallet, ensuring secure and verifiable permissions for recurring payments.
