Policy templates

Out-of-the-box governance for every Tier 1 outflow, and for agentic stablecoin payouts

Opinionated presets covering refunds (enforced pre-execution), plus disputes, payouts, transfers, goodwill credits, and application-fee refunds on the webhook governance path, and three Stripe DAA presets that run in shadow today. Pick the one that matches your risk profile, install with one click, audit decisions in simulate before you enforce.

What a template gives you on day one

Every template materializes into a single active policy with per-category thresholds, blocked-reason lists, dispute deadline routing, and a default mode that says either 'compute decisions, don't enforce yet' (simulate) or 'enforce on the provider call' (enforce). Enforce mode gates the provider call on surfaces with a governed executor (refunds today); on webhook surfaces it flags and routes instead of blocking.

Decisions before money moves on the rails with live enforcement, and a sealed record on every rail you connect.
