# Approval

The **Approval** feature on MetaCopier.io adds an extra layer of control to trade copying, allowing users to manually review and approve trades before they are executed on the slave accounts.

When this feature is enabled, any trade opened on the **Master Account** will not be automatically copied to the **Slave Account**. Instead, it will first require manual approval from the user. Once the trade is reviewed and approved, it will then be executed on the **Slave Account** as per the predefined copying settings.

This feature is particularly useful for traders who want to maintain a level of discretion over their copied trades. It provides additional risk management, ensuring that only selected trades are executed on the **Slave Account**, preventing unwanted or high-risk positions from being copied automatically.

## How It Works

* **User Interface:** In the WebApp, approval requests will appear in the **Accounts Page**, allowing users to review and take action directly.

* **Telegram Approval Notification**: If you want to receive Telegram notifications when approval is required, please add the slave account in the [Telegram notification settings](/features/basic-features/telegram.md).
