Here are a few common reasons you may be asked to approve a transaction with your Bitkey device, even if the transaction appears to be below your daily spending limit:
You may have already exceeded your daily limit
- Double-check the daily transfer limit you’ve set.
- Review your recent transactions to see if you’ve already spent more than your limit.

⏰ Your daily transfer limit resets at 3 AM local time (or 4 AM if your time zone observes daylight savings). Make sure you're reviewing transactions after that reset time.
You’re changing the transaction (for example, speeding it up)
Speeding up a transaction always requires approval with your Bitkey device, even if the original transaction amount is below your daily limit.
You're consolidating UTXOs
Consolidating UTXOs always requires approval with your Bitkey device, even if the transaction is below your daily limit.
The app is having trouble connecting to Bitkey services
If the Bitkey app can’t connect to Bitkey services, you’ll need to approve the transaction using your Bitkey device, even if the transaction is below your daily limit.
