# Disable Automatic Approval of Affiliates

**GoAffPro** provides you with the option to disable the automatic approval of affiliate accounts.

{% hint style="info" %}
By disabling the automatic approval of affiliates, you can manually approve or reject them from the Affiliates > Pending Approval section, based on your requirements.
{% endhint %}

To disable the automatic approval of affiliate accounts, go to the **General** section in the **Settings** tab of the GoAffPro admin panel.
