Want a heads up when a Pod gets too low or too high?

You sure can.

Sequence lets you set up Balance Alerts for any Pod.

You’ll get notified when a balance crosses a threshold you define.


How to set up a Balance Alert

  1. Click into the Pod you want to track

  2. Hit the three dots in the upper-right corner

  3. Go to Settings

  4. Toggle on Balance Alert

  5. Choose your alert conditions:

    • Alert if balance goes below $X

    • Alert if balance goes above $Y

Want to receive alerts by email, SMS, or both?

Head to:

Settings → Notifications → Balance Alerts

There, you can toggle on your preferred delivery method.


Why it’s useful

Balance Alerts help you:

  • Catch low balances before payments fail

  • Track high-usage Pods without logging in

  • Keep financial hygiene high, without adding more manual work

Alerts are great — but what if Sequence could take action when a balance changes?

That’s exactly what Rules are for.

Now let’s look at a few real-world use cases that show how Pods and Rules work together to automate your money.
