CoW Swap launches partial approvals for market orders

Users can now approve only the exact amount needed for swaps and permits, eliminating the need for maximum approvals unless preferred.​

  • Enhanced control: Approve specific amounts rather than unlimited access
  • Same user experience: Maintains smooth trading interface
  • User-requested feature: Built based on community feedback

The update provides traders with more granular control over token approvals while preserving CoW Swap's streamlined interface.​
