No new tools to learn. No portals to log into. Just CC us, and ApproveThis takes care of the rest.

With CC Approvals, you can turn any email into a tracked approval request — just by CC’ing approvals@approvethis.com.

  • Everyone on the To line becomes an approver
  • They receive a clean, structured approval request (instead of a messy thread)
  • You get clear responses — approve or reject — without chasing anyone

It works with the email habits you already have. No extra steps, no new software to learn.

Two Ways to Use It

Free & Simple

  • CC approvals@approvethis.com
  • Requests go out instantly
  • Perfect for ad hoc or one-off approvals
  • No account or plan required
  • You're notified when each request is complete.

CC Approvals vs. Mailbox Approvals

Tracked in Your Dashboard

  • CC approvals@yourdomain.approvethis.com
  • Requests are logged in ApproveThis
  • Approvers = whoever’s on the To line
  • Change approvers on the fly by editing the To line

Both are email-powered — but built for different needs:

  • Mailbox Approvals → Fixed workflows. Send to vacation-request@yourdomain.approvethis.com and the request always follows the same approval path. Perfect for structured, repeatable processes.
  • CC Approvals → Flexible workflows. Always CC approvals@approvethis.com (or your custom domain). Approvers are defined by the To line each time. Perfect for dynamic, ad hoc approvals.

? Mailbox Approvals = consistency.
? CC Approvals = flexibility.

Together, they cover every approval workflow your business runs.
