# 📬  Notifications

After adding alerts you will be able to receive notifications. Let's see how they behave here.

There are two types of notifications: with a trade option and without.

**Without Trade Option:**

If you only use v1 and v2 alerts or custom alerts, and do not create a wallet, you will receive simple notifications without a menu and without additional options.

**With Trade Option:**

If you have an active wallet set up through `/trade`, you will receive notifications with menus, giving you the advantage of quick access to information and the ability to execute trades directly.

Notifications are only sent if you [add the alert](/overview/getting-started/alerts.md) to the user/club.

When using notifications with trading, you will always trade the key that is currently being traded!
