Conversion statuses are a part of the Conversion report. They tell you the status that specific conversion has at the moment and also give you the option to transition between them either manually or via API.
Conversion status types
Approved
Only conversions in this status are included in the billing to your affiliates. By default conversions will fall in this status. If you want to override this, you can add a conversion status parameter to your tracking script, API or Zapier integration.
Pending
This status designates conversion usually imported from integrations that are processing the conversion.
On-hold
This status allows you to keep conversions on-hold for a specific amount of time, before transitioning to a different state.
How to set up on-hold period for conversions? Navigate to Offer detail -> Revenue and payout. Click the Edit this section button and then click on the Edit prompt in the top section:

This feature is available for Starter plan and higher.
