There is one charter issued by Waiofar preserved in the cartulary of the basilica of Saint-Julien at Brioude. Styling himself and his predecessor, Hunald, "princes" ("principes"), Waiofar granted a "villa" to one Gedeon as a "precarium" for life in exchange for another "villa" and two pounds of silver. The charter was drawn up around 756–57 ("in the month of September in the 12th year of lord Waifarius, prince") in the Limagne (""in pago limanico""). Waiofar may have been copying the policy of his rival Pepin from 743–44, when the latter ordered his followers who had received church lands to return them to the church, make a payment ("cens") and receive them back as "precaria verbo regis" ("by the king's word") from the church. By creating "precaria", Waiofar could raise men and troops to defend Aquitaine from the impending war with Pepin. The continuator of Fredegar records how Waiofar confiscated church lands and distributed them to his followers.
