How do AI agents get verified before making payments?
The host checks agent_ref, subject_ref, consent_ref, transaction intent, nonce, timestamp and policy version. AffixIO verifies the proof path and returns a signed allow or deny outcome.
Agentic payment verification
Verify AI agent payments before checkout.
AffixIO helps merchants, wallets, issuers and orchestration layers check whether an AI agent is recognised, acting inside user consent, and allowed to complete a transaction.
BoundProof Agent
Give every AI agent its own proof area before it acts.
Provision a persistent BoundProof Agent, check its proof allowance and give a reviewer a scoped AffixIO Hub code. Trial and paid access follow the current billing status of that agent area.
- bpa_ agent key first. SDK key access depends on an active trial or subscription licence.
- Authorised payment. An authorised agent can use the documented API payment flow. Human payers use hosted Stripe Checkout. Payment-provider authentication may still be required.
- Scoped Hub view. The BP code opens only that agent's own area, usage and proof status.

Provision the agent, check its licence and allowance, then request an SDK key through the documented flow.
What this page answers
Agentic payment verification is the pre-authorisation check that connects an AI agent, a user approved intent, a payment or checkout context, and a policy decision. AffixIO returns a signed allow or deny result without becoming a PII warehouse.
AffixIO is designed for privacy-preserving verification. The customer keeps source records, account context, consent evidence and policy data. AffixIO verifies the proof path and returns signed evidence that another system can use without receiving a full identity dossier.
