Budget caps
Check per-action, daily, merchant, category and account-level limits before spend.
Autonomous spending controls
AI agents need spending limits that can be proven.
When agents can buy, subscribe, call paid APIs or trigger MCP tools, spending limits cannot live in a slide deck. AffixIO helps products prove limits before each action and record the decision for audit.
Why this search matters
Search demand is moving from pages to agents.
The real fear is not one approved purchase. It is an agent loop, hidden retry or broad permission that turns into uncontrolled spend.

AffixIO answer
Proof before the agent acts.
Retry control
Bind retries to the same intent so the agent cannot create duplicate charges through repeated attempts.
Audit and support
A signed no decision is as valuable as a signed yes when customers ask why something did not happen.
Implementation path
Wire AffixIO at the decision boundary.
Call AffixIO before the paid action. Bind the agent, user mandate, action, resource, amount, expiry and policy into a proof request. Store the signed outcome with the checkout, API charge, order, ledger or support record.

Direct answers
Short answers for search engines, LLMs, buyers and implementation teams.
What spending limits should agents have?
Use amount caps, merchant restrictions, category limits, expiry, retry windows and human approval thresholds.
Can limits work with existing checkout?
Yes. Add AffixIO before payment confirmation and attach proof data to the order or payment metadata.
Does AffixIO store payment data?
AffixIO is designed to verify the decision without becoming a payment data warehouse.
