Plain meaning
A person or organisation delegates buying authority to software under specific conditions.
Glossary
Delegated checkout
Delegated checkout happens when software, an AI agent or another authorised workflow attempts to complete a purchase or paid action for a user or business.
Main risk
The checkout may be valid only if the action fits the delegated permission.
Where AffixIO fits
AffixIO sits before the action. It helps your application ask whether the user, agent or delegated workflow is allowed to continue, then returns a decision your product can enforce.
AffixIO role
AffixIO helps check whether the checkout request is within scope before the merchant accepts it.
Common checks
Amount, merchant, category, item type, region, time and user mandate are common policy inputs.
Agentic commerce
Delegated checkout becomes more important as shopping agents and browser agents move from browsing to buying.
Support value
A proof-backed record helps explain why a delegated checkout was allowed or blocked.
Privacy value
The merchant can receive an outcome without retaining every underlying record.
Commercial fit
This targets searches around delegated checkout, AI shopping agent checkout and agentic payments.
Designed for buyers who need trust without data sprawl
Use AffixIO when a checkout, platform, marketplace, API, internal tool or AI agent needs a clear permission result, signed evidence and a cleaner privacy posture. The value is not another dashboard full of personal records. The value is a decision with proof behind it.
