Readiness starts at policy
Define which agents may act, what they may buy and when human approval is needed.
Merchant readiness
Merchant agent readiness checklist
AI shopping agents are moving from browsing to action. Merchants need a clear readiness model for permission, payment risk, support, refunds and audit.
Checkout boundary
Place verification before order creation, payment capture, subscription change or paid API execution.
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.
Support model
Prepare for questions like who approved this, what mandate existed and why was the agent blocked.
Refund flow
Keep proof records that help distinguish buyer regret from an agent acting outside scope.
Data minimisation
Do not solve agent readiness by collecting every possible identity document.
Integration path
Use SDK helpers, API verification and webhooks to connect AffixIO to checkout operations.
Executive view
Agent readiness is both a revenue opportunity and a control problem.

What is merchant agent readiness?
It is the ability to accept, verify, support and audit AI agent-driven actions without breaking checkout or over-collecting data.
What should merchants verify first?
Permission to act, spending scope, product category, account state and whether the requested action needs human approval.
How does AffixIO help?
It gives the merchant a proof-backed decision before the controlled action proceeds.
Put a proof step before the risky action.
Start with the SDK, map the decision you need and connect the result to the place your product already enforces access, checkout or policy.
