Profit Floor

A profit floor is the minimum acceptable gross margin threshold configured for checkout enforcement. Unlike traditional margin targets that are monitored retroactively, a profit floor is enforced in real-time at the point of transaction. Agentis evaluates each checkout against the configured profit floor — factoring in applied discounts, current COGS from NetSuite, freight zone costs, and FX rates — and blocks or redirects any order that falls below it. Profit floors can be configured per SKU category, freight zone, promo type, or any combination, giving merchants granular control over their minimum acceptable profitability per transaction. It is worth distinguishing a pricing floor from a margin floor, because the two are often conflated. A pricing floor (or list-price floor) governs what you ADVERTISE — the lowest price a SKU may be shown or sold at, the mechanism behind MAP enforcement and the output of repricing tools that set automated pricing floors against competitor data. A margin floor governs what you NET per order after discounts, COGS, freight, and FX are subtracted — it is indifferent to list price and cares only about the dollar or percentage profit that survives to the bottom line. A profit floor is a margin floor: Agentis is not a repricer and does not set advertised prices. It enforces the margin floor at checkout, blocking the specific orders where the realized combination of price and cost would breach it, even when every individual list price remains perfectly compliant.
