Agentis Solution

Stop Coupon Aggregators From Turning Your Welcome Code Into a Loss

When a single-use code gets scraped by a coupon-aggregator extension and shared publicly, Agentis still enforces your profit floor on every order it produces.

The Problem

Coupon aggregator browser extensions surface active discount codes at checkout automatically, and once a code becomes visible to one of these tools it effectively becomes public. A welcome code meant for one first-time customer can end up applied on thousands of orders it was never priced for. Standard Shopify discount rules have no way to tell a legitimate single use from an aggregator-driven one: the code is valid, so it applies.

How Agentis Solves It

Agentis does not detect or block browser extensions directly, that is a different problem than the one it solves. What it does is evaluate the actual order that results once a code is applied: current COGS, freight to that zone, FX rate, and the discount itself, all together, in under 10ms. If the resulting order falls below your configured profit floor, Agentis blocks or modifies it, regardless of which channel the code arrived through. The leaked code still gets used; the below-floor order does not still ship.

Key Benefits

  • Blocks or modifies below-floor orders no matter how a discount code was discovered
  • No dependency on identifying or blacklisting specific extensions or domains
  • Works on the resulting order economics, so new aggregator tools don't require new rules
  • Deploys without changing your existing discount code setup

Platform Features

  • —Real-time profit-floor evaluation at checkout, independent of discount source
  • —Live COGS, freight zone, and FX data factored into every order decision
  • —Configurable floor per SKU category or promo type
  • —No storefront code changes required

Built for

Shopify Plus merchants running single-use or welcome discount codes at meaningful volume

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Agentis block the Honey extension or similar coupon aggregators?

No. Agentis does not detect or block browser extensions; that would require client-side detection outside its scope. Instead, it evaluates the order that results after any code is applied, from any source, and blocks or modifies it if the real margin falls below your floor. The leaked code stops mattering because the unprofitable order never ships.

Will this stop my welcome code from leaking to a coupon site in the first place?

No tool can fully prevent a code from being shared once a customer has it. Agentis addresses the financial consequence instead: whatever volume a leaked code drives, none of it ships below your configured profit floor.

Does this require me to change how I create discount codes?

No. Agentis evaluates orders after Shopify applies your existing discount logic, so no change to your current code setup is required.

Key Concepts

Margin Analysis

Coupon Stacking

The practice, by customers or unintentionally permitted by checkout configuration, of applying multiple discount codes to a single order, typically dropping margin below intended thresholds.

Profit Governance

Promo Abuse

When customers exploit coupon codes, referral programs, or promotional mechanics beyond their intended use, generating orders that erode margin through illegitimate discounting.

Margin Analysis

Discount Stacking

When multiple discounts, such as a site-wide sale, a coupon code, and a loyalty reward, combine on a single order, compounding margin loss beyond what any individual promotion intended.
