Most merchants offer a generous discount to new customers (10%, 15%, sometimes 20% off), but hunting down the code is a chore. With Axiom it happens automatically: when your agent buys from a store you haven't shopped at, Axiom's checkout searches for first-time-buyer promos and coupon codes and applies the best one it finds.
How it works
You ask your agent to buy something. The agent hands the purchase to Axiom, and on supported merchants Axiom's checkout does the rest: it looks for active coupon codes and new-customer offers, tests them at checkout, and applies the one that saves you the most. Where a discount is reserved for first-time buyers, Axiom can check out with a one-time email so the offer applies, and it forwards the order and delivery confirmations to your real inbox. The purchase completes on a single-use card, and the receipt shows exactly what you saved.
There's nothing to script on the agent side. The savings engine runs automatically wherever it's supported.
Set it up
- In Axiom, create a spending rule with a per-transaction cap that matches the kind of purchases you want this recipe to handle (e.g., $60).
- Optionally, add the merchants you want your agent to shop with to an allowlist. This keeps it from wandering off to anywhere unexpected.
- Point your agent at the product URL and ask it to buy.
The agent prompt
Buy {product_url} through Axiom. Report the final price and any savings applied.
Tips & variations
- New stores pay off. First-time-buyer offers are the biggest wins, so this shines for things you buy from a rotating set of merchants (specialty coffee, meal kits, niche DTC brands) where you're never really a "returning" customer anyway.
- Track your savings. The Axiom activity feed logs the pre-promo and post-promo totals, so you can see the running tally of what this recipe has saved you.
