Improve Order Overview

Brink Commerce is introducing a 4-eye approval process for refund and compensation operations in the Merchant Portal. This change is designed to reduce the risk of errors by requiring two separate users to create and approve these actions before execution.Impact:By enforcing a separation of duties, merchants can ensure more controlled and accountable handling of sensitive financial operations, helping to prevent mistakes and unauthorized actions within Customer Experience teams.Benefits:<ul><li>Reduced Risk: Prevent accidental or unauthorized refunds and compensations.</li><li>Stronger Process Control: Enforces clear handover between initiator and approver.</li><li>Auditability: Improves traceability of who created and who approved each operation.</li></ul>Key Features:<ul><li>Refunds and compensations must first be created as drafts from the order view.</li><li>Drafts are displayed in a dedicated approval view (Operations Dashboard).</li><li>A second user must approve and start the operation; creators cannot self-approve.</li><li>UI clearly separates the create and execute steps to avoid confusion.</li><li>To use this approach most effectively is by dividing users into CX-User and CX-Admin<ul><li>CX-User only have access to create operations</li><li>CX-Admin only have access to start operations</li></ul></li></ul>Scope:<ul><li>Applies to: All Operations</li></ul>

Brink Commerce will expand its Price Service with two key capabilities, available exclusively to merchants with a Campaign Manager license:<ul><li>New campaign price feeds, enabling external systems to consume campaign-specific pricing in a structured and reliable format.</li><li>A new query endpoint that returns all price, product, or campaign changes within a specified timeframe, allowing downstream systems (such as search and indexing clusters) to update dynamically and efficiently.</li></ul>Value / Impact:These enhancements ensure fresher, more accurate pricing across the merchant’s ecosystem. Search, indexing, and personalization services can react to price and campaign updates in near real time, reducing inconsistencies, improving data alignment, and strengthening the overall customer experience.

Brink Commerce utökar sin prisservice med två viktiga funktioner, som endast är tillgängliga för handlare med en Campaign Manager-licens:<ul><li>Nya kampanjprisflöden, som gör det möjligt för externa system att använda kampanjspecifika priser i ett strukturerat och tillförlitligt format.</li><li>En ny sökpunkt som returnerar alla pris-, produkt- eller kampanjändringar inom en angiven tidsram, vilket gör det möjligt för nedströmssystem (såsom sök- och indexeringskluster) att uppdateras dynamiskt och effektivt.</li></ul>Värde/effekt:Dessa förbättringar säkerställer färskare och mer exakta priser i hela handlarens ekosystem. Sök-, indexerings- och personaliseringstjänster kan reagera på pris- och kampanjuppdateringar i nära realtid, vilket minskar inkonsekvenser, förbättrar datajusteringen och stärker den övergripande kundupplevelsen.

Automated Workflow

Brink Commerce is partnering with Cursive, an AI-native personalization engine, to bring real-time, generative product recommendations directly into the cart experience. Through a native integration with Brink's Shopper Service and Shopper Insights, merchants can activate AI-driven cart recommendations and dynamically generated headlines without building or training their own ML models.Every time a shopper updates their cart, the service responds in roughly 40 ms with a fresh, context-aware set of recommendations and a generative headline tuned to that exact basket, market, and channel. Activation is handled in the Brink Merchant Portal, the same configuration flow merchants already use for payment and shipping providers.<h2> Impact</h2>Cart is one of the highest-intent surfaces in the funnel, but historically a hard place for merchants to drive incremental revenue without heavy merchandising effort. With Cursive plugged into Brink, cart becomes a revenue-bearing surface powered by generative AI — with measurable uplift, full attribution, and no replatforming required.<h2> Benefits</h2><ul><li>Incremental revenue uplift on cart. AI-driven recommendations and generative headlines designed to lift average order value and conversion on an underutilized surface.</li><li>No ML investment required. Cursive owns the model, ranking, and generative copy. Merchants get AI-native UX without hiring data science teams or training their own models.</li><li>Real-time relevance (~40 ms). Recommendations are generated on every cart update, based on the actual basket, market, and channel context — not pre-built bundles.</li><li>Generative, not rule-based. No need to hand-curate bundles or write headlines in advance. The model produces both the product selection and the copy on the fly.</li><li>Merchandiser stays in control. Curated picks, pinning, and overrides remain available whenever the team wants to steer the model.</li><li>Built-in measurement. Brink's Shopper Insights tracks what was shown, clicked, and converted — giving full transparency on the value delivered.</li><li>Per-channel, per-market activation. Roll out gradually: start with a single channel on one market and scale from there.</li><li>Fast time-to-live. API ready within roughly a week of data access; model training can complete in as little as 24 hours.</li><li>No replatforming. Activated via a toggle in Merchant Portal plus an initial data push same flow as any other Brink provider.</li></ul><h2>Key Features</h2><ul><li>Generative product recommendations rendered in the cart on every basket update.</li><li>AI-generated headlines tailored to the live cart context, market, and channel.</li><li>Native integration with Brink Shopper Service (cart context) and Shopper Insights (training and measurement).</li><li>Merchant Portal activation — turn Cursive on per channel and per market, the same way you configure payment or shipping.</li><li>Manual overrides and pinning so merchandisers can always steer the model.</li><li>Attribution and performance data built into Shopper Insights, including what was shown, clicked, and converted.</li></ul>Interested in joining the early access program?

AI Cart Recommendations

MCP (Model Control Plane) for Merchant Portal enables merchants to operate Brink entirely through their own Large Language Model (LLM) over HTTP, without relying on a graphical user interface.Through MCP, an LLM becomes a first-class operational client to Brink. It can securely read data, query insights, and execute real operations by interacting with Brink’s Management and OMS APIs using natural language translated into validated API calls.This allows merchants to run their daily commerce operations via conversation, scripts, or AI agents—searching orders, managing deliveries and refunds, configuring markets, inventory, pricing, and campaigns—without clicking through UI workflows.MCP is not a chatbot layer. It is a controlled execution plane that exposes Brink’s domain logic, schemas, and permissions to LLMs in a safe, auditable, and deterministic way, governed by user roles and access.<h3>Core Capabilities</h3><ul><li>Data access via language</li><li>Search and filter orders</li><li>Retrieve customers, products, prices, inventory, campaigns</li><li>Query operational and performance insights</li><li>Operational execution</li><li>Create shipments and deliveries</li><li>Perform refunds and cancellations</li><li>Transition OMS states</li><li>Configure inventory rules and availability</li><li>Set up new markets, currencies, store groups, and channels</li><li>Create or modify campaigns and discounts</li><li>LLM-native API interaction</li><li>Natural language → validated API requests</li><li>Schema-aware payload generation</li><li>Permission-scoped execution</li><li>Full auditability of actions</li><li>HTTP-based integration</li><li>Works with merchant-owned LLMs</li><li>Supports AI agents, scripts, automations, and internal tools</li><li>No dependency on Merchant Portal UI</li></ul><h3>Spotlight: Discount Operations</h3>Discount management is the single highest-friction area in day-to-day Brink operations. The majority of merchant support requests fall into one of four patterns: configuring rules, simulating outcomes, diagnosing unexpected behavior, or reporting on usage. MCP collapses each of those into a single LLM prompt — backed by the same permission model and audit trail as direct API access.Configuration<ul><li>"Create code KLARA10K, capped at 10,000 SEK, calculated on regular price even during active campaigns, valid only on these SKUs."</li><li>"Set up a Gift-with-Purchase rule that adds the size-matched mystery item when cart total exceeds threshold X."</li><li>"Add an OR condition to discount rule Y so it triggers for either VIP or member tier."</li></ul>Simulation<ul><li>"If a customer with the VIP tag adds 4 pairs of socks in size 36–40, which mystery variant is selected and what is the final cart total?"</li><li>"Show how stacked codes A and B combine on a 1,200 SEK cart with express shipping in the SE market."</li><li>"Preview the discount outcome for this exact cart before I commit the rule change."</li></ul>Diagnostics<ul><li>"Why has code X been used more times than its usage limit?"</li><li>"List all reasons code Y was rejected at checkout in the last 24 hours."</li><li>"Why is the express-shipping member discount not applying for this customer on the FI market?"</li><li>"Find all discount rules where the cache status is stale."</li></ul>Reporting<ul><li>"Top 10 discount codes last month by revenue, split by store market."</li><li>"Usage and revenue trend for cart rule X over the last 90 days."</li><li>"Which discount rules are active right now in production, and which ones are scheduled for the next 7 days?"</li></ul>This replaces what is today multi-step CX work — switching between the rule editor, order list, sales dashboard, and ad-hoc API calls — with a single language interface that preserves auditability end-to-end.<h3>Typical Use Cases</h3><ul><li>“Find all failed orders from yesterday and explain why they failed.”</li><li>“Refund this order and notify the customer.”</li><li>“Create a new market for Canada with CAD pricing and default shipping.”</li><li>“List all orders delayed due to inventory constraints.”</li><li>“Adjust safety stock rules for this warehouse.”</li><li>“Generate a campaign payload for 20% off selected SKUs.”</li><li>“Find every order where discount code SUMMER25 was applied with the wrong base price and list the impact in revenue.”</li></ul><h3>Benefits</h3>Operational speed<ul><li>Execute complex workflows in seconds instead of navigating multiple UI views</li><li>Faster issue resolution and daily operations</li></ul>Lower operational friction<ul><li>Work directly in language, scripts, or AI agents</li><li>No UI learning curve for advanced users</li></ul>Automation-ready by design<ul><li>Same interface supports human-driven commands and automated agents</li><li>Natural path from assisted actions to full automation</li></ul>Merchant control &amp; safety<ul><li>Scoped permissions and explicit execution boundaries</li><li>Explainable actions with full traceability</li></ul>Future-proof operations<ul><li>Enables AI-first operating models</li><li>Allows merchants to build their own operational assistants on top of Brink</li></ul><h3>Positioning</h3>MCP for Merchant Portal turns Brink into an LLM-native commerce operations platform—where managing orders, inventory, markets, and insights can happen entirely through language, APIs, and automation, without a traditional UI.

MCP (Model Control Plane) för Merchant Portal gör det möjligt för handlare att hantera Brink helt och hållet via sin egen stora språkmodell (LLM) över HTTP, utan att behöva förlita sig på ett grafiskt användargränssnitt.Genom MCP blir en LLM en förstklassig operativ klient för Brink. Den kan säkert läsa data, söka efter insikter och utföra verkliga operationer genom att interagera med Brinks Management- och OMS-API:er med hjälp av naturligt språk som översätts till validerade API-anrop.Detta gör det möjligt för handlare att sköta sin dagliga handelsverksamhet via konversation, skript eller AI-agenter – söka efter beställningar, hantera leveranser och återbetalningar, konfigurera marknader, lager, prissättning och kampanjer – utan att behöva klicka sig igenom arbetsflöden i användargränssnittet.MCP är inte ett chatbot-lager. Det är en kontrollerad exekveringsplattform som exponerar Brinks domänlogik, scheman och behörigheter för LLM:er på ett säkert, granskningsbart och deterministiskt sätt, styrt av användarroller och åtkomst. <h3> Kärnfunktioner</h3><ul><li>Datatillgång via språk<ul><li>Sök och filtrera beställningar</li><li>Hämta kunder, produkter, priser, lager och kampanjer</li><li>Fråga om operativa och prestationsmässiga insikter</li></ul></li><li>Operativt genomförande<ul><li>Skapa försändelser och leveranser</li><li>Utför återbetalningar och avbokningar</li><li>Ändra OMS-status</li><li>Konfigurera lagerregler och tillgänglighet</li><li>Konfigurera nya marknader, valutor, butiksgrupper och kanaler</li><li>Skapa eller ändra kampanjer och rabatter</li></ul></li><li>LLM-inbyggd API-interaktion<ul><li>Naturligt språk → validerade API-förfrågningar</li><li>Generering av schema-medveten nyttolast</li><li>Utförande inom behörighetsramar</li><li>Fullständig spårbarhet av åtgärder</li></ul></li><li>HTTP-baserad integration<ul><li>Fungerar med handlarägda LLM:er</li><li>Stöder AI-agenter, skript, automatiseringar och interna verktyg</li><li>Inget beroende av Merchant Portal UI</li></ul></li></ul><h3>Typiska användningsfall</h3><ul><li>”Hitta alla misslyckade beställningar från igår och förklara varför de misslyckades.”</li><li>”Återbetala denna beställning och meddela kunden.”</li><li>”Skapa en ny marknad för Kanada med priser i CAD och standardfrakt.”</li><li>”Lista alla beställningar som är försenade på grund av lagerbrist.”</li><li>”Justera reglerna för säkerhetslager för detta lager.”</li><li>”Skapa en kampanj med 20 % rabatt på utvalda SKU:er.”</li></ul><h3>Fördelar</h3>Operativ hastighet<ul><li>Utför komplexa arbetsflöden på några sekunder istället för att navigera mellan flera gränssnittsvyer</li><li>Snabbare problemlösning och daglig drift</li></ul>Mindre friktion i driften<ul><li>Arbeta direkt i språk, skript eller AI-agenter</li><li>Ingen inlärningskurva för avancerade användare</li></ul>Automatiseringsklar från grunden<ul><li>Samma gränssnitt stöder både mänskliga kommandon och automatiserade agenter</li><li>Naturlig övergång från assisterade åtgärder till full automatisering</li></ul>Kontroll och säkerhet för handlare<ul><li>Begränsade behörigheter och tydliga gränser för utförande</li><li>Förklarbara åtgärder med full spårbarhet</li></ul>Framtidssäkra verksamheter<ul><li>Möjliggör AI-prioriterade driftsmodeller</li><li>Gör det möjligt för handlare att bygga sina egna operativa assistenter ovanpå Brink</li></ul><h3>Positionering</h3>MCP för Merchant Portal förvandlar Brink till en LLM-baserad handelsplattformdär hantering av order, lager, marknader och insikter kan ske helt via språk, API:er och automatisering, utan ett traditionellt användargränssnitt.

The enhancements focus on strengthening allocation logic, improving inventory visibility in checkout, and enabling more flexible shipping scenarios.Key improvements include:<ul><li>Enhanced Allocation AlgorithmConfigurable rules for single-inventory fulfillment, ensuring an entire order can be fulfilled from one location when required.Support for fallback inventory logic (e.g., default to a central warehouse) and safety stock thresholds per location to reduce overselling and increase allocation accuracy.</li><li>Enriched Shipping Selector IntegrationsDeeper integrations with providers such as Ingrid, Nshift, Kustom, and Avarda.Checkout now surfaces inventory type visibility (store, warehouse, drop-ship) and updates allocation in real time based on customer selection, improving lead-time accuracy for immediate or deferred pickup.</li><li>Split Shipment SupportMore advanced coordination between allocation logic and shipping selectors, enabling mixed fulfillment scenarios where customers can pick up part of an order in-store while other items are shipped separately.</li></ul>Value / Impact:These enhancements deliver greater operational control for merchants and a more transparent, flexible customer experience. They reduce overselling risk, improve delivery promise accuracy, and streamline BOPIS/BORIS flows.

Brink Commerce utökar sina funktioner för orderhantering och lagerhantering för att erbjuda en mer avancerad och precis omnikanal-upplevelse när det gäller kassa, leveransvägar och leveransalternativ för kunderna. Förbättringarna syftar till att stärka allokeringslogiken, öka insynen i lagerstatusen vid kassan och möjliggöra mer flexibla leveransscenarier.De viktigaste förbättringarna är:<ul><li>Förbättrad allokeringsalgoritmKonfigurerbara regler för hantering av enstaka lager, vilket säkerställer att en hel order kan hanteras från en plats när det behövs.Stöd för reservlagerlogik (t.ex. standardinställning till ett centrallager) och tröskelvärden för säkerhetslager per plats för att minska översäljning och öka allokeringsnoggrannheten.</li><li>Utökade integrationer för fraktväljareDjupare integrationer med leverantörer som Ingrid, Nshift, Kustom och Avarda.Kassan visar nu lagertyp (butik, lager, direktleverans) och uppdaterar allokeringen i realtid baserat på kundens val, vilket förbättrar leveranstidens noggrannhet för omedelbar eller senare upphämtning.</li><li>Stöd för delade leveranserMer avancerad samordning mellan allokeringslogik och leveransväljare, vilket möjliggör blandade leveransscenarier där kunder kan hämta en del av en beställning i butik medan andra artiklar skickas separat.</li></ul>Värde/effekt:Dessa förbättringar ger handlare bättre operativ kontroll och en mer transparent och flexibel kundupplevelse. De minskar risken för översäljning, förbättrar leveranslöftets noggrannhet och effektiviserar BOPIS/BORIS-flöden. Sammantaget stärker de Brinks roll som en verklig omnikanal-handelsplattform med kapacitet för dynamisk leverans från flera platser i stor skala.
