Agentic payments is a team that’s building new APIs and integration experiences for agentic commerce online. We think that the proliferation of consumer-facing AI experiences will unlock new ways that consumers buy things online, and our existing payments experiences need to evolve to new commercial models that cutting-edge builders are starting. Our first launch, Instant Checkout in collaboration with OpenAI, took the industry by storm and we’re bringing experiences like that to the entire universe of AI agents and sellers.
