🚨 𝗝𝗨𝗦𝗧 𝗜𝗡: @Mastercard has signed a broad strategic partnership with @OpenAI. Agentic commerce just got another major infrastructure push. The partnership includes Mastercard’s Agent Pay, but CEO @MiebachMichael says it goes much further, covering payments, services growth, and AI transformation. Mastercard is building around four requirements for agentic commerce: → Trust in the payment → Trust in the AI agent → Trust in the ecosystem → Merchant reach And it now has products targeting each layer: 👉 Agent Pay — tokenized payments for AI agents 👉 Verifiable Intent — captures what the buyer actually authorized 👉 Agentic Trust Intelligence — helps banks and merchants assess AI-initiated transactions 👉 Agent Connect — helps merchants become discoverable to AI agents Shopify is already among the first major deployments, with Shop Pay using Agent Pay and network tokens. And Mastercard is making one important bet: 𝗧𝗼𝗸𝗲𝗻𝘀, 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗼𝗻𝗲-𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝘃𝗶𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗻𝘂𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿𝘀. Miebach says agentic commerce is still in its “early days,” but added that agentic transactions are already “ramping up at impressive weekly growth rates.” Holiday shopping could be the first big test. The battle to become the payment infrastructure for AI agents is getting VERY real. Visa, Mastercard, Stripe, PayPal and others are all moving fast. Who do you think is best positioned to win the agentic payments race?
