Visa is partnering with major AI developers like OpenAI, Microsoft, and Anthropic to enable AI agents to make purchases on behalf of users by connecting them to its payment network.
These AI agents could eventually handle tasks like buying groceries or booking flights, with users setting budgets and preferences.
Though still early in development, this initiative could transform everyday shopping, allowing AI to not just recommend items but actually complete transactions.
Visa believes this will give consumers more convenience and control, while helping emerging AI platforms compete with giants like Amazon and Google.
