The companies said transactions will use tokenized Visa credentials instead of exposing card details directly.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Part of Visa\u2019s broader AI strategy: The move builds on Visa\u2019s broader push into AI-powered payments. In 2025, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.medianama.com\/2025\/05\/223-ai-payments-india-visa-mastercard-legal-gaps\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">company launched<\/a> Visa Intelligent Commerce, a platform that enables AI agents to search, select and buy products using tokenized payment credentials. Earlier this year, Visa also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.medianama.com\/2026\/04\/223-visa-credit-card-dispute-ai-tools-banks-merchants\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">introduced <\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medianama.com\/2026\/04\/223-visa-credit-card-dispute-ai-tools-banks-merchants\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">AI tools<\/a> to handle credit card disputes, saying it processed more than 106 million disputes globally in 2025. The OpenAI partnership extends those efforts into one of the world\u2019s largest AI platforms.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beyond consumer payments: Beyond consumer purchases, the companies said they will explore additional uses for payments within OpenAI\u2019s ecosystem, including developer-focused applications linked to Codex, OpenAI\u2019s coding agent, and automated business workflows involving procurement, invoicing, reconciliation, and payment execution.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Questions around AI-led transactions: As developers increasingly design AI systems to perform actions rather than simply provide information, this shift raises questions around transaction authorization, user control, agent identity, and fraud prevention.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAI will transform commerce more profoundly than the internet or mobile technology ever did,\u201d said Jack Forestell, Chief Product and Strategy Officer, Visa.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cBy integrating with Visa Intelligent Commerce, we\u2019re building the infrastructure for secure, transparent, and user-controlled agentic transactions, helping people do more with AI agents while maintaining confidence that payments are being handled safely and securely,\u201d said Marco Mahrus, Head of Partnerships, Commerce at OpenAI.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The companies did not announce a launch timeline or specify when payment-enabled AI agents will become broadly available to consumers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Read more:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"You can access the original blog from here.
