Visa integrates payment network into ChatGPT for autonomous AI shopping and transactions
By
Associated Press
Summary
Visa has integrated its payment network into ChatGPT, enabling the AI chatbot to independently shop and complete transactions on behalf of users at any merchant that accepts Visa. This expands on previous limited attempts that were confined to single retailers or small merchant groups. The move signals Visa's bet that consumers will become more comfortable with AI agents handling purchases like groceries, plane tickets, and other everyday items autonomously.
