ChatGPT Wallet lets agents pay without seeing your card number

The Brief · written from 4 sources

OpenAI announced ChatGPT Wallet, letting ChatGPT agents make purchases on users' behalf.
Agents pay with a stand-in card number, so the user's real card details are not shared with the agent or merchant.
OpenAI built the feature with American Express, Mastercard, and Visa; it runs inside dots.
Initial rollout is limited to ChatGPT Pro subscribers in the US who are over 18.

Why it matters

It shows how payment credentials can be kept away from AI agents and merchants, a pattern developers building agentic checkout will need to handle. Purchases still require user approval and existing card protections apply.
