The Brief · written from 8 sources
- OpenAI began rolling out ChatGPT Wallet, letting ChatGPT agents make purchases on users' behalf using a stand-in card number so card details are not shared with the agent or merchant.
- Wallet was built with American Express, Mastercard, and Visa and runs inside dots, OpenAI's agents platform.
- Initial access is limited to ChatGPT Pro subscribers in the US aged 18 and older with a US billing address and eligible US-issued American Express cards.
- Users register a card once and confirm each purchase through Face ID or fingerprint, according to The Decoder.
Why it matters
Developers building or relying on agentic checkout now have a card-network-backed payment model where agents do not see raw card numbers, which is a relevant reference design for payment-enabled agents.
Who’s affected
- ChatGPT Pro subscribers in the US
- Developers building agentic commerce or payment-enabled agents
The new Wallet feature will allow its AI agents to make purchases on your behalf.
