Agentic Commerce, but built for merchants. At @Adyen, we are actively working with @Google, @OpenAI, @Visa, @Mastercard, and our global customers, in building infrastructure that actually creates value for merchants and their customers. Here are the principles guiding that work: 1. AI agents may only act on behalf of shoppers after receiving an explicit, verifiable authorization (a mandate) that secures the transaction and proves intent. 2. Merchants must be able to support all payment methods and manage their own tokenization lifecycle, allowing one-click checkout, card-on-file, and subscription models. 3. Merchants must be able to recognize and serve customers securely across agentic channels through a universal payment token. 4. Merchants must own their transaction data and customer relationships, ensuring that post-purchase visibility and service remain in their control. Much more to come!
