Visa has announced plans to integrate credit card functionality into artificial intelligence (AI) agents, expanding their capabilities beyond traditional chatbots.

The company aims to develop AI assistants that can handle tasks such as purchasing clothing, groceries, or travel tickets, all while adhering to user-defined budgets and preferences.

The AI agents will be able to securely access credit card information and manage transactions on behalf of users, providing a seamless shopping experience.

Visa emphasizes that these agents will operate within financial limits set by users, ensuring control and security over purchases.

Visa’s development of AI agents with purchasing capabilities marks a significant step forward in AI application within commerce.

The company is positioning itself at the forefront of digital payment innovation, aiming to simplify the purchasing process while enhancing consumer convenience. As AI continues to evolve, Visa’s initiative could play a key role in shaping the future of financial transactions.
