From &#8220;find it for me&#8221; to &#8220;buy it for me&#8221; in end-to-end task<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From search, comparison, and decision-making to payment, users no longer need to switch repeatedly between AI, wallets, and merchant apps.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A traveler shares necessary information with an AI assistant for a hotel booking \u2014 specifying the destination, dates, budget, and preferences. Then the agent automatically searches for hotels, compares options, makes recommendations, and, once authorized by the user, completes payment through the user&#8217;s existing wallet.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AMP enables AI to move from finding the right product to closing the purchase in an end-to-end closed cycle. Users continue with their familiar digital wallets and payment accounts, without having to create new accounts, re-link bank cards, or learning new payment methods. AMP reduces the steps needed for agent-wallet linkage by up to 50%, reducing the back-and-forth switching between AI and payment interfaces. Once authorized, the AI agent directly invokes existing payment capabilities to complete the transaction.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><i>What is the agent permitted to do? Users authorize a task, Not hand over the account<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Traditional payment set-up focuses on &#8220;can this payment go through?&#8221;\u00a0 With agentic payment, what exactly the agent is permitted to do becomes critical.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The choice is not between &#8220;doing everything themselves&#8221; and &#8220;handing their account entirely to the AI.&#8221;\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Under AMP, users retain ultimate control with agent delegation. The simple payment authorization is extended to full task authorization. Users set clear boundaries for a task, they specify what the agent is to accomplish, what the budget is, and which conditions must be met \u2014 with the ability to review, modify, or revoke the task at any time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, a hotel booking budgeted for US$300 or less, specific dates only, a rating of 4.5 or above, only a designated wallet, with re-confirmation if the final price goes over. These conditions follow the task into the execution and payment process, ensuring the agent&#8217;s behavior consistently aligns with the user&#8217;s original intent.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><i>Who Is paying on my behalf?: KYA and interoperable trust frameworks<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As more AI agents can act on behalf of users, confirming account identity alone is no longer enough. Users also need to know: who is the agent executing this payment on my behalf? Who authorized it? Does it have the appropriate identity and capabilities to complete this task? AMP uses the Know-Your-Agent (KYA) framework to provide agents with verifiable identity and related capability information.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For users, the value of KYA is not adding a new identity verification step. Rather, it enables different AI services and payment systems to consistently answer several key questions: Who is this agent? Who authorized it? What is it permitted to do on behalf of the user? This is also a critical foundation for agent payments to earn user trust and achieve scaled adoption.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><i>AgentSafePay with money-back guarantee against agent-specific risks<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even when an agent has verified identity and user authorization, agent payments can still introduce new risks unfamiliar to traditional payment. LLMs may experience hallucinations or misinterpret user requirements. Intent deviation might disrupt multi-step task execution, when the agent&#8217;s final transaction diverges from what the user originally authorized.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To address new risks arising from autonomous agent execution, Ant International provides AgentSafePay protection for all AMP-based transactions with money-back guarantee. With integrated identity verification, task authorization, and transaction protection, users may enjoy the convenience of automated AI task completion without additional transaction risks.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><i>Settlement mechanism designed for high-frequency, nano-scale A2A transactions<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The AMP\u2019s high-frequency agent-to-agent (A2A) settlement mechanism is capable of handling nano-transactions as small as $0.000001 between agents with real-time accounting and clearing. A2A settlement is crucial to agentic economy, which requires the capacity to process high-frequency, sub-cent agent transactions that traditional payment rails cannot support.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><i>An Open Protocol \u2014 Expanding Collaboration on Agent Trust Ecosystem<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AMP was designed from the start as an open protocol.<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">is now open-sourced on <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/ant-intl\/AMP\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">GitHub<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, with source code, developer SDKs, and related technical documentation available to global developers, AI platforms, wallets, acquirers, and financial institutions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ant International welcomes global developers and industry partners to work together on the AMP and contribute technology, use cases, and standards practices \u2014 advancing agent payments from a single-platform capability toward a cross-ecosystem, interoperable industry infrastructure.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\"><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With payment leaders accelerating adoption, the Alipay+ ecosystem \u2014 with 50+ mobile payment partners, over 10 national QR schemes and serving over 2 billion consumer accounts \u2014 is evolving into the world&#8217;s largest agentic payment network for mobile commerce.
