Visa is a global payments technology company that connects consumers, businesses, financial institutions, and governments to fast, secure and reliable electronic payments.
When your agent needs to actually buy things in the real world, not just call APIs, it needs a rail that merchants already accept everywhere. That's what made Visa the right fit for us: it lets our agent check out at virtually any online merchant, not just the handful that expose a payments API. Reach and acceptance were the whole point, so the agent can operate with a real card like a real founder would, instead of being boxed into a closed ecosystem.
Visa has built Visa Intelligent Commerce- which recognizes AI Agents as an actor making payments on behalf of a user, with a tokenised card. It has controls and limits built into it, which allows Prava to make payments for AI Agents even more secure.
