Will you be using your AI agent for payment? Google thinks yes.
Google is rolling out AP2 - an open, shared protocol that provides a common language for secure, compliant transactions between agents and merchants. It supports different payment types–from credit and debit cards to stablecoins and real-time bank transfers. It supports 2 shopping modes: "Real-time purchases" (human present), and "Delegated tasks" (human not present).
AP2 uses "Mandates"—tamper-proof, cryptographically-signed digital contracts that serve as verifiable proof of a user's instructions to establish trust. https://cloud.google.com/blog/products/ai-machine-learning/announcing-agents-to-payments-ap2-protocol #AI #Google #AP2 #Payments #AIPayments #Shopping #PaymentSystems #CreditCard #StableCoins #Crypto #BankTransfers #Cryptography
