1.2B people use ChatGPT each week to research products and compare options, OpenAI said. OpenAI now lets dots complete the purchase with ChatGPT Wallet.
Agents never see the card number.
Users add a card once and approve each order with Face ID or a fingerprint scan, OpenAI said. Each approval creates a record of what the agent may buy. The network then issues a payment token with a number, code and expiry. The charge lands on the selected card with rewards and protections intact for eligible disputes.
Sherri Haymond, EVP and global head of digital commercialization at Mastercard, said an agent purchase should strengthen, not bypass, trust in payments: "Our collaboration with OpenAI brings Mastercard's payments and security expertise to ChatGPT Wallet, helping connect user-approved purchases with the systems businesses and banks already use."
Built with American Express, Mastercard and Visa, the token fits existing checkout flows. Still, OpenAI warned some sites may block agent requests and risk systems may decline legitimate agent orders. It published a Commerce Partner Playbook and named fraud partners Forter, Riskified, Sardine and Signifyd and processors Adyen, Checkout.com and Stripe.
Wallet starts today in dots for Pro subscribers aged 18 and older in the US with eligible US-issued cards. Help docs add a limit: it runs only in a dot conversation, not in Chat, Work or standalone Codex threads, and users must set up a dot first. OpenAI said it will learn from this phase and expand availability, including pre-approved buys bounded by spending limits, categories or time periods.
