Mastercard CEO Michael Miebach stated that the company is actively preparing for a world where AI agents shop. To this end, Mastercard launched its "Agent Pay" payment framework last April, designed to identify and verify AI agents as additional participants in the payment ecosystem, ensuring the security of their online shopping transactions. All transactions will be tokenized to provide additional protection. Miebach emphasized that regardless of what digital assets or stablecoins emerge in the future, Mastercard is committed to ensuring secure and intelligent payments, with trust being a core promise of its brand.
