OpenAI 的 dots 智能体接入 ChatGPT Wallet,可代替用户购物付款
Visa、Mastercard 和 Amex 亲自下场和 OpenAI 一起做了这套钱包支付,用令牌替代真实卡号,商户和智能体都拿不到卡信息。之前 Instant Checkout 要商户改造库存接口,这次直接在普通结账页付款,门槛低多了。不过 Amazon、eBay 和美联航都在封机器人,能不能普及还得看商户态度。
OpenAI 的 dots agents 现在可以通过 ChatGPT Wallet 为用户完成购物支付,每次购买需生物识别批准。系统由 American Express、Mastercard 和 Visa 与 OpenAI 共同搭建,用户只需绑定一次借记卡或信用卡,智能体使用替代真实卡号的令牌付款,卡号信息不会暴露给商户和智能体本身,持卡人保留原有奖励和保障。
技术上,这套钱包方案不需要商户像之前的 Instant Checkout 那样提供更新后的库存接口,也不用依赖品牌自建的插件应用——Instant Checkout 已于 3 月被搁置。智能体直接在商户普通结账页面上完成支付,前提是网站允许机器人访问。早期访问范围很窄:仅限年满 18 岁、持美国发行合规卡片的美国 Pro 订阅用户。OpenAI 后续计划让用户设置消费限额和品类,完全委托智能体下单。
推广面临商户阻力:United Airlines 周三开始封锁智能体,Amazon 和 eBay 也早已如此,以保护用户数据和广告收入。OpenAI 还发布了供商户接入智能体支付的指引,钱包的实际覆盖范围取决于商户是否将 OpenAI 智能体加入白名单并调整欺诈检测系统。
OpenAI’s dots agents can now buy things for users through ChatGPT Wallet, with biometric approval per purchase.
- Users save a debit or credit card once, and the agent pays with a token that replaces the real card number. - That keeps card details away from both the merchant and the agent, while cardholders keep their existing rewards and protections. - American Express, Mastercard and Visa built the system with OpenAI, which also released guidance for merchants that want to accept agent payments. - Access starts narrow, limited to US Pro subscribers aged 18 or older with eligible US-issued cards. - OpenAI plans to let users delegate purchases entirely later, setting spending limits and categories instead of approving each one. - Merchants could still stall that shift, since OpenAI warns some websites and fraud systems may block purchases made by agents. - Instant Checkout, OpenAI’s earlier attempt, needed brands to supply updated inventory, and after it was shelved in March, purchases moved into brand-built plug-in apps. - The wallet needs neither, since the agent pays on a store’s ordinary checkout page, provided the site lets bots in. Many sites don’t: United Airlines started blocking agents on Wednesday, joining Amazon and eBay in guarding customer data and ad revenue.
So the wallet’s reach will depend on merchants agreeing to allowlist OpenAI’s agents and teach fraud systems to accept legitimate bot purchases. https://t.co/DEtjJXt7s1
