OpenAI announced on Friday that it has launched ChatGPT Wallet, which allows artificial intelligence agents to pay for purchases without accessing users' card information. Users will need to provide security verification for each transaction.

According to OpenAI's statement, ChatGPT Wallet was developed in collaboration with American Express, Mastercard and Visa. The service will initially be available in the United States to ChatGPT Pro subscribers aged 18 and over who have eligible cards issued in the country. Users will be able to access the wallet through the company's constantly running artificial intelligence agents "dots".

Users will be able to review the products, total amount and selected card before each purchase. It will then confirm the transaction with a security verification such as Face ID or fingerprint scan.

OpenAI stated that the payment network will provide a payment token instead of actual card information. Thus, the business and the artificial intelligence agent will not be able to see the user's card information.

OpenAI expects users, over time, to delegate their purchases to artificial intelligence agents within predetermined spending limits, product categories or time periods.
