- Agentic technology scalability requires inclusivity and broad accessibility.
- New open commerce and payments standards have been introduced to support AI shopping.
- The Agent Payments Protocol (AP2) is being donated to the FIDO Alliance to ensure it remains platform-agnostic and community-led.
- AP2 v.0.2 is released on GitHub, featuring 'Human Not Present' payments for autonomous transactions like ticket purchases.
- Verifiable Intent, co-developed with Mastercard, is an AP2-compatible standard for tamper-proof logs of agent actions.
- Industry-wide support for AP2 is fostering an open, collaborative foundation for secure cross-platform agent transactions.
