Agentic Commerce Is Far More Than Payments
The entire e-commerce journey is being rebuilt for autonomous agents.
Traditional stages — discovery, referral, cart, authorization, and fulfillment — are now joined by two new critical steps: Intent and Delegation. Protocols such as UCP, AP2, and TAP are making commerce fully machine-readable, enabling agents to compare SKUs, carry signed intent, negotiate policies, and handle post-purchase flows without constant human intervention.
