A2P (Agent Payments Protocol (AP2) support

[Nick-CHI]

It would be great if you guys can add A2P on the roadmap. We work a lot with AI agents and this will be the future / a game changer for online payments.

Thank you, Nick.

We will evaluate this in our upcoming roadmap discussion and share an update here. In the meantime, if you have any questions, feel free to drop them in our Slack Community.

Thank you.

Also check https://www.x402.org/. Fully compatible with AP2. This uses stables. Now regulated in the US and I think the rest of the world will follow soon. They eliminate all fees. So eventually there is big probability they kill Mastercard/Visa.

We in CHI use AI agents and have a separate project where we developed a multi agent platform. For CHI, I see use cases like:

• Agent that orders NFC wristbands on behalf of the organizer
• Agent that orders drinks when the stock is empty and find the cheapest suppliers

Stripe has released it's own protocol with OpenAI (ACP). Both work a bit different technically but the result is similair.
