Link Launches Wallet for AI Agents Built on Stripe Issuing
Integrate Link wallet for agents by using Stripe Issuing APIs to create spend requests and handle consumer approvals via OAuth and the Link mobile/web UI.
Integrate Link wallet for agents by adding Stripe Issuing API calls to your agent platform, implement OAuth consumer authorization, and build approval UI in your app.
Summary
Link has launched a wallet for AI agents that sits on top of Stripe's new Issuing for agents. The wallet lets developers give agents programmatic access to a one‑time‑use card or a Shared Payment Token (SPT) without exposing raw payment credentials. Consumers authorize spend requests through an OAuth flow and can approve each request on the web or via Link's iOS/Android apps. The wallet scopes credentials by amount, currency, and merchant, and supports future payment types such as stablecoins. Stripe Issuing for agents provides the full API set for custom card creation, spending controls, fraud monitoring, and real‑time activity. The CLI example shows how to create a spend request with merchant details and context. This infrastructure removes the need for agents to build their own wallet logic and gives them a secure, scalable payment channel.
