Financial services platform Stripe has introduced a digital wallet called Link, designed for the AI era where autonomous agents can perform tasks ranging from shopping to paying for reservations.

This new wallet allows users to connect various payment methods, track spending and view recurring subscriptions. It also enables users to integrate their AI agents, giving them permission to spend on behalf of the user without exposing payment credentials.

To work, users grant their agent access via an OAuth flow, allowing it to create a spend request, which requires approval by the user before any payment information is shared with the AI. The wallet supports traditional payment methods and Stripe says support for agentic tokens, stablecoins and other types of payments will be added soon.

Developers and businesses building agents or AI personal assistants can use Link’s wallet instead of creating their own from scratch. This new service by Stripe is a step towards making autonomous spending more secure and user-friendly.
