GoKawiilOpenAI Launches ChatGPT Wallet for AI-Assisted Purchases
OpenAI has introduced ChatGPT Wallet, letting its AI agents help select products and complete checkout on a user's behalf. The feature is initially limited to a small group of U.S. ChatGPT Pro subscribers aged 18+ who hold a U.S.-issued Visa, Mastercard, or American Express card. Users must review item details, total cost, and payment card, then approve each purchase with biometric verification like Face ID or a fingerprint.

The launch signals OpenAI's push to turn ChatGPT into a commerce platform, potentially reshaping how consumers discover and buy products online. Requiring explicit biometric approval and preserving credit card protections suggests OpenAI is trying to address trust and fraud concerns before expanding the feature more broadly. Its success could pressure other AI companies and retailers to build similar agentic shopping tools.
