In brief: OpenAI is launching ChatGPT Wallet, a payment tool that lets its Dots AI agents make purchases on behalf of users. Rolling out today for ChatGPT Pro subscribers in the U.S. aged 18 and older, the wallet accepts eligible U.S.-issued American Express, Chase, Mastercard and Visa cards. Every purchase requires biometric verification such as Face ID or a fingerprint scan, and OpenAI substitutes actual card details with a payment token so card info is never shared with the agent or the merchant.
Key questions
Who is eligible to use ChatGPT Wallet?
ChatGPT Wallet is available to ChatGPT Pro subscribers in the U.S. aged 18 and older with a U.S. billing address and eligible U.S.-issued American Express, Chase, Mastercard or Visa cards.
Will ChatGPT Wallet work at all retailers?
Not necessarily — some retailers have restrictions on AI agents or block them altogether, and payment and risk systems need to recognize purchases made by agents for the wallet to function.
