Cross River Expands Stripe Partnership for Agent Payments
Cross River Expands Stripe Partnership for Agent Payments #
Cross River is expanding its partnership with Stripe to support card issuing for agentic commerce. The setup allows Stripe to offer businesses a way for AI agents to make card payments on behalf of verified users, using payment credentials tied to a specific user authorisation
The model uses restricted, single-use virtual cards for specific transactions, limiting the agent’s access to the customer’s underlying payment details. The announcement matters because agent-led commerce requires payment infrastructure that can verify the user, the agent, transaction scope and compliance obligations across card network, KYC and AML requirements.
