Visa's agentic commerce vision, in action

Visa, BILL and Billtrust recently launched a live pilot that enables trusted AI agents to initiate and complete approved buyer invoice payments end-to-end through supplier portals.

Until now, many payment portals relied on human authentication requirements that limited how approved payments could be automated. This pilot enables a trusted AI agents to be securely authenticated to credentialed portals, streamlining the process while preserving the supplier control and oversight.

"Businesses should not have to choose between automating payments and control when making payments," said Mark Nelsen, SVP and Head of Product, Commercial & Money Movement Solutions, Visa. "This pilot applies agentic commerce to a real B2B-payment problem, by having trusted agents complete payments across platforms. Working with BILL and Billtrust, we are testing how identity, payment controls and transaction visibility will make that model work.”
