[Visa Launches CLI Tool to Enable AI Agents to Automate Payments] Odaily Planet Daily reports that Visa Crypto Labs has released a command-line interface (CLI) tool, allowing AI agents to initiate secure, automated payment operations directly in terminal environments. This marks a further step in the implementation of 'AI-native payment' infrastructure. The tool enables payments to be completed through text commands without the need for traditional API key management or human intervention, allowing developers to empower bots, scripts, and automated processes to directly invoke payment capabilities. Visa stated that this will significantly reduce the complexity of integrating payment systems into AI frameworks. Currently, the product is in the testing phase, and users can apply for access via their GitHub accounts. Visa emphasized that as AI agents evolve from 'answering questions' to 'executing tasks,' including calling APIs, purchasing computing power, and completing machine-to-machine transactions, payment systems must also upgrade to support automated transactions in command-line environments (Command Line Commerce). Meanwhile, various industry players are also working on AI payment standards. Coinbase and Cloudflare are advancing the x402 protocol, while Stripe and Tempo have introduced the Machine Payments Protocol (MPP). Visa has announced its integration of MPP to support card payments within its global network, complementing other AI payment protocols.
