Nuvei
In short
Nuvei ran a live agent purchase on 2 July 2026 in which a merchant's own AI agent paid with a tokenised Visa credential, with six issuing partners named. It is building Nuvei Agentic, a protocol-neutral layer with a registry that credentials agents, aimed at the second half of 2026. Third-party agents are not yet supported.
