OpenAI launches ChatGPT Wallet for US Pro agent purchases
November 13: The Verge adds Chase as an eligible issuer, a US billing-address requirement, and says Amazon blocks Meta’s Muse.
US ChatGPT Pro users 18 and older can approve each agent purchase with a biometric check while networks issue a payment token.
OpenAI launched ChatGPT Wallet so agents, called dots or Dots, can complete purchases after the user reviews the items, total and selected card and approves with Face ID, a fingerprint or a similar check. American Express, Mastercard and Visa issue a token or stand-in number, so the agent and merchant do not receive the real card details. Access starts with some US ChatGPT Pro subscribers age 18 or older who hold eligible US-issued cards; rewards and eligible dispute protections stay on the selected card. OpenAI published a Commerce Partner Playbook and says spending-limit delegation is later, not current. According to The Decoder, Instant Checkout was dropped as too inflexible. TechCrunch reports Amazon blocks AI shopping agents, and OpenAI warns some sites may block or decline agent checkouts. The Verge also lists Chase among eligible cards and requires a US billing address.
