"ChatGPT wants to be your personal shopper. PayPal announced Tuesday that its digital payment system will be integrated into ChatGPT, inviting anyone who uses it to shop directly from the chatbot. Starting next year, ChatGPT users will be able to check out with a click through a PayPal account and connect directly with the tens of millions of sellers who rely on PayPal's payments system."
""By partnering with OpenAI and adopting the Agentic Commerce Protocol, PayPal will power payments and commerce experiences that help people go from chat to checkout in just a few taps for our joint customer bases," PayPal CEO Alex Chriss said in a press release. PayPal's shares rose on the news, which was announced on the same day as the company's quarterly earnings report."
PayPal will integrate its digital payment system into ChatGPT, enabling users to check out with a PayPal account and connect with tens of millions of PayPal sellers starting next year. The integration leverages the Agentic Commerce Protocol to move users from chat to checkout in a few taps. PayPal is also pursuing AI shopping initiatives with Google and Perplexity. PayPal reported stronger positioning and execution momentum, and shares rose on the integration announcement. OpenAI previously integrated Shopify and Etsy via an instant checkout platform built with Stripe, with Etsy results already surfacing in chat shopping prompts.
