Ant International introduced the Agentic Mobile Protocol (AMP) for the agentic commerce industry to enable secure, AIOps-native agentic payment connection to mobile services, including digital wallets, banking apps, super apps, and mobile portals from phones to wearable devices.
“We are deeply grateful for partners, acquirers and developers who contributed to this project. An agentic protocol for mobile commerce that ensures superior efficiency and security results will be key for businesses large and small expanding into the world's fastest growing markets. We look forward to expanding our multi-layered partnerships to enable real-world successes of AI commerce,” says Jiang-Ming Yang, chief innovation officer, Ant International.
Key takeaways:
· With the Agentic Mobile Protocol, merchants – LLMs, AI platforms, merchants with self-developed agents, and agent builders – and digital wallets can embed agentic payment functionality directly into their workflows, eliminating the need for system overhauls.
· The AMP framework features a superior agentic checkout experience through faster agent integration; money-back guarantee; and cross-device compatibility; a more efficient and secure trust architecture for agent delegation; a high-frequency agent-to-agent settlement mechanism that enables automated, ultra-small transactions between AI agents; and a full-spectrum Know Your Agent framework that establishes an agent's digital identity and certifies its authorized capabilities.
