Coinbase Enables Businesses to Get Paid by AI Agents
Coinbase announced in an Aug. 11 blog post that its Coinbase Business suite now permits businesses to accept payments from artificial intelligence agents. The checkouts already offered by Coinbase can now process AI-agent payments via x402, an open standard for machine-to-machine payments.
Why it matters — This expansion into AI-agent payments could broaden Coinbase's commercial payments use cases and position it for growth in emerging machine-to-machine commerce.
