Worldline, ING, and Visa Achieve Live Agentic Payment Transaction in Europe

Worldline, ING, and Visa have successfully completed a live agent-driven payment transaction in Europe. The demonstration shows how AI-enabled payment journeys can function within regulatory frameworks like Strong Customer Authentication, enhancing customer control and merchant trust.

In this German trial, a consumer automated a purchase using an AI agent, defining conditions like product and timing. Visa Payment Passkeys provided biometric authentication, with ING authorizing the payment. Worldline's infrastructure ensured a secure and seamless process.

The initiative reinforces Worldline's role in evolving the European payment landscape, with ING and Visa contributing to trusted payment advancements. This collaboration highlights agentic payments' potential to transform digital commerce by maintaining security and trust.
