OpenAI ChatGPT Wallet launch

The part that matters most here is that it won't run in regular ChatGPT conversations. You'd need the OpenAI agent known as 'dot' set up first. That's the fine print on ChatGPT Wallet, which Nexta reports is OpenAI's new way to let AI agents buy things on someone's behalf. Linking a card happens through a secure form inside the wallet itself. From there the agent hunts down products, picks items out, and gets an order ready. Nothing goes through until the person reviews who the seller is, what's in the order, and what it all costs, then approves with a biometric check like Face ID or Touch ID. Card numbers and security codes never reach the merchant. A payment token stands in for them, a virtual set of credentials tied back to the original card, though whatever gets bought still lands as a charge on the bank card that was linked. At launch the door is narrow: eligible users in the U.S., a ChatGPT Pro subscription, and a compatible card issued in the U.S. The screen tease says it plainly. 'Coming soon A little wallet. A world of possibilities. Your Wallet is on its way.'
