Adyen Agentic introduces three layers – Agentic Feed, Agentic\nCart, and Agentic Payments – that solve various stages of the customer\njourney in agentic commerce from product discovery to payment.\n\nAs AI platforms bring new agentic commerce surfaces to market, enterprise\nmerchants face a growing integration challenge. Each platform operates on\ndifferent protocols, requires different product data formats, and has\ndifferent cart creation and checkout requirements. Without a universal\ntranslator, every new platform is a new integration project.\n\nAdyen Agentic is designed to be that universal translator. Merchants integrate\nonce. Adyen translates that single integration across every agent platform,\nprotocol, and payment method - so merchants can participate in new commerce\nchannels without rebuilding each time the landscape shifts.\n\nThe Adyen Agentic product includes:\n\n * Agentic Feed: A structured product and inventory layer that distributes real\ntime catalog, pricing, and availability data across conversational commerce\nenvironments.\n * Agentic Cart: An orchestration layer that connects merchants' existing\ncheckout, tax, fulfillment, and order management systems to conversational\ncommerce platforms.\n * Agentic Payments: A payments and fraud layer for agent led transactions,\nenabling authentication, token portability, merchant of record preservation,\nand risk management across evolving protocols.\nEarly participants in the Adyen Agentic ecosystem include strategic partners\nAmerican Express, Mastercard, Salesforce, and Visa; and enterprise retailers\nESW, Scheels, Sézane, and SharkNinja. At announcement, Adyen Agentic is in\nlimited availability for enterprise merchants operating in the U.S., with\nplans for global expansion to follow.\n\n\"Every new agentic surface asks merchants to rebuild from scratch,\" said Karan\nKatyal, Global Head of Agentic Commerce at Adyen. \"We believe the future of\nagentic commerce should be open, so we intentionally designed Adyen Agentic to\nhelp retailers integrate once and participate across evolving platforms,\nprotocols, and experiences — without having to bet on which ecosystems\nultimately win. The ecosystem is evolving rapidly and we're excited to enable\ninnovative merchants to experiment with agentic commerce first-hand.\"\n\nAdyen Agentic is built as an open ecosystem layer rather than a closed\ncommerce environment. The product variants are modular and merchants will be\nable to work with their existing e-commerce platform. Merchants retain control\nover customer relationships, transaction routing, payment flexibility, and\nbusiness logic regardless of which platforms or protocols ultimately scale.\nThe infrastructure is built on Adyen's existing enterprise-grade foundation:\nthe same tokenization, authentication, and fraud capabilities that process\ntrillions of dollars in payments annually.\n\n\"The rapid evolution of Agentic Commerce protocols means retailers need a\ntrusted partner who stays ahead of the curve. With Adyen Agentic, we were able\nto build on proven, battle-tested foundations to deploy quickly and\nconfidently. As the agentic ecosystem grows, the solution will allow us to\nseamlessly reach consumers across every emerging commerce platform,\" Nicolas\nBenoist, CTO at Sezane.\n\n\"For agentic commerce to scale, trust, security and interoperability need to\nbe built in from the start,\" said Sherri Haymond, executive vice president,\nGlobal Head of Digital Commercialization at Mastercard. \"Equally critical is\nenabling merchants — making data discoverable and machine‑readable so they\ncan participate as models and protocols evolve. With Agent Pay, Mastercard is\nhelping establish a strong foundation for secure, scalable agent‑driven\ntransactions, while solutions like Adyen Agentic are contributing to a more\nvibrant, connected ecosystem.\"\n\n\"The future of commerce won't be built platform by platform; it will run on\ninteroperable infrastructure,\" said Rubail Birwadker, SVP, Head of Growth\nProducts & Partnerships, Visa. \"Together with Adyen, Visa is helping make\npayments agent-ready from the start, embedding trust, security and global\nacceptance into every transaction, no matter where or how it's initiated.\"\n\nAdyen Agentic is fully compatible with Meta's AI checkout, with more platforms\nto come. This builds alongside Adyen's foundational work as an early endorser\nof the Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP) — which was co-developed by Google\nand other industry leaders — as well, as the Agent Payments Protocol (AP2)\nand OpenAI's Agentic Commerce Protocol (ACP).\n\nTo learn more about Adyen Agentic, visit\nhttps://www.adyen.com/agentic-commerce\n(https://edge.prnewswire.com/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=4712137-1&h=385176403&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.adyen.com%2Fagentic-commerce&a=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.adyen.com%2Fagentic-commerce)\n.\n\nAbout Adyen\nAdyen (AMS: ADYEN) is the financial technology platform of choice for leading\ncompanies.
