Agentic commerce represents a transformative opportunity for companies poised to usher in the next era of e-commerce by using conversational AI. Especially when it comes to the payment process of agentic commerce.

The last few months have been a whirlwind of activity in the AI realm, with agentic commerce being a hot topic. We’re starting to slide towards calling this agentic payments, where agentic (being capable of acting independently) is really just a fancy word for an AI model acting on behalf of a user.

Agentic commerce is a term we have been using a lot lately at VGS. But what does agentic commerce mean? How do payments fit into the agentic commerce space? We broke it down for you so you can better understand agentic commerce as a whole and where payments fall into the AI commerce landscape.

AI is clearly mainstream. The skyrocketing user growth on the big AI platforms, the threat to Web 2.0 household names like Google and Meta, the roller coaster of the AI chip makers: AI has filled headlines for a few years now.
